Whewwww!!!

It's amazing how heavily a big assignment can weigh on you. I pulled an all-nighter Monday night, to finish that evil grant proposal! I'd been getting good sleep previous to this, so actually it wasn't so bad. I had Law & Order marathons and VH1 insomniac theatre to keep me company.

The bad part was that it made Tuesday a sort of surreal, endless day. It's better if you get some sleep between waiting for the bus in the morning somehow. Tuesday was a loooong day, and I didn't get home till 8:30--passed out happily and fully at 10PM, then back to school in the morning yo.

So now I'm getting back to *normal* life. You know, like being happy and caring about how I look and listening to new music, etc. I guess horrible homework assignments help you to appreciate life without homework assignments. Yeah, that makes sense.

There's alot of life to take care of now, from buying bus tickets home to starting to figure out who's lab I'll go to for my thesis work. My rotation that I started just this week rules soooo much. The lab folk are very friendly and open, and my principle investigator (PI) is freaking freaking awesome. And my project is cool.

So I'm going to start D&D with Dave and his boyz (hee hee!) on Sunday. Time to be an elfish thief/fighter yo. Also picked up the extended Two Towers, but need to find a space of time that Dave and I can sit down and watch the huge thing.

On the recommendation of Chris from WV, I bought:

Me First and the Gimme Gimme's "Are a Drag"

Frankly, it rules. It's basically all covers done in a driving, punky sort of rock. "Science Fiction Double Feature" to "Rainbow Connection."!!! Ach!

Ok, gotta get dressed and read damn papers for class, damnit. Much love to you all!
