Restless Spirits

My applications for Graduate School are due very soon; however, two of my professors have yet to complete my recommendations and they have been very elusive lately. I have sent several e-mails already and it's becoming increasingly redundant. I even left messages with their secretaries! Luckily, my schedule for the spring semester is really open, as I only have class Tuesdays and Thursdays. I have a strange feeling that I'm going to have to hunt these professors down when school starts again and drive up to Boston and down to New Haven myself just to make sure that the applications get in on time. Talk about a road trip!

Needless to say, I really can't stress myself out about things that are beyond my control right now. I will make things work one way or another, even if I have to call out of work and drive all over New England.

I own a new Dell Inspiron now. It was sent to me as a replacement for my old Dell Inspiron which was still under warranty -- yes, the Dell that I bought almost four years ago. Technology has improved quite a bit since that time so old Inspirons are no longer manufactured anymore. Therefore the company was forced to send me a much newer computer. It's got a huge screen and it's double the speed of my old one, good deal. I am still a Mac-aholic though and I don't plan on changing that any time soon, even if this computer is faster than my iBook.

I created a website several months ago called Sacred Oak, located at www.sacredoak.net. I use my sacredoak account for e-mail mainly, and I haven't sat myself down to design even basic framework for the website. I am hoping to begin that process soon. The vacation has prompted me to indulge in every book on Paganism that I can find, which has opened a floodgate of inspiration. Unfortunately for me, channeling that energy into creating something as time-consuming as a website is going to be difficult.
