I submitted the rest of my graduate school applications today.  Geoff's taking me to the post office on Thursday to send out my transcripts, and that will complete this process.  Then it's up to the school people to decide whether they want me or not.  *twitch*  Dr. Baechler says UCSC kicks butt, his daughter did a summer thing there and loved it.  I hope I at least get to their interview stage... I'd like to at least see the campus.  And maybe I look better in person than on paper...  I hate this whole thing.  I'm so glad I didn't have to do this for undergrad, it's very nerve wracking.  Geoff says we'll go where I get accepted, but what if I don't get accepted anywhere?  I get the feeling that a job search would be just as, if not more agonizing than the grad school search.

In other news, Geoff has his neurologist appointment on Thursday.  I hope something can be done.  He's been pretty good recently, just talking and not moving around too much, but it always comes back.  He starts classes on Monday, but he only actually has class on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday.  Mornings, Mondays, and Fridays are research time since he finally gets to start on his thesis stuff.  Amusingly enough, he's doing protein kinetics stuff.  :-)  I've been slowly cleaning the apartment, trying to find places for things and getting rid of trash.  I think our stuff is reproducing.  I don't know where it all comes from...  So far, our budgeting is going well.  Geoff canceled the cable, no more Netflix, and we kept the grocery bill under $75 this week.  I forsee a lot of pasta in our future, but we've also started exercising together to get more fit this semester.  Once our respective classes start we'll be going to the gym too.  He has a weight loss goal, I want to wear size 10 pants.  Hopefully we'll both succeed.  Speaking of which, it's time for evening exercises.  So long!
