my last class was thursday, and it went okay. but then i was nearly dramatic due to lack of nourishment. i tricked myself into feeling well enough to go to the final yoga class. it was a silly class. when i returned home i found a had made a lentil pie that was so co-opy and good. we were going to go get martinis, but n. stayed home and thus, although we thought about it, we also stayed home and just read books in bed. that was probably good because i fell asleep around 10.
i gave myself friday and saturday morning off from the school stuff. while i accomplished a few things on friday- such as getting my oil changed and purchasing some items to give as gifts the day flew by without much happening. n. came over and ate some bizarre soup i cooked while a. baked a coffee cake. (i ate the soup today with the pesto scraps and it was much better).
saturday morning n. and i hosted brunch at my place. it was fun! it was the first time in ages that i've been in a room with more than one person and made it the entire time without feeling like everyone hated me. i didn't feel hated at all! it feels truly excellent to not feel hated. we had good food, coffee, and beautiful bloody marys. i feel resolved to make a habit of such breakfast based gatherings next semester.
i spent the afternoon working my my paper for red. (it's not great, but whatever). i wrote and wrote and went for a walk and wrote some more. at 7 i quit to go watch the science of sleep, which i enjoyed even more this (the second) time. the auditorium was relatively full. i've never seen that many people at a ryder screening before. c. gave me a ride home and instead of working on my paper i started knitting and then went to bed early.
today i worked on the paper all day. i took time for bathing, yoga, and cooking, but it was just write write write. i brought home the second draft to revise tonight, but i'm avoiding it. i could be working on preparing for my archives exam, but instead i felt it necessary to make a post. i'm washing my hands of this semester slowly but surely. i am feeling better already. i am looking forward to the future. a future that does not involve the state of indiana or anything related to schoolwork. i am looking forward to friends and trips and cups of tea. i have the distinct feeling that i've made it through this semester, even though it isn't truly over until wednesday when i turn in my bloody blue book.
