Went to see Clarion today, in the lovely lovely weather we had.  It started raining an hour into the drive and still hasn't let up.  But it wasn't too awful bad, and the town is small and probably impossible to get lost in; also my grandparents live in a town less than forty-five minutes away from there and grammy comes up to shop.  So if I really ( Read more... )

I'm almost done with course registration already.  It's all done online, and (actually) I didn't even really need to talk to my advisor at all.  I'd already picked out all the courses he suggested (three of which are mandatory core classes).  I just have to wait for the co-requisite permission forms to go through the dept. secretary for my " ( Read more... )

My computer's getting ready to crap out on me.  Seems to be doing all right now, after its second system restore in twelve hours, but I won't be surprised to see the blue screen of death yet again.  I think it's about time to get a new computer, but no can afford it.

Am getting my shit together for grad school applications.  I doubt I'll get in ( Read more... )
