And finally there's some good news. I am quite excited at the moment. I'd be more excited if I hadn't previously been in such a horrible mood which still has some residual lingering. But give me an hour and I'm sure that   I'll up my status to elated. So, by the end of last week, it seemed that my chances of being allowed to do an honors project were about epsilon from zero and they weren't budging on that. And all I heard was doom and gloom. This morning I went to talk to my proposed USRA supervisor to ask if I should change my USRA application essay to reflect that I would no longer be doing an honors project. And we talked a bit and I tried my best to express that I was really upset by the department's decision, not blaming him, and explaining my feelings. He told me that he understood what I meant and that he'd talk to the honors advisor and see what's what. And then this afternoon he told me that it wasn't officially off the books until the following year (it takes two years to get things changed in the general calendar) and that if I got someone to agree to supervise me then I could do it. And, after he's last few weeks expression of doubt, he agreed to be my supervisor. And I couldn't be happier. That's just so much off of my mind. And things are finally falling into place again. I don't think I could thank him enough for going to bat for me. SO, ya, yeah for me!
In other news, this weekend I spent a lot of time furiously kniting and managed to make myself the official Kittyville hat. Think hat with kitty ears and pompoms. I will get a picture posted next time I post from my home computer. Lots of fun! I've been wearing it all day. Reminds me of my tiara wearing days...

kittyville, honors project, excitement
