Well, I'm a great idiot. Today was Tuesday, not Monday, and I didn't have the classes I thought I did at all. Unfortunately, I didn't figure this out til the first of them was starting and I was still home. Thankfully, I was still able to get there and it was all first-day-of-class stuff - mostly going over the syllabus.
Anyway, the classes I have Tuesdays and Thursdays are government from 9:30 - 10:50 (yawn) and cultural studies from 11:00 - 12:20. I think I'm going to really enjoy that one, actually; the class is entitled "Out and About: Queer Life and American Culture."
I got to watch the inauguration ceremony after all! My professors for my cultural studies class (it's a joint-taught one) had it streaming in the classroom when I got there, and I made it just in time to see Biden and then Obama both get sworn in. YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!
I'm only about a hundred and twenty pages from the end of The Other Boleyn Girl, and enjoying it intensely. Happily, I also have the sequel in my car! And I still have American Gods I have lots of reading material still when I'm done.
I got a phone call from my mother about an hour and a half ago saying she'd taken Kimmie (that's my sister) to the emergency room after her basketball game. A few weeks back she was having intense stomach pains, and she went to a couple of different doctors but no-one could ever say for sure what was wrong with her; she was prescribed a couple of different medications, I think, and to the best of my knowledge it went away for a while but apparently now it's back. When I talked to my mother on the phone she described it as "like cramps, but higher up, in her stomach." I'm still waiting to hear back from her on more.
