Yesterday I....
Drove to Ithaca to get a new phone since mine is dead-so give me all of your cell phone numbers because I lost mine!
Had office hours and tried to help someone figure out SPSS to no avail...
Had an SFA meeting that made me cry and found comfort in one of the least likely people-but a person who I owe my sanity yesterday to for simply letting me sob into her shoulder as she soothed me and told me it wouldn't be ok, but it would be better.
Had sem with Professor Hill in which for the first time ever in class I cried my eyes out. We talked about race, about Wells, about prejudice, about optimism and pessimism, about the future of Wells and the future of humanity.
****For the record, if you are not a senior-don't say things like "at least you GET to leave" because while we may be escaping co-education, and we may claim to want to leave, most of us, at least myself, are heartbroken to leave a college that we have worked SO HARD to shape in a place that is so unstable****
Then I went to the faculty meeting. I would sound conceited if I said I kicked ass, but I did and I don't care if it makes me conceited. Although it's a little heartbreaking to know that the student body is more intelligent than the professors. And more open to diversity also.
Then Interhall Board which was long but had Williard the kitty.
Then here to work on my thesis. I arrived in my room for the first time in 16 hours and saw a sticker that McClusky gave me that says "We're doomed as doomed can be" and smiled for the first time in a long long time.
The end
