schools and fools and sicknesses and books and yetis and planes and plans.

this and that has got me feeling which and what way.

the beginning of the grad school application process has me feeling a little overwhelmed and perhaps slightly disheartened. two of my four desired schools/professors have been eliminated from my options for the following reasons: looming retirement of professor and dismantlement of program (most likely due to looming retirement of professor who leads program). this gut of mine is telling me the wrong things. things about not ending up in a place i am hoping to be or something like that. i have a secret plan B that may have to be put into action this spring, but i have very silly reasons for being uncertain about this plan B. we'll see how plan A works out first.

being on the twelfth day of sickness does not help my mindset. i had a 45 second chat with a doctor about my condition today. the word "strep" came up and there was a swabbing of my throat, but i won't know what's up until tomorrow.

i'm sure that working as much as i have is not helping my sickness-fighting cells. taking today off was a good idea.

but as a electricity is made of both negative and positive charges, my disposition consists of both negative and positive aspects. the latter follows. being a seller of the book seems to suit me well. the job usually does not demand a lot of me and sometimes i read 'tin tin' comics. also, a pair of plane tickets have been purchased that will take shauna and i to saskatoon and back at the end of october. these are very good things and when i'm not sick life is a pretty sweet fruit.

see how it all evens out?
