Well, let me just say that it officially sucks to be without internet access. Oh, how I hope that my connection will soon be restored! I have so many posts to catch up with! Quick thoughts about a couple of recent (-ish) posts

Oh, those are CLASSIC...I see an email forward coming on, yep, I do.

Financial Aid situation - I'm leaning towards the loans. I'm already doing 10 hour days with my own work, do I need to add more on top of that? I like sleep too much.

Speaking of sleep: so which one of us is going to reserve the room for Atlanta? Coquette is excited she will be seeing her other mommy soon. She says she's sick of the decor here.

I thought of your quandry yesterday when I was slogging to work in the sleeting ice pellets. I wouldn't normally recommend loans, but any sort of joe-job will require you to get up before noon. And you know how much you love that.

So if you think you can be disciplined and put in 10 hours/day on your own work, I'd take the loans (just this once) and live frugally (according to Dame and Wombat, nunnish living is all the rage this semester). But only if you think you can be disciplined.

That's my nickel's worth of free advice.

Haha, do it up like Foucault -- Discipline AND Punish! bwahahaha

Seriously, I feel like it's a subdued semester, when what I feel most like doing is routinized and working. And sometimes, you just gotta go with it.

Chiquita, I'm on it--that is, if you can stand a room with four instead of two. :-)

EXCELLENT!!!!!!!!!!!

Not only will I have the chance to room with three awesome peeps, but man will my expenses be LOW this time -- I got my plane tix for $150, so with splitting the room 4 ways, maybe the cheezy $300 I get from the GSA will actually be enough to cover most of my expenses for a change!!!!

Happy dance...happy dance...
