Besides figuring out what am doing and what want to be doing, need do homework and follow-up for things in motion. Sorry am terse-talking. Heinlein-think is in my brain. Finished rereading The Moon is a Harsh Mistress this morning. Can never quite reconcile to important detail at end of book. Love it extravagantly nonetheless. Don't remember noticing chai so much before.
Good discussion in Veg. Production this AM.... talked about hybrid vs. open-pollinated crop. Seems conclusion is hybrid for commercial generally, heirloom, seedsaving for special markets and non-commerical (like me). Appreciate the many factors Prof takes into consideration. Like being in room of people who think about this stuff, many with real experience. Room full of good brains, many have heart, but realistic. Food is so much more endlessly complex than most people realize.
Going to meet with a new acquaintance in a little bit. Very interested to see what happens there. New social situation for me. Am a little nervous, but know will be valueable experience despite turnout. More about that someday when I'm feeling particularly courageous and self-reflective simultaneously.
Need to read for classes. Apartment viewings this afternoon? Student Alumni Association meeting tonight.
Reading Omnivore's Dilemma now that have had Heinlein fix. Gonna read that, then shift focus to mainly reading what I'm supposed to be reading for school. OD is mentioned so much I decided just want to read once and for all, so *I* can ref it.
Right now mainly in my life think I have figured out better my path. Need to follow thru on it, need to back it up with action, action, thought, more action. Wish more hours in day.
