(no subject)
I last updated about the weekend. Yesterday I had lab, class, and class. It was nice and warm :) I ran a cute little subject in the lab, watched a movie about health care in Communist China in history, and went through alternating stages of sleep in Moral & Social Issues. A blah day. Today it was nice again. although hotter, and I had Intro to SW class, where we watched people's presentations. Had my last field work class. Then I went to art therapy, and that was good. Really nothing I want to write about that.
Tomorrow is lab, class, then going home for dinner for Taylor's birthday. Work and teaching Thursday, work Friday. Then this weekend....??????
