Late again!
I keep making these entries after midnight and backdating them, sometimes because I'm not home until after midnight (an occurrence that will get more and more frequent), and sometimes because time passes like the WIND and I look at the clock and go, "12:15. Oops."
My plan to be a good, working grad student...didn't go over so well this weekend. Observe:
Friday -
Intention - Work on lots of stuff for my Survey of Phonetic Theory class
What actually happened - Rewatch of SPN with Pea and Mari (this happens every Friday, and I had allotted for it), which was interrupted by being cajoled out to a lesbian bar. As protection, which I will never stop cracking up about. Said were going for only one drink; I ended up having two apple martinis while playing pool against a very nice couple who, nevertheless, mopped the floor with SM and I. Returned to the Lab for Loney to continue bouncing stuff off my head; also ended up editing some documents for things school-related, but not actually school.
Saturday
Intention - Work after Project meeting and short appearance at Iphi's party on lots of stuff for Survey of Phonetic Theory class.
What actually happened - Project meeting ran into Serious Friggin' Headache territory. Laid on a dark floor to recover, then went to Iphi's party. Tried to leave once, ended up going back to keep Vie company. Had a Smirnoff Green Tea (quite tasty! just like green tea!). Finally left and went back to the Lab, where assisted Loney at FreeRice and...didn't do anything. Left after midnight to go home and chat for two hours.
Sunday
Intention - Put in both decanting time and work on stuff for Survey of Phonetic Theory class.
What actually happened - Went to three o'clock meeting that didn't end until about six-thirty. Then went to wine and cheese party, skipping meeting with Root (she said it was okay!). Left wine and cheese party a few hours later for VI, where realized didn't have laptop cord. Had pie. Came home and read more of kroki_refur's picspam reviews for SPN.
(Speaking of which, SPN fans, go and enjoy!)
Basically, I spent the weekend drinking and partying (in a fairly subdued way). It's like I crammed the entire "undergrad" experience into a weekend and can get back to work. Right? Right? Totally right?
...yeah, I'm screwed.
