simultaneously winding down and up

Yesterday I had my orchestra concert and wrote my Spanish paper, and today I took my German test. I still need to write two papers for interpretation of lit. by Thursday, do a German oral proficiency interview on Wednesday, and write two "concert attendance" things for orchestra. After that, I have a down week, followed by a breezy interpretation of literature final, relatively scary (and grade-determining) finals for Spanish and intro to linguistics, and final papers for Spanish and German. I can do it.

Plans are maybe coming together for a trip to Texas for a couple days this summer. The prospect excites me.

Also money is suddenly looming as a huge issue again, much like it did last fall. I'm pretty scared about this, but probably the money thing will resolve itself much like it did last fall and I will end up with plenty of dollars that I don't know what to do with. But for now I'm terrified.

I don't think I ever wrote this in here, but a couple weeks ago my 72-year-old multimillionaire great uncle married a "smoking hot" (as my 22-year-old cousin put it) 22-year-old Peruvian girl who doesn't speak English but responds to "Serve your master" and bends down to tie his shoes. She was a servant for the family of his ex-wife who left him about a year ago, who was also from Lima, and his new wife is one of the big reasons his old wife is not his wife anymore. The whole family is in uproar about this scandal.

I need to go to the Credit Union and then to the library. I don't think I'm going to work today. I love that I can just not go to work if I don't want to.
