when did this happen?
Shit. I'm an adult. I have to wake up at 6.30am tomorrow to get to Warwick for a staff meeting, which will be followed by a meeting with the professor who is convening the course on which I'll be teaching a seminar. I have three classes this year--all year--which is A LOT for a first time teacher. Tomorrow will be my first chance to try this awesome new 3 1/2 hour (one way) commute I subjected myself to by moving to London. Yeeeahh....regretting that right about now.
The weekend was good though. Friday night was drunken fun at a dog-friendly pub down a random Islington alley, followed by lots of sleep and a full Saturday of cycling around north and east London. Some highlights there include stumbling upon a French market, hearing a djembe class practice on the green of Finsbury Park, and making kissy sounds at/with the pygmy goats who live surprisingly close to me. This has also been the weekend of resurrecting X-Men Vs Streetfighter, and there's been lots and lots of ass-whoopin' here in N4 (guess who just got a Mod-Chip for her US PS1?!)
But none of that tonight. Now I'm an adult. I cleaned the house on Sunday and am now going to bed early to wake up for work on Monday. I haven't had to do this since I worked the morning shift at Borders about 4 years ago, but at least working there felt like playing most of the time. God, what the hell happened? You'd think I should at least be getting an adult paycheck...
