you ask why i don't live here; honey, how come you don't move?

At last it is the weekend. Weekends don't really have much significance in the grad student lifestyle, but this one seems to put an end to the most romantically eventful week of my life

No! Don't meet guys on the bus! Yr just giving hope to all of the mouthbreathers who don't know that a book and headphones are a clear "don't talk to me" signal.

I know- we actually discussed this over dinner. He said that had I been wearing headphones he wouldn't have spoken to me, because it would have crossed the line from "mildly invasive" to "totally invasive"... so I think I'm in the clear in terms of setting bad precedents!

sounds great!!! Odd (just from my freaky monastic perspective) and cathartic at once, and, indeed healthy.
I wonder now, how did people describe the experience of being re-started before computers and computer metaphores existed?!

[wikberg]

Ahahaha, it's odd from my perspective, too! If every week was that eventful, I'd probably go insane. I think I have to go back to being a bit monastic myself, perhaps, at least for awhile!
And in English, anyways, before re-starting I guess it was "turning over a new leaf." Which hearkens all the way back to prehistory, perhaps? Very cryptic and forest-living-oriented, it seems to me.
