Personal project proving to be a bit more challenging than I had anticipated...but, in all actuality, it truly has not yet begun... so perhaps it won't be such a challenge. We shall see. Not sure exactly what this project will entail or what it will look like... makes me curious.
Professional project is going well (writing grant proposal) so I'm taking the night off. Still got home late (worked late, then went to grocery store) but at least I'm not spending my night in front of a computer... err, shall i say "in front of the computer doing work".
A long lost loved and adored friend contacted me recently (actually, nessa, you might remember her - my college roommate that first year...) and I sent back a message 2 minutes ago that said "yes, it's me! can't wait to talk to you!" I'm very much looking forward to that conversation.
And now it's about 36 minutes until midnight... why do I do this to myself...staying up late... not wanting to rise in the morning? it's not fair to my students. ...perhaps one day i'll be able to balance everything.
take care, be well, and remember to use your thesaurus when seeking the most perfect word (our language is filled with such nuances! shades of meaning! perspectives! tones! and... zzzzzzz)
p.s. called the gas company to disconnect my dryer... they want to charge $75 for the first 30 minutes, then $37 for the next 30minues... I'm about to explode - because the whole project will probably take less than 8 minutes (including moving the dryer away from the wall). I'm temped to do it myself - I know what needs to be done (or at least I've been told)... and then i could call the gas people, tell them I smell gas, ask them to check my handiwork. For some reason it feels dishonest (mostly because it's misrepresenting the truth...although i'm sure i'd smell gas when i unhooked the tubes and stuff) ok, this tangent is over. be well.
