And now... the real entry
Jun. 5th, 2004 11:52 amNot too very much to report again... weeks passing by in a blur will do that to you.
As I was posting yesterday's entry Lisa DeCarolis caught me and stopped to chat for a bit... *sigh* There's just nothing good on Green Street anymore - they're pulling out all of the student computing from the basement of Seelye and dumping it in the basement of Wright hall! *sigh* I mean really, what is Smith without the Seelye lab? I don't want to talk about how many memories I've got associated with the myriad nooks and crannies of that room, posting to the MSFC and yelling at the vagaries of campus email, not to mention the hours clocked behind the consultant desk talking down suicidal Social Work students after virii, Windows and or disk failures ate their three hundred page theses due in an hour... and now it's gone? *sniffle* And the WAG, which
sundart and I helped recreate in the heyday of Jim Blau as the Mac Dude (who is eaps and bounds cooler than the skankmeister currently serving as the campus Mac guy)? Moment of silence...
Lisa's going to Tibet, how cool is that? (Does that woman go anyplace normal for vacation? sheesh. She's been more cool places than I can shake a stick at...) I told her that she MUST come visit the Casita this summer so we can finally have our long delayed lasagna party.
The Dean meeting was very quick and productive - I have to head over to HCC and register for the Linear Algebra class and get all sorts of paperchasing shit done after work on Monday... then I have to get my work hours flopped to the afternoon on Tuesdays and Thursdays, which won't be any sort of big deal. Came home, spent an hour and a half or so on the phone with the Airman which was kinda fun and a little weird, but overall okay, and then made the mistake of falling asleep afterwards. Which would have been fine if I hadn't promised to meet sundart downtown at 5:15. I was awakened by a passing ice cream truck at 5:30 and was so flipped out about being late that for once I wasn't filled with the usual urge to throw bricks at things that the lilting strains of "Turkey in the Straw" usually cause. Leapt upon Bellenoire and raced downtown, nearly mowing over several pedestrians in my hurry.
Sunny-D and I did a little shopping and since she had a hard day of work aggravation and too much headspace lately (I know how that is) one of our stops was Herrells for a little bit of ice cream. *blissful sigh* And then home again for Harry Potter and
beatgoddess making strange brownie/cookies that were quite tasty...
Been living in my own head far too much again this week. One one hand, it passes the time, on the other hand... I've got enough trouble with having my head in the clouds and not down in the water where it belongs... (cookie for those who get the reference...)
