This week has been rather hellish. The sheriff found the body of my high school friend. W had a speech language eval on Monday, so I sent an email to the secretary to cancel my class. She got distracted, so she didn't. I had to give a brief presentation at the Dean's reception on Tuesday (he saw me today with Becky, and I could tell that he was trying to work out how he knew me. Today is Friday.) Wednesday, I went to the Robert Kennedy Jr. lecture (which was wonderful). Thursday was Vino, plus W's progress reports came in. He is failing some of his classes. FAILING? I never failed a class. A test maybe, but not a class.
I need to go pick up the little dears. We have a quiet weekend planned. I am going to get some kids clothes ready for a consignment sale, so I can buy them more clothes. Or maybe purge a bit. We have too much stuff for our house. Or maybe we don't have enough house for our stuff? Either way, we have a mess. Right now, my entire house looks like a child's bedroom. Even to the clothes and toys strewn all over the living room floor. Part of it is my fault. I can admit that. I have my grad school stuff strung out. But that is everywhere. Maybe I should start by containing that.

i'm actually in a renaissance tragedy class now. we've read everyman and dr. faustus. up next are macbeth, king lear, the tragedy of mariam, the changeling, the white devil....and some others i can't think of right now. 13 plays total, and i have to do a summary of a critical article on all of them. it's a great assignment though. i'm getting better is waxing philosophically (even though most of the time i don't know what the hell i'm talking about.)
it's getting a lot better for me. i'm really starting to like this who grad school thing.
you deleted your comment, and i thought it was so funny. "an atheist spy who's probably gay." sounds like my kind of man. lol.
i'm such a dork. i read macbeth yesterday afternoon, and i loved it. i mean, i was really excited about it.
