Do you have anything fun planned for after-Monday? Because you'd totally deserve that.
Illyria: We cling to what is gone. Is there anything in this life but grief? Wesley: There's love. There's hope...for some. There's hope that you'll find something worthy...that your life will lead you to some joy...that after everything...you can still be surprised. Illyria: Is that enough? Is that enough to live on?

Actually now, thinking about it, I think I've treated stuff as both singular and plural.
This page says that it's a mass noun:
X-post.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh yeah. Tuesday I'm thinking I'll clean my house, and I think a friend is having people over on Wednesday, and then graduation is Thursday and Friday, and there will be much celebrating and parties and stuff. Yay.

Sue, I wonder if it can be a regional thing, or something like that? Either way, thanks for not only trying to help, but also sharing my confusion.
[Edit:

I hope you're not in such dire state that cleaning looks like fun to you. Everything else on your list reads really fun, though.
Oh, and 6*7=42]

My apartment is in a truly dire state, and as of Monday most of what's cluttering it up can just go in the trash! Or recycling.

A friend who is doing her Masters' now (though she's only at her first year) likes to say that just in these times of the most urgent need to sit and study, when the material bores her and she really truly doens't want to sit and study, that's the time when suddenly she notices how her apartment needs cleaning, how she really needs to cook healthier food, with a long and complicated list of instructions, even how she suddenly re-connects with all friends and aquitances, because even looking up their phone numbers and talking to them seems more appealing than studying.
OK, that was a really long sentence.

Sadly, I find a way to read the entire internet before I do anything at all useful, either for my personal life or my academic life!

Yeah, I guess there are advantages to so much of the internet being in English and her not wanting to read English unless she has to.
There's enough internet in Hebrew to prevent me from getting to actually doing anything, just fine, though, for the record. So I don't know how she stops herself from that. Oh, and I've never even checked any other languages.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Bah. It's only 10:37? That's unpossible. Obviously there's been some sort of relativistic time slowing, like, say, some massive object near the Universal Time Keeper....

tommy, I'm sorry. You're suffering from a severe case of WrongTimezone-itis. Nothing that a little trip over an ocean or two can't cure.
