Kat, how are you feeling?

Good, VW, thanks for asking. I mean freaked out, overwhelmed, vaguley uncomfortable and unclear on how I got to this point, but physically good. Except I didn't do my homework for today.

how are you doing? Were you inconvenienced by the light brite scare?

Okay random question for the ages:

Why are maternity clothes made in horizontal stripes? Seriously.

Also, what do you do when coworker has a baby 4 months before you and gives the baby the EXACT names you adore?

All of those things sound relatively normal. Including the homework :). Welcome to being a student! I'm glad you're doing well. I haven't gotten to "talk" to you much lately.

I'm doing well--really well, actually. I was not too inconvenienced by the light brite scare, which is amazing, since I ride both of the T lines that were closed, during the times that they were closed, without incident. I got lucky, I guess.

Because stupid people design them. Still.

Use 'em anyway. It's a co-worker. It's not like it's family.

It's cool to think that the city responded in a way that was mostly effective and efficient. Even if it was over something so, to most, clearly not a threat.

Gah. homework. I should put on clothes to wear for the rest of the day and go have brekkie and a hot tea and THEN do my work. Class starts at 8. dont' want to go.

Are you done with school, VW? I feel awful for not remembering.

Don't feel awful! It's so hard to keep up with everyone.

I am not done. Actually, I've got two years left! GAH! But, it's moving along well.

Two years! whoa! I cannot imagine that. I have the poetry class I'm taking today and another class that lasts for two weeks in Hawaii on a cruise starting next week (CRUISE! HAWAII!) and then my thesis. Thesis = scary bane of my existance. I'm vaguely freaked about it.

I must finish my proposal draft before we go to Hawaii. Or maybe in Hawaii.

Wow! Go you! The end is near!

Thesis = scary bane of my existance. I'm vaguely freaked about it.

Me too. I'm in the honors program, so I have to do a thesis. I'm in a thesis planning prep class right now, which I'm hoping is going to ease some of the freaking. Of course, I have an idea of what I want to do, which is more than some people, so I guess I'm on track.

Class in Hawaii! On a cruise! That would be awesome!

Well, I just shower and get going. Hope you have a good day! Good luck with the homework!

Thanks! have a good day yourself.
