soundtrak: high contrast: racing green
terrible tuesday's list:
- whoa. grad school is really trying to rip me a new one, for real. because i'm being funded through another program (i mean, isn't two enough?!), i have to go to this meet-and-greet tomorrow (that i just found out about today) and then i have a meeting with the director of that program on thursday. they moved our mice around, so i have to go do inventory tomorrow morning, before the meet/greet and class (ugh!). i have seminar in less than two weeks and what was supposed to be small and informal is blowing up into crazy proportions. and i haven't even started to work on that presentation yet (double ugh!). because my experiments are working now, i need to move to the next level with that. i just keep running around, not even thinking about what i'm doing, like a chicken with its head cut off. graduate school just got hard.
good grad school news: i just got me a co-mentor, dr. c, who is absolutely awesome. step one, my friends. progress!
- my car: the alternator was bad... very bad. i paid $500 and now she purs. and now i'm poor. i'm on a spending freeze for the rest of this week. G knows where i'm coming from.
- my ipod broke. at first i thought it was just because of that new itunes update, but then as al was describing to me the sensitivty of the ipod disc drive this morning, i remembered how i dropped it in lab the other day, falling flat on its back. and it was never the same after that. it's been two days and i've never felt so naked and vunerable to greasy men's catcalls (i mean, that's why i listen to the ipod all over in the first place). so it has been decided: i'm buying a new ipod... just as soon as i get paid. pictures forthcoming.
- yesterday, i did the warrior moves workout on nikewomen.com (click workout then warrior moves cardio). the moves seemed simple enough and the workout, honestly, didn't look all that difficult. how wrong was i! everything hurts right now... and when i mean everything, i mean everything. i have done some workouts, but that one takes the cake. i can barely walk. i'm going to try it again tomorrow.
- my cousin (to whom i dub the name 'cuz') came in from kenya today. hopefully, she will be able to continue her schooling here in the states.
- sunday was a good day. D and mic both called which was a special treat. i talked to mic about the state of T and i; how i was disappointed and depressed of where our friendship was ending up. and low and behold, who calls? we talked for a good hour about absolutely nothing. and he's called everyday ever since. seriously, i've been smiling for the past three days. that's just what he does.
and on that absolutely splendid note, i bid you all goodnight.
peace.
