Let's try that again

I keep starting posts, saving them as notepad docs and then throwing them away because I'm just not feeling it any more. Mainly it's this feeling that I don't have that much interesting to say or the time to say it in. It turns out that grad school is really busy.

The most exciting part of my life right now is the de-shed thingy we got for our cats this evening. It's a hair thinner and I think that it might be made out of magic and rainbows. Feanor *hates* being brushed and usually puts up a fight when we try so we cornered him in the kitchen and although he wasn't pleased he didn't hiss or try and run away from us.

In other news, if X happens and Y is a sure bet for Boybee and I acheive goal Z, then we may be stepping up our plans for Opperation Q to deploy at the end of this summer.... Eeeek! :)

It really is lovely

After class tonight Boybee ran to blockbuster and grabbed Michael Clayton. We missed it in theaters mainly because it didn't look that interesting - the magic of the Oscars showed us the error of our ways so of course we needed to watch it (he also renter Elizabeth: The Golden Age). It starts weird and artsy, then it hooks you in and becomes a pretty compelling drama. The best part is Tilda Swinton - I'm a big fan.

Now I am enjoying the beginning of Spring Break - I have a class tomorrow evening but work's cancelled and the class is a med school course so it means that there will be free indian food for dinner. Got to love how they bribe the med school kids, as if my 913$ a credit hour isn't good enough for them (ok, so I got a scholarship but still, it's the principle). We may go to a friend's lake house for a bit, but it's still up in the air. I also have this big project to take care of out in the middle of nowhere and a living will to write. At least this nowhere has wineries and Boybee is on hand to supply hugs while I cry my way through the written declaration of how I want to die, which is not in the least depressing to me, no sir.

Suboptimal Waffles: Stay in School

I just told Boybee that I was working on my paper, so obviously I should be updating my poor forgotten blog.

Recently I have been working the 9 to 5 in addition to school and to be honest, I really love the classes I am taking but I'm just not feeling the school thing. Oh well.  I've been taking refuge in geekery and have started a 7th Sea role-playing game with some friends. It allows me to be creative without actually be productive thus bipassing my over-active anti-productivity drive.

Now to go see why my kitchen smells like wet-cat mixed with burnt popcorn and a potato!
