+ Got an e-mail back from the professor at Leicester I e-mailed yesterday! He seems nice.
- Misspelled his name. In my defense, the University of Leicester info packet did too. I will now be double- and triple- checking every e-mail I send out, since I have to write...several more of these.
+ Bought a pencil skirt at the NO Fleas Market, which is this resale store nearby where the proceeds to go various animal charities. I keep saying it's camel, but it's a slightly different shade. Very high-waisted, but knee-length.
- Did not actually accomplish much on my two days of actual vacation, whoops.
+ Finally started honors thesis reading!
- First chapter due in one month.
- Still don't have a third reader.
+ Spent evening out with friends at Chicago's house, which is cute and gorgeous and which I would like to move into right now please. HARDWOOD FLOORS.
+ My interlibrary loan book came in!
- I checked my e-mail at 4:54 yesterday and the ILL office closes at 5:00 and doesn't reopen till Monday. Don't worry, I wouldn't have had time to read it anyway.
- Could not find sweet Italian sausage at Whole Foods. Well, maybe I'll just make another vegetarian soup or something.
+ My mother sent me a functional perfect teapot. GIVE ME TEA OR GIVE ME DEATH.
- Need to buy batteries, since my mouse has started flashing red instead of green. That must be a bad sign.
+ Gorgeous weather, if you consider 80 F in the middle of October to be gorgeous. (It is lovely! Except when you want an excuse to wear a corduroy skirt, wine-red tights, a sweater, and ankle boots.)
+ The other day I wrote 200 words of Dust. I think all 200 of them were about clothes.
+ Am very glad that I am not, to the best of my knowledge, involved in the current Narnia wtfuckery, because I am pretty sure I would not handle that well.
Completely unrelated: The barter system is alive and well; tomorrow my mother is trading sushi lessons for wild-caught Alaskan sockeye salmon. WILD-CAUGHT ALASKAN SOCKEYE SALMON. *drools*
