Weekend Update

I know it's already Wednesday and I'm just now getting around to talking about my weekend. So I'm having time management issues. I'm in grad school...it's normal.

Thursday night I went to class and really enjoyed lecture. The examples given for the theory seemed to make sense to me. Now we'll see how well it makes sense when I do the homework. After class I met with friends to celebrate Never's birthday. It was a great chance for me to drink a beer and unwind. Talked mostly with Griff of Ultramicroscopic, who by the way, is up for a SXSW People's Voice Award. You can vote here if the mood strikes you.

When I got home Thursday night, naturally, I called Kevin. Typically we talk for an hour or two before sleeping (depending on how tired I am and how late it is). Normally if we talk too late, I'll fall asleep on the phone. But for some reason Thursday night, I got past the point of exhaustion and we stayed up until 4am talking. The conversation was fabulous and totally worth it.

Friday was quiet at work, thank goodness. After work I hit the sack plenty early.

Saturday consisted of class and a quiz that showed me how much studying I need to do. Spent hours studying with a classmate before heading home to veg. I finally installed Grand Theft Auto and played to my hearts content. Saturday night I went to Anna Beth's house and hung out with some very fabulous women. It was really, really good for me to get out of the house and see friends.

Sunday was spent mostly with my parents. The whole family had lunch and I had a really great conversation with my grandmother afterwards. Then Mom, Dad, and I went shopping for bathroom ideas. We were far more impressed with The Great Indoors than we were with Home Depot Expo (which seems to be just for the insanely rich, which we're not). I'm excited about the ideas we have and am looking forward to getting estimates soon! Sunday was a beautiful day outside and I always have fun to hang out with my parents. I finished up with more studying that night.

This week has already been full. Monday night I stayed up until midnight studying. Last night I met with my study group (got a lot of productive work done) but didn't get home until 10:30pm. I hope my dog doesn't hate me for being gone and only sitting in the study. Today I've started worrying about midterms which are in two weeks. I started formulating a study plan this morning on the way to work so I'll be prepared for my tests. Tonight I'll implement the plan and finish up some homework that's due Saturday. Thursday night I have class and Friday night Kevin arrives. I'm glad to be so busy, because it makes Friday arrive faster.
