Well, just got done editing (re-writing...?) Kris's dreadful research paper--dreadful because of the subject matter. Eulor and his theorems...just a bunch of sins and numbers pretending not to exist. Anyway. My sister called me at noon, inviting me to lunch with her and my "future sister-in-law". Amazing, isn't it? I think the world would stop turning if Kris and I didn't get married. Well, I met Jackie and Kristen for lunch, we talked about life insurance, wills, who gets whose kids, who's taking care of our dear old folks, sad stuff but we made it funny. You had to be there. I'm home now. On a Thursday. Mom and dad are in PA with grandma now, so it's just Cody and me. Boy was he happy when he saw me walk through the door! Jumping around and squealing...it was awesome, not gonna lie. It's always a fantastic feeling when your pet is exploding with joy to see you. I heated up pasta and, as I was taking it out of the microwave, mis-judged how hot it was and burnt my fingers, dropped the bowl, sauce went everywhere and splattered on my arms and burnt me, Cody came racing in to lick it up, I cursed at mom's broken pasta bowl. Sorry mommy. : ( Went to rehearsal at church...oy. I still have a lot of work to do on the powerpoint, but will perhaps simplify what's left because, honestly, I've got priorities. Anyways, it will all be hunky dorey. Got an e-mail from T; a really good one. More enthusiasm and praise for the play. Getting his emails always makes my day. He's booting a play that would require the stage and replacing it with one-acts, just so I can put my production on the stage. AND I get first dibs on the actors. You know, when I walked into this project I actually thought I would have to fight tooth and nail to get it done, and now T is almost bending backwards for me. I'm blown away by the support, not only from him, but the students as well. So now it's up to me finishing the editing process (joke--that never ends) and working out the finite details with T. EEEEEErrrrg...I'm sick of sitting at a desk! I can't wait to go hiking Saturday morning. I hope Cody can keep up. Speaking of which, he's already in bed because he's smarter than I am...bonsoir.
