Thursday morning. It's snow flurries at the moment, which is very beautiful. I'm thoroughly enjoying the snow here so far, although in a couple of weeks I might feel differently. I got a ride in with Vicki this morning, which I also really enjoyed. She's going away for two weeks in February, from the 6th to the 22nd, which might be nice, although I'm helping to house-sit for a week in that time period already! Wish I could spread those things out... it'll be nice to have the space for so long, though. Maybe I'll do some more cooking, or maybe even have a party. Board games? Movie night? I could borrow SCM's projector and show a movie on the wall! Who knows.
Today I'm feeling very settled about taking fewer courses this term. I am definitely going to drop one and I may drop two. I want to make sure I have time to learn as much as I can from each class, and I also want to make sure I take time to take good care of my physical health. Especially now that I'm not biking as often, I think it's going to be important that I make time for the gym on a frequent basis. I'm still going to go to both of the classes today in case I hate one of them, but I am not going to take all seven this term.
I'm also feeling pretty fuzzy this morning. I didn't sleep much last night...Vicki was on the phone until the wee hours and then spent the hour between midnight and one messing around in the bathroom turning the water on and off, so I was awake for that, and then once things quieted down, I just couldn't sleep. Getting up at 6:30 felt like a relief from tossing and turning and an escape from very weird and sad dreams.
Anyway. I should try to get some stuff done before gym time...
