ho-hum.
Not much happening, except most everything I own is now in a box (or soon to be in a box). I have a ton of crap. Of course I already knew this, but it's always nice to have it reaffirmed by constantly tripping over said boxes. Oh well ( Read more... ) -
FYI-degrees posted.
Just checked MyUW and my degree is showing up as conferred or whatever. I'm going to head down and grab some transcripts...I think they're still free (fingers crossed). -
yea for Bloomsday
Happy Bloomsday everyone! Finally, an excuse to cram myself into the old corset and knock back a few pints at the local pub.
Not that this has anything to do with James Joyce or alcohol induced ramblings (maybe), but I've posted a few entries onto my other little blog, A Reader's Year. Yes, the title kind of sucks and I'm still figuring out ( Read more... ) -

Had a perfectly lovely evening last night, eating out at Tutto Pasta with limb_of_satan and k_bel before they depart for places elsewhere (BTW, thanks simpledarkangel for the LJ help--see I can do it now ( Read more... ) -

I haven't received any directly addressed mail, the birthday present my friend said she had sent hasn't arrived and, more troubling, neither has the new license that my mom had sent. I had filled out a change of change of address form, ( Read more... ) -
have I stopped moving yet?
So I probably shouldn't wish for stuff to do, as then I get socked with stuff ( Read more... ) -
And The Word is...
The commencement speech I always prayed I would hear:

Well, it's a Saturday morning, I wasn't able to sleep past 8 and my radiators are scalding hot. Not quite sure why, but whatever.
I went to see the DaVinci Code last night with limb_of_satan and simpledarkangel. I think we all agreed that it was rather longer than it needed to be. I think there was one point at which I laughed out loud, but ( Read more... ) -

I have to convince myself that in 36 hours time, my final extended break of my school life will be over. It will be another 38 years before I have as long a break without any sort of work obligations. sigh.
I went to a concert by the Madison Symphony Orchestra this afternoon, ending up row K of the balcony, or approximately 3 rows higher than ( Read more... )
