Hiya Rose! What's up?
And how are you? How's the New Year treating you so far?
Not too badly at all. Well, once I figure out how to pay for textbooks, that is. And lose the Christmas pounds, of course.
This week is for reading and anime. I can write in between cracks in homework, but sitting and reading for hours is a luxury I should not enjoy once classes start...
I think I got good news today ... they're respinning the schedules, and I think I finally got a M-F slot! Yippee!
Yay! I'm glad to hear that!
My classes are mostly on Tuesdays and Thursdays, other than a Monday afternoon seminar, but they do start next week. I'm a little nervous, of course. Hopefully I'll do stupendously this semester. And find an advisor.
Here we are. I was wrong, it is further north, but much closer to SC than TN.

What's up with finding an advisor, girlfriend?
Woo Hoo! Is it at a reasonable time that will allow you to do more freepin?
Part of the problem is that they've blocked FR at the Lazy E ... <rolling eyes> but at least I'll have regular weekends, like normal folks!
And how are you?
It's my second semester as a grad student, so I have to find a permanent advisor. Hopefully by a couple weeks into classes I'll have a better idea, my classes are with people I think I might want to have as an advisor. I've just got to find one before, say, March...
I only have three classes and a seminar (13 credits, 9 is full time for a grad student) so it's not as tough as it sounds. And they're all in the department building.
If'n y'all ever wanted to move to the coast, I "know some people" in that field.

I'd like to go to bed, but I'm askeered to lay down...
Try turning down the heat... brr... wish I could afford a little but what they charge for gas!
Heat's off in our room. Most of the problem here is in my chest, not sinuses.
I gotta get me one of those...
Dang near thinking about a road trip...
Rub some Vicks on your upper lip, and on your throat.
My mamma would also take a big spoon, dip up some Vicks, sprinkle lots of sugar on it, and leave it on a saucer for me to lick overnight ... but, I guess you don't want to go there, huh??? <grin!>
Ah... jukebox reality...

Driftaway
Day after day I'm more confused
And yet I look for the light through the pourin' rain
You know that's a game that I hate to lose
And I'm feeling the strain
Ain't it a shame?
Gimme the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll, and driftaway
Beginning to think that I'm wasting time
I don't understand the things I do
The world outside seems so unkind
And I'm countin' on you
To carry me through
Gimme the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll, and driftaway
And when my mind is free
You know a melody can move me
And when I'm feeling blue
The guitars are coming through to soothe me
Thanks for the joy that you've given me
I want you to know I believe in your song
Your rhythm and rhyme and harmony
Help me along
Makin' me strong
Gimme the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll, and driftaway....
Thank you!
Have been having some fun on another thread regarding Air America.
