Feeling a bit whomped with work and school of late. I'll get what I can get done done, and try to do enough sanity maintenance in there too. Going to Ottawa Friday night can't come soon enough. Travel Scrabble, talk and "reasonably priced snacks" on the train are calling to me.

I've been putting in some time helping out with a paper on shape grammars as design tools, marking, and not doing quite enough problem sets. Tonight, babysitting a roast in the oven (some people I know do turkeys, I have beef from home to keep me up all night), and alternating procrastinating with stuff I need to be doing.

The weekend involved a bunch of communal time with [livejournal.com profile] rottenfruit: Saturday Dim Sum with her and my folks, gaming with her and the usual suspects, and on Sunday we went to monthly Scrabble as thrown by [livejournal.com profile] feygele (in nifty rainbow kippah) and [livejournal.com profile] vierge_en_trop (who made said nifty rainbow kippah). Saw the kippah in question through a basement window today at Concordia, debated pressing my nose up against the glass and gesturing "hi", but I was late and the head under it looked to be concentrating on something deep. I had fun, and got some stuff done — not as much as I should have, but there was progress. Today was long, and isn't over.

I think I'm slowly growing up.

All that matters is that you put bacon on it, LOTS of bacon!

I think I'm slowly growing up...

You can fly! You can fly!

Might I have some fairy dust? I think my supply is running low :)

Are you growing up in good ways or in bad ways...?

I'm sitting in the same basement, by the same window, at the same table, in the same chair, as I read my friends list. My reaction was to look out the window for you ;)

(This is the Religion dept's hang out/study/party/nap/etc room.)

Oh and ITYM "silly assignment for Religion and Sexuality" HTH.

Today?! Ack! I was finishing off a paper around that time... Then starting Hebrew assignments while singing to silly Hebrew pop songs.

Um, next time knock?
