1) I have events to attend both tonight and tomorrow night. This is good. The social calendar, she is not bare. I even sort of have costumes/outfits for both. This is even better.
2) I rocked my second midterm as well. I don't have the grade yet, and I could be sadly misguided in this, but I don't think so. And yes, I did write for very nearly two hours straight.
3) I have discovered that a scarf wrapped around my head looks nifty.
4) I went and worked out yesterday. I'm not working out today because I miscalculated and forgot this was costume day at work, and I am in no way equipped for gym excursions. Such is the way of things.
5) I am making progress on knitting. I only have 8 pieces of glass left to foil (then we have trimming and soldering this weekend, then sending off to my friend Nicole). I know what I'm going to knit after this, and even have the stuff to do it -- well, for the most part. Have to get more yarn for another project I have in mind (my first sweater!) but I have to get some stuff off the needles first. More knitting is obviously called for. More glass, too, but glass is more expensive (mostly) and requires dedicated time (mostly).
6) My paper doesn't require sources! God, I love English.
7) I have ideas for essays that have to do with literary theory that I want to work on for no better reason than I want to work on them. I know one that I want to do has sort of been covered -- I'm totally not the first to draw this conclusion -- but I might be able to put a new or broader spin on it. I have more research to do before I can say for sure. But I am planning to write it regardless, because I'm just that into it.
8) I'm thinking again. I'm not usually asked to think much in my daily life. I'm definitely not pushing myself as a general rule. I'm not pushing myself in my classes, either -- I suspect it would take grad school for that -- but I'm engaging and drawing correllaries and linking things to other things and coming up with conclusions... damn, it's been a long time. It feels really good. I think I have to take this into account moving forward.
9) When I weighed yesterday, I had lost a bit more... not much, but a little bit. Enough that I'm pleased that I haven't screwed up. :)
10) I'm reading Frankenstein. God, what a schmuck he is. This is fun.
