Today is another Monday, and with it brings the end of June. For not doing a whole heck of a lot at work, the summer still seems terribly ephemeral. I've been mulling the events of the last week, and am trying to be as proactive as possible. I have an appointment with the Dean of Students tomorrow regarding my status at the school (her letter came with my transcript) and I hope she can give me some helpful advice. I trust her, as I have also had her as a professor. I'm not nearly as sad/mad/dejected as I was, time has helped put things into focus. So instead I leave you with some random thoughts. 1. I really enjoy the World Rally Championship. Something about tooling around at high speeds on really awful roads with a co-driver yelling what's coming up next seems really cool. 2. My house is a wreck and my in-laws are coming in two weeks (more or less). 3. I'm reading 4 books at once: The Silver Chair by C.S. Lewis, The Carnivorous Carnival by Lemony Snicket, Krakatoa by Simon Winchester, and Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. Why? Because unlike work, by doing this much reading on my own I feel like I'm accomplishing something. And, I like to read. 4. I'm not afraid of thunder and lightning. This is really good since I was woken up by said meterological event this morning at 4:45am. I am however afraid of needles, suspension bridges, and automatic car washes.
