So, here I am on a Sunday afternoon. Life is good, despite the following thngs.
1. There is so much work to do. As always, there is so much work to do.
2. Mom is flipping out because my family isn't a priority, despite the fact that I spent an hour and a half on the phone with my parents last night. Clearly, that doesn't count for anything.
3. I am sleepy, and therefore 1 looks really unlikely to change.

But, as I said, life is pretty good. Had a waffle this morning for breakfast, went to Casino night last night. Had fun "salsa dancing" with Dan. Finally got a washer despite the fact that it is Sunday, so I will have real, clean clothes to wear tomorrow. Hurray.
I've been wondering about Thanksgiving break. I think it might be wierd to go back home. It is going to be a complete and total change from living here. This is home now, really, and there is a very comfortable routine here. It is also going to be crazy busy with all the commitments I have made, the things I want to do, and then the people I want/need to see. And then there is my family. I know that at least I will be spending Thursay and probably much of Saturday with them, so they are built into the schedule. I'm sure Mom will want to spend more time with me than that, though. It will be negotiated. I really do want to see eveyone again-- that should be very nice. I can't wait to see Ian and Eric and Andy... Hurray!
I really need to get to work, if anything I want to get done today is going to get done today. Sigh.
