Back to work

Sitting here in my office at school for the first time in over two weeks. Bah.

I spent the weekend alternating between cutting text from my prospectus, always cutting, cutting, and helping J. prepare for her California trip. My prospectus is now a mere thousand words over. J. left for the airport this morning before 6, poor dear. I will wallow in loneliness until the 15th. At least I have Christmas presents -- the Starcraft Battle Chest and Warcraft III -- to entertain me.

I've always wanted a Battle Chest.

It's more of a uninteresting cardboard box, however. We've decided to keep printer paper in it.

I shall also have to do more editing on my prospectus, of course. The advisor is reading through my latest draft even as I write these words. Eerie, isn't it?

And, of course, there's marvytoy's Necronomicon, which I should look through again before Saturday's LARP.

( I, too, had odd dreams )

Alas, for Nuts Past

NOOOOOO!

When J.'s mom mentioned she had bad news about the Nut Museum, I was worried that the proprietor had died. While it's not as bad as that, it's still pretty bad.

J. and I visited the Nut Museum in the summer (I think) of 2001. It was fantastical. It's sad that we will never be able to go again.
