Just for this moment, as long as you're mine…
All right. So I’m very stressed and about ready to throttle a couple of NAC professors. Specifically, the ones who are leading this Mono Lake trip thing.
suffice it to say that I am sick of the lack o’ planning and meaningful preparation for this course. And it ain’t just the food. It’s the wasting of 6 hours of my life in various meetings where they aren’t prepared, the useless emails saying “oooh don’t send any more questions ’cause we’re too busy!” … two days before the trip … and the total lack of any food prep until today. The day before we leave.
UGH.
Oh well, once we get there it should be fun. And I kick arse at prepping! My meal night is tomorrow, and I’ve already made my dish! Salmon and rice mixed into sort of a casserole-type dish! And all I will have to do is heat it up. Mmmm I feel good about that. And I only have to cook for half — aka the meat-eaters!
And the old apartment is mostly clean.
It’s just… I have a week at Mono, then 3 days in Davis, then 6 days in the DC area, classes starting while I’m in DC, a helluvalot of Collegiate 4-H and Computer Corps stuff to catch up on, and and and…
Well, I’ll continue taking it one day at a time. I’m told that we’ll get minimal cell reception up there, and that taking time to answer calls is seen as voluntarily leaving the community, so I will turn my phone on just once at night and see if I’ve gotten any text or voice messages. So yes, unless you hear from me, I’m alive. But I would like some nice little surprises when I turn my phone on at night. Please? 😀
Ok, off to bed. Morning will come waaaaay too soon.
