There's a break from class coming up, but I'm going home for that weekend and will probably be thoroughly busy with various things while I'm away, including dealing with whatever homework gets assigned. Plus, I won't have my computer with me because it's too big and fat to fit in the bag I'm taking home. If you want to know, I had to get a new backpack just because of the size of this laptop.
Then, after this shortish break, there's a week of class I think is best referred to as 'limbo week', as the week right after it is Spring Break, so it's bordered by days off class. Unfortunately I have two tests during limbo week. And the weekend after class starts again, I'm going on a trip out of town to see some research presentations and also just to get out of this town for a bit, and I probably will be more focused on finishing homework than anything else that weekend. Besides that, I have at least one test every week except for the middle week of April, so I'll be juggling studying with regular homework and trying to relax so I don't tense up enough to explode.
Anyway, I'm going to do my best to finish this story, and today was very good progress. In addition, I wrote a few poems a week ago which I plan to include in the collection that I want to put out in a few months, and I've also written the dedication now. And it has a title, which is pretty impressive considering I'm normally terrible at picking titles. All I really have to do is finish this short story and then the one that ties three of them together--which I already have mostly mapped out plot-wise--and then it's onwards to editing.
Sorry for the long post. There's a lot going on and my mind is sort of everywhere.
Best of luck to you all.
Tschüs.
