Finally

• Hi again, Internets.
• It's been a while. I've been uninspired/too busy/not busy enough, apparently.
• But I just got done with my last class of the semester, of my last semester of classes.
• And this morning I turned in my paper for the seminar that had the conference. This was not the paper I presented at the conference; this was an additional short project proposal. Mine was 10 pages long.
• I went to school to print it off and turn it in, and then I went to Grandma's with friends for lunch to celebrate.
• I had forgotten that I had class at 6:00, and hadn't come to school prepared with work to fill the time, so I went home. Where I managed not to work. Although I did bake cookies for class.
• I have one more short paper to write and my students' finals to grade.
• I'm also still trying to write that review of a friend's show.
• Last night a couple of friends and I saw The Bank Job. I like heist movies, and this one was okay. I think we ended up giving it a collective 7.5.
• The last time I'd been at the Riverview with Ed was when the bridge fell down.
• The last movie I'd seen in a theater was Atonement (and was disappointed).
• I had a facial a week ago Tuesday.
• The aesthetician told me I needed to include more fat in my diet, so I've been taking flax seed oil. And truffles, when the opportunity presents itself (like at lunch today).
• We're going for pedicures on Thursday morning.
• I haven't had a professional one in a year. When I ran the marathon in October, I lost several toenails, and they've all finally grown in enough that I can show my feet to a professional.
• One week from tomorrow, I fly to Seattle. And then to Hawaii.
• My brother-in-law will be working at Pearl Harbor, and my sister and I are going for a couple of weeks (they scored a sweet companion fare flight for me).
• I told her I'll have to be reading for my exams while we're lying on the beach; I think she may ply me with frosty drinks and see how long I last.
• After this semester, that sounds pretty good to me.
