A Quick Note

Hi.

Life has been crazy. Christmas is one week from today and thanks to the wonders of the internet, I am now just about finished with my shopping. It won't be a very expansive sort of gift-giving season. Which makes sense because as much as I love giving people things, I refuse to add greatly to my debt load in order to do so. And the extra cash available for--let's face it, often completely unnecessary--gifts is minimal. So many people will have to be okay with the knowledge that I love them. And perhaps some cookies and other treats.

I very nearly lost my mind over the course of the last couple of weeks as I attempted to complete papers for my three grad school classes. I was feeling a definite lack of focus which I suspect is quite apparent in the first two papers (I managed to buck up and write something decent for the last one).
This is what life looked like, at least in the beginning...later it turned into utter insanity with books being propped open with assorted fruit and printed articles strewn about the desk, plus thirty PDFs, a few Word documents, and a game of Mahjong Titans (ever played that game? I was obsessed while writing) all open on my laptop.

But it's done now. I'll find out in another week if I completely bombed. But at least I don't have to stress about this stuff now.
Until next month. When I have to deal with writing my thesis.

That's about all I have time for this morning. Now I should get ready for work.
Here are some enjoyable tunes to get you through the day.



Accordian solo, anyone?

An odd song (as one might expect from Bjork) and an even stranger video...and I can't help but love it.
