A Monday is Just a Monday

But this will be a week that IS a week, I'm sure!

This Friday Dr. LeMaster emailed me saying that CSULB doesn't offer ANTH551 so my transcript can't be changed from ANTH451 to ANTH551. I am confused, and have emailed Dr. Lipo about it. I'm sure it's just some sort of catalogue error or something silly that a few emails and a pound of paperwork can put right.

I spent the weekend eating (yes, I do know that I'm supposed to be on a diet), reading (O'Brien's Cat Monsters is SO interesting!), and working on Rebecca. I need a literary agent! But most of the ones around here seem to be screenplay-Hollywood style agents and that sort wouldn't be interested in a Young Adult Fiction manuscript!

It really was a remarkably uneventful weekend other than the fact I couldn't sleep at all last night and tossed and turned til at least 4:30 am. Mom suggests I try antihistamines and I think I'm going to have to...I just have to get into a routine of early to bed and early to rise, especially if I get that museum job. They're waiting on my background check and then they'll let me know their decision, so I'm thinking that's pretty hopeful. The worst thing on my record is a really awful speeding ticket, and I don't think that's a big deal in a museum employee, is it?

Last week was full of ups and downs; I won't really bother going into it other than saying Remote Sensing is HARD. Luckily, my classmates are really nice and help me a lot (which is encouraged by our prof, thank goodness) - and Mom's strict homework regimen of How To Do Your Math Homework helps a lot too...I caught a MAJOR error in half the class's work because of my math/science background. So that was super awesome.

Tonight I have some remote sensing homework, my thesis proposal, and some reading to do. Right now I'm roasting a chicken and when I go to turn it I'll put the rice on too; I have fresh vegetables from the farmers' market yesterday so I'll have a lovely dinner tonight.

This week is a bit of a mess; I need to organize an AGSA meeting, and I have to attend a CLASC meeting tomorrow and not one single person in the AGSA has told me how they feel about a referendum CLASC is going to vote on tomorrow, so I guess that leaves it up to my conscience.

Oh well, I have work to be doing. That's all for now, folks!
