The Joys of Being Sober late at Night

Bunch of guys using a shopping cart as a chariot. Drunk and actually peeing from their lofty stance as they went. Eventually they slammed in to the curb and one guy went flying. I'm reasonably sure he injured his wrist given its immobility and the angle he held it at. Had he and his buddies not run off because of campo's arrival I would have offered to try to help the wrist. It will need to be straightened and restrained if it was actually injured. I reckon he was too drunk to know.

So not a ton to report but a few quick tidbits.

After going through a very long phonecall and being forwarded all over the place, like three or four different departments, and waiting about 48 hours, I finally managed to drop my history class and add a biology class (population ecology). It will make Thursdays, and tomorrow especially, kind of nasty. I'm certainly not as up on the work as I wish I was. We're pretty much just supposed to work on our papers and read our textbooks cover to cover.

Prof Perkins (Marine Conservation) has offered to meet with Zora and I to go over our Diatom data and to help us publish it (maybe). Its certainly a nice offer. If nothing else some new eyes will be nice.

Otherwise things have settled in to a bit of a rhythm. Getting more adjusted overall. In the midst of work time Zora and I make dinner at her flat and hang with her roomates. Eventually we go back to our own rooms to do work. At least this week Zora has been coming to spend the night at my place. I've really appreciated getting to have that time with her, and that she would go out for the short walk to my place in the cold night weather. Despite all the new, strange and stressful stuff to adjust to its a bit of home I guess.

Well, that is all for now. Hope to get a buzz from some of you soon.

And Kevin, kudos on the show. I wish we could have listened to it. The titles looked good at least. Knowing your standards I'm sure it was some solid stuff.
