I get to hang out with Laura tomorrow, which pleases me greatly. I did all my schoolwork tonight so I wouldn't have to worry about it tomorrow.

I'm getting frustrated with school but not because of school itself so much as myself. I have a paper due at the end of October. I desperately want to do it but everytime it comes time to "want" to go over to research for it, I get this sudden pull to do anything else besides that. Now, that wouldn't be so bad if this was spring semester like my papers for last semester and I had spring break in which to do work for them. Alas, it's fall and October will be here before I know it. Argh. Oh, and what makes matters really exciting is the topic I've chosen for my first paper has quite a few books on it ... HOWEVER they don't seem to be available at the library. Misplaced? Yes, because they aren't checked out like they should be if they aren't on the shelf.

I was looking at the one book I was taking notes from and I noticed how it had the same card envelope thing (for signing it out) as it had in the 60s when it was published. Wow, 40 years of education and it's still useful. Talk about a good profession to get into ... your works last forever.

Anyway, yeah, not on the shelf ... I don't know. I'm supposed to use primary documents too so I'll probably go find some of those. Just a short trip to Germany to find the original documents locked away. I break in, steal them, flee the country and seek asylum back in the US. Sounds like a good plan to me. All a ficticious story btw ... except me needing those primary documents. I can find them online conveniently translated for me so I don't have to call Chris M. or Tiff to translate the German.

I have this feeling of disappointment ... for lack of a better description. I don't know what it is. I just feel like I'm not fulfilling something that I should be and I don't know what I'm even talking about. :: sighs ::

So I'm watching grass grow, or so I've told Kevin since he told me he was watching Animal Planet and I felt I needed to compete with that. :: shakes head ::

I don't know what this feeling is but it needs to go away. Someone hold me :: looks around :: oh wait, I'm alone. Well someone hold me tomorrow then ... yeah. :-\ :: blinks :: it's face time. :-) :-( :-\ :-D :oD :0P OK, that was fun.

I'm all done. Cya
