Coffee & Cigarettes

Back to work today and all is well. Nothing really new but it was nice to have a work day. I have this class I am taking and feel bad because we have a wireless connection at school. Sometimes I have my email open and some work while I listen to the lecture in the background. This woman next to me recently started bringing her computer to school too. She clicketly clacks away on her little iBook, and as I said elsewhere people have complained. Tonight the teacher walked by and saw the IKEA web site open on her computer. I do not want him to think I don't listen. And I got a 17/20 on my first paper. Ugh. Vak-Kay was nice, but now it's back to the grindstone. Karen wants me to finish my dissertation before she turns 50, so I said how old are you? She said 49. I am conflicted. Part of me loves living here and part of me doesn't. This life is not forever, and I need to balance between knowing life is short and knowing no decision is forever. In my mind these things can work together. So J&T got a house south of here near my work. Good for them, but damn that was fast. Probably seeing them this weekend. I hope.
