No, don’t ask where I got that little gem… just don’t.
After my last post, I’ve found that I am just too attached to this thing to delete it. Following some suggestions I’ve tried to sanitize it of my identity so I can happily continue to blog about my sometimes ridiculous existence. Wednesday, for instance. The day of my midterm. I actually got up, and out of the house much earlier then usual. All seemed well. WRONG! Got halfway to school when the coolant light in the Saturn started blinking and the temperature spiked. Pulled in the gas station and the car was hemorrhaging coolant. Um, I don’t think topping it off is going to work, HELP!!! Poor Dan, he drove out to rescue me. He turned the car on with the hood up and a stream of fluid shot out of the engine compartment in a perfect parabolic arc. Not good. I ended up going on to school with the Jeep as he attempted to get the Saturn home, stopping ever so often to refill the tank with water. Of course the consequence of this little jaunt was that he got really behind at work and had to stay past Midnight. My hero.
The last week had totally gone by in a blur. Amazingly I’ve gotten quite a lot done. I got the first draft of my introduction chapter written. I’m nearly finished with my applications for about 12 different teaching positions. Work continues on the revisions of my paper to be submitted to the journal in a few weeks. Gave my midterm exam and got them all corrected. All and all not bad, considering. Well, I’m off to buy a ream of resume paper (now isn’t that just scintillating news).
