Yeah, 15 INCHES.  I’m not sure I’ve ever seen 15 inches of snow.  I’m terrified and my warm boots slip on everything.  I almost did the splits today trying to get to the library, ow.

So, what all haven’t I posted?  It’s been so long.  Spring Break.

I spent a lot of time home alone watching tv and trying to get ahead on my readings for all of the various projects I have coming up.  I did okay, I could have accomplished more, but that’s always the case, and I’m trying not to feel bad about it.  I went to the Celestial Seasonings Tea Factory over the break, that was fun.  I stood in the mint storage room and it was insane. It was like bathing in menthol/mint smell. It was incredible, and while it kind of hurt it was also really exhilarating.  My lungs have never had such an experience.   I’m not sure how to describe it…

I had an interview Monday for a part time student aide position at CSU today. I’m pretty sure I’m going to get it, the lady who interviewed me said as much, she just needed to check on my references first. I’m hopeful. It would only be 10 hours a week, but I’m last person to scoff at any job these days. It is in the building next door to matt’s so that might be fun too.  I think I’d be a glorified errand and phone-answering girl, but I’m still excited.

We’re reading Heaven’s Coast right now for one of my classes and it is heart wrenching.  I really think it’s incredible, Doty writes like a poet, but without the floridness that usually drives me nuts.  The story is beautiful and astoundingly detailed from my limited experience with grief.  Other than that I’m rereading the Robber Bride for a paper, and numerous articles to discuss Buffy in the terms of somatic criticism, and that’s my term.

I wish I had more to report but the term is busy here and hence my life has become quite dull.
