Haven't posted in a while, thing are a little up and down, but averaging out to be better than the last few months:

Not so great things:
-procrastinated on paper
-didn't get picked for paper competition
-feeling a little stressed from lack of alone-time with mother in law in town
-had to go to two grocery stores today (I hate the grocery store too much sensory stimulation)
-had migraine earlier this evening
-haven't graded midterms and feeling stressed about it
-serious GI problems this evening that are making life unpleasant

Good things:
-pulled paper together at last minute
-presented in front of classmates and professors and not horribly embarrassed, participation points for me
-things with mother-in-law going relatively well, decent conversations, good food, she doesn't really move my stuff
-went to zoo with mother-in-law and saw super-cute pandas, including *cutest thing ever* baby panda asleep in a tree!!!
-went for a run today, planning for gym tomorrow but depends on GI situation
-makeThursdayssuckless lived up to its name again this week, and D. was able to come!
-my parents are in town this weekend
-it's my birthday tommorrow! (And we're going to Cirque du Soleil!)

also: silly quiz that proves brain still sorta functions
You paid attention during 100% of high school!

85-100% You must be an autodidact, because American high schools don't get scores that high! Good show, old chap!

Do you deserve your high school diploma?

oo, Cirque du Soleil. I'm envious.

And, I did remember telling you that your mother-in-law might like the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception (http://www.nationalshrine.com/site/pp.asp?c=etITK6OTG&b=106948) -- they do give tours, and the mosaics are amazing.

Happy birthday! Cirque du Soleil sounds awesome.

I got 97% on the high school quiz. I wonder what I missed (am too lazy to go back and recalculate my score with all the combinations of different answers)

Oh, I figured it out. It was the immaculate conception question that tripped me up - I was having pronoun interpretation issues, or something.

I got 91%. I got the same question wrong - for the same pronoun interpretation issues - and one more, too embarrassing to state here.

You... find grocery stores too intense/extreme?
