one thing lifting me up, one thing holding me down

This week continues to be less than totally auspicious: I missed my unmissable class today, because somehow I thought it was at 2, not 11. On the bright side, I got sleep?

I'm about to brave the rain to make a trip to uni, where I'll hand in my first work for Field Linguistics, and pick up my new glasses (thereafter dropping off the ones I'm wearing right now to get new lenses). So, yay, better vision, at least. And yesterday I stopped my bank and opened a web account that actually gets interest, in which to store most of my money, as well as ordering a Visa debit card on my existing account so I don't have to borrow others' credit cards any more. (Had to borrow Chas's last night to put credit on my phone and order some books.)

Things to do: study for my exam on Friday morning
- do a couple of linguistics assignments due by then (which also qualify as studying for the exam)

Which is why the following things are on a backburner right now:

- write posts about Half-Life 2, Dolly Parton, Barack Obama, free speech
- sort better/fold somewhat my clothes (not too problematic because they're in a box, at least, not just in a pile)
- go through and post recent photos
- arrange to talk to my mother and explain the whole thing where I've changed the name she and my father gave me

*takes deep breaths* Time to finish getting dressed, take my meds, and plan to head out as soon as the rain gets a little less heavy.
