Life is good

Got my midterm from last week back -- the one I thought I had bombed -- and found out that I got an A minus! Booyeah! I'm excited. It's always a nice surprise to do better than you had expected. Man, this is so cool. I spent most of the past couple days figuring out how, if I got a C on this midterm, I could hike my average up to a high B by the end of the class, but now I don't have to worry so much. Very exciting.

Also, I have nothing to do tonight, which is very exciting. No meetings, no tutoring, no social obligations -- it's very nice. I can just bum out around here, watch the West Wing, and generally be a slacker. Good times. Really, I'm such an exciting person.

Perhaps I'll work on my resume tonight. That's what I should do. Probably won't, though. I'm going to try to have a stress-free evening. No thoughts of life plans! No thoughts of paper presentation on Friday! Only happy, lazy thoughts!

Ooh, and dinner thoughts. Almost time to go. It's cheese lasagna night, which makes me very happy.

Slight confession: every time I fill out this little extra-info thing at the bottom of this journal-filler-outer thing, I feel like I should quickly change CDs or Winamp playlist files so that my dorky music taste will not be revealed. But I must be my true self! I enjoy Michael Jackson's Billie Jean! I sometimes get teary during Wind Beneath My Wings! James Taylor rocks my world!

Off to do another e-mail check before dinner. Later, all.
