anita- i third the motion on the academic madness. too much reading. thankfully, i've had a two day break for rosh hashanah (one of the pluses about going to a [secular] jewish university is all the holidays we get off. trying to catch up, but all i want to do is exercise and cook, both activities i've had to unfortunately ignore of late.
mauvaisroux, i'm a tad bit jealous, my life consists of two places: campus and home. (NIN?!)
jan - i can relate. i'm questioning my calling as i go tens of thousands of more dollars in debt to earn an MA. i've paired it down, but have been steadily questioning for the past 5 years. just remember, you da man,
jan.
it's been wet, cold and overcast here for a week now. on the plus side i started cooking all the things i love about fall. had cream of wheat for breakfast instead of cereal, made some lentil chili a couple of days ago, and aloo gobi last night for dinner which was very autumny. just got a huge squash at the sto' and made some vegan hot cocoa last night. i love all the food and drinks that are associated with this season!
We are cups, constantly and quietly being filled.
