One brief respite

Well, I finally finished the area essay statement and reading list for my thesis, plus I just finished marking the essay rewrites for the class I'm TA for, so for now, I'm on top of things. October was a busy month, but November looks like it will be too.

Look, I even took to sleeping with my books on my bed. This is because I'm running out of shelf space. I'd leave them in my shared office (my officemates are trustworthy sorts, they passed my test by not eating the doughnut holes I left in the fridge), but these are library books and I'd be completely liable if they got lost. Plus the girl I'm sharing a desk with already has one of the drawers filled with her books, whereas my half is filled with printer paper, assorted office stuff (markers, pens, a stapler, etc.), a toothbrush and toothpaste, and the Here Comes Snoopy book I bought for a dollar.

So, that's what's new with me. Oh yes, my place has new crap in it, it's had them since September but I'm only now posting pictures. Apparently my phone doesn't take good pics in incandescent lighting, but I'm not going to retake any of these shots. There's some other pics of miscellaneous stuff in there too. One of these days I'll think to take pics when I'm not at home, or at least do it more often.
