Well, it's 2:19 in the a of m when I'm starting. In case you were curious, that is EXCEPTIONALLY later than I usually stay up. I went out with some friends from the department tonight and had a wonderful time. A wonderful time and some rum. Ok, a lot of rum.We went to see some ISU hockey. Cyclones lost, but it was still a good time. Then we went to WAS to have some drinks. Some drinks turned into 5 double Captain and Cokes in about 3.5-4 hours. Mix well, and you get a happy (and pretty drunk) Kristy that's up at 2 am.I adore my friends in the department. I really think that this semester would be unbearable without them. I spent the day (the entire 8-5 workday) in the library, all except 2 hours that I was teaching. And that was just today. Enough reading and writing will make anyone a bit loopy. I have had some serious doubts whether or not I will finish the thesis this semester. I have been stressed out to the max with family and school stuff. It was SO nice to let loose, and get plastered. (ok, not plastered, but definately as drunk as I have been in more than a year or so.) Normally, I am not one who indulges in drinking to relax, but after this week it was great. I ran into one student who said something like, "It's my fucking TA!" but other than that, the outing was student free. Without getting too sentimental, I will painfully miss the History Dept. guys next year if we end up moving. Them, and Dr. C, would be the best reasons to stay. I guess we shall see...Now that I've made it through 3-ish paragraphs, virtually mistake free...I won't press my luck anymore.Time to sleep off the rum. :-)
