Made it through Wednesday and onto Thursday mostly unscathed but with an unhealthy desire to do graphics instead of read for classes. Snaked my way through Thursday by the skin of my teeth and some reasonable attention to reading despite the delinquent tendencies. I've been feeling like I'm playing hookie tonight because we don't have homework in Japanese to prep for tomorrow, but we'll be finding out our tests scores from Monday's test, so we'll see if I hang onto that yummy goofy feeling.

My father called me tonight to let me know he's having an angiogram (sp?) on Tuesday because he failed his stress test, has high cholestrol, and they found that he'd probably had one heart attack (that he never felt) some time in the past. Tuesday will determine if he has to have angioplasty or a shunt or the like, and he's in an absolutely rotten yet kind of giddy mood because after almost 50 years of smoking (he started when he was 15) he is quitting cold - fucking - turkey. Poor pappa. I'm not worried, this is fairly routine kind of stuff (unfortunately) but ... it's no fun to have parents go from those gods who know everything will live forever into ... people. I'll make it out for christmas this year come hell or high water.

Made a good dinner tonight! With more than one vegitable! Finally! We really need to get on the whole healthy eating kick, but haven't yet (last night was mac & cheese and a kit cat that my beloved picked up for me). However, at least we have a new veggie to add to the very short list that we both like and will eat - it's this cross between brocolli and asparagus (but without that acrid asparagus taste). Green! We had green things! Huzzah!

I have discovered my favorite author of all time is going to write another book!! She has a website (because that's an requirement for every writer these days, isn't it?), and this is what I snatched off of it:
( this may not make much sense to most, but it makes me absolutely giddy )
