yesterday was the day from hell for some reason - ( the kind of day where I woke up late and couldn't even decide what to wear.  )

Today though, today was a good. day -- one of those good days that I expected yesterday. 

Made it awake this morning relatively on time, got breakfast and a bagel, met with students about their papers, took my kanji quiz, finished the reading for class and even squeaked in a surprise meeting with the coordinator from the Conference from Hell.   Had a fantastic time in class reading everything in super close form (and finding out our translations were strange things indeed compared to the Japanese), and had a lovely conversation with my advisor while giving her a ride home.  OH, and one of my friends in the program gave me flowers for my birthday!!  How cool is that?

Got home, loved my family, and am working on homework for next week so that I can be prepared.  Life is definitely looking up.  Best of all, I get to play all day tomorrow at making the Conference from Hell a fun event, then get to give my Tetsuo talk (again!).  Best of all, I'm getting nummy food tomorrow night... and possibly stopping by the Asian Studies party after.

:D
