I've been busy

So I had a meeting with Kate today, wherein I basically spewed every thought I've had pertaining to medieval literature over the past two months to her. Upshot - I need to figure out why Malory was being pissy at the Scots, or rather what was going on in Anglo-Scot relations when Malory was writing, and I also need to stop busying myself with the lit I'm really in love with and start reading some churchy stuff. So prepare yourselves, my beloved if almost nonexistant audience, for an onslaught of everything you could ever hope (or not) to read/know about the ways and means of the Medieval Catholic Church (and its dissidents)...

My newfound need to memorize Piers Plowman aside, the meeting went pretty well. And the meeting I had with David on Monday?
It was postponed until today.
Make that tomorrow at 5.

Hopefully it'll get done then, because I have basketball to watch, dammit, and my birdies play Friday night at 6. It would take a hurricane to keep me away from the bar then. Tornadoes wouldn't really phase me, and I can deal with snow...

Other than that, life continues. I feel horribly cut off from my friends and like I'm scrambling to figure out if anyone here still really is friends with me (I know that I still have friends here and such, but after the blow out with one particular person I think I'm being a bit more paranoid than normal), and I miss my KS friends because half of them don't live there anymore and I spent so much time over break sick that I never even made it to Lawrence. And I MUST be sick not to get to Lawrence, because I have too many happy memories there and miss Jen a ton... I did finally get over my Spring Break cold though, as evidenced by the near-psychotic level of writing I managed today (see my other four posts for the day...) - I love when the ADD hyper-focus kicks in.

At this point, I'm tired, I've had two beers, three shots of espresso, half a piece of coffee cake and three potato skins. I should probably eat something with substance (or at least vegetables), and come up with a way to help soothe my muscles from the late night jazz/ballet punishment they underwent last night.

And finally, I adore Philip Glass. We were dancing to some of his work last night in jazz, and it was totally awesome and wonderful.
