from my office

I'm writing this from an office space I share with five other TAs. Two of them are here right now, being much more productive than I. But that's okay. I have done an alarming amount of homework this week, and I still have so much to do this semester. Scary, really, how much I have to do. I gues that's the price of not having to go to work every day.

Steve has been in Minnesota or Utah for almost a week now. I begin to forget what he looks like! But he will be home tomorrow and that makes me so happy. It will actually be a little weird having another person in the house. I have gotten used to talking to myself and Frank, the mouse that lives in our kitchen.

Last weekend I got to go to the Jackson Arts Festival, where I passed out wine, sold posters, and played Vanna White by showing artwork at an auction. It was so much fun to hobnob with some professional artists. They were interesting, and their artwork was fantastic. They only had 90 minutes to draw/paint/sculpt the works they auctioned off. So cool! I hope to do it again next year too.
