Fast week
Wow. This week kinda zoomed by.
Sore throat = still here. It's much worse during the night (I woke up again from it hurting) and in the morning. That shores up the allergy diagnosis since it's likely that the irritation is caused by post-nasal drip. Yum! Still no headache (beyond a typical allergy throb) and no fever or body aches. So yeah, probably allergies. I'm going to make another NMT appointment with Dr. Adams for next week.
Which, it turns out, might not be so much of a vacation week after all. Many faculty members, GTAs, and lecturers failed to submit their course descriptions on time (looks at![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
mckitterick). So instead of compiling them today, I'll be spending time doing that next week as they filter in. My revised plan is to work half days Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, then take all of Thursday and Friday off. No matter what, I'm taking a full vacation day on Friday--course descriptions be damned--because I haz awsum planz, peepuls. Aw yeah. It's going to be a total day of indulgence. Mmmmmm.....
...wow, I got completely distracted there, no lie.
So, it's the last weekend for KCRF and I can't believe we're looking at a possible high of 80 on Saturday. We can (I suppose) agree to disagree on the causes of climate change. But anyone who is still saying it's not happening? Come on over here--within slapping distance, please.
Last night I had dinner with a faculty member couple (both of whom have turned in their course descriptions, thank you very much). M. is a wonderful cook and B. makes some really strong martinis, let me tell you--not frou-frou martinis, either. These were straight up gin and vermouth (with a couple bleu cheese-stuffed olives--mmmm). It's a good thing they didn't mind me staying to chat for two hours after we finished dinner, because that with the wine at dinner? Damn. Woo! M. cooked the vegetables on one of these and I think I need one now. I like vegetables okay, but this thing turned zucchini into something absolutely delightful. I wonder if Bay Leaf carries them.
