It is good to be Queen
Oct. 19th, 2009 03:14 pmAh. It is good to be Queen. At least that's how I felt, briefly, just now. I know I'm not the Queen. Don't worry I haven't gone barking mad. Yet.
I just spent my whole monthly lunch budget in one go at Lime and Basil but dang, so worth it. I love Vietnamese Coffee. If I am feeling groggy and out of it, bam! back in the game after a Vietnamese Coffee. I expect the bulk of my good mood comes from that coffee. And skeeving off work. And sitting in this plush chair in the honors student lounge (shh! I know I'm not supposed to be here, but they don't!) in front of a fire place with a fire in it on a cool day. So flipping nice. I need to hang out here more often.
I should go to the archeology colloquia in a few minutes. Boy howdy do I not want to. Bleh. I may skeeve it off too, and just work on my CV and research statement instead. And I have test regrades to review. And a syllabus to revise. Why, its a miracle, but that colloquia is suddenly looking rather fun. Sigh. I am scared that if I do go to the talk I'll fall asleep in it, which would be faux pas city.
Should I vote? Its local election early voting time here. I guess I'll need to re-register and figure out if I can still vote early on campus? Erg. Not sure I care enough. Even the local liberal paper, the Indy was like "All the Hillsborough candidates are fine or the elections aren't contested..." so it really feels silly to bother. If I was a Chapel Hill or Carrboro resident I'd probably bother.
