I swear I know better than to have nothing but coffee for breakfast when my lunch won't be until 4:30ish, despite the fact that I did it anyway. If being stuck in a room with nothing edible but vending-machine candy within 15 minutes' walk and the only denomination of money on one's person being a $10 bill isn't a level of hell, it should be. The vending machines don't take anything but $1 bills. I was probably better off that way, though, because it meant I had to come home and eat real food instead of having vending-machine candy for whatever meal that was.
The guy I had to deal with last Wednesday didn't show up today. I spent today explaining the difference between the past imperfect and the passé composé to three or four different people, most of whom wanted to know when I would be back so they could come ask me again.
I either need to start bringing my enormous dictionary with me so I can work on my case study while I'm not tutoring, or I need to find a way to borrow one. If the French prof whose office is across the hall from the tutoring room had been in today, I would've asked him. What I need right now is somebody who can tell me whether it's "globus pallidus" or "globus pallidum", since I've come across both in the same article referring to the same thing. (I hate that.) I think I'll flip a coin and correct it later if I have to.
It got cold after it got done raining. Oh well, at least if it's going to snow again it'll have to start over from bare ground.
I have to remember to go to the coffee hour tomorrow. I sort of wish I didn't have to, but there wouldn't be any coffee if I didn't. Apparently because Mardi Gras was yesterday, there will be crepes tomorrow.
