Jan. 13th, 2016 03:28 pmThis week can largely be described by the syllable (not sure it really qualifies as an adjective) "BLAH". The Calvin-waiting-for-propeller-beanie-by-mail feeling has worn off, partly because I don't understand why my Kindle hasn't shipped yet. I ordered it last Saturday and they said it would be here on Friday, and it hasn't shipped yet. Unless the shipping depot two days from here was out of Kindles and they were waiting for more, I can't understand why it would take so long.
I've also gotten up to my ears in the oral surgery course that starts in two weeks. Due to a combination of unfortunate circumstances, I've ended up doing the oral surgery department admin's job even though I'm absolutely not supposed to (my boss says so). The admin is here, but refuses to do anything for the course. Better I do it than nobody does, though, and if nobody did, there would be major disasters and the students would be complaining even more than they are already (oral surgery has been a major source of complaints for several years now). BLAH.
Yesterday I talked myself out of going to a very expensive dinner, because it wasn't Wednesday. I really really wanted to pamper myself, but I went home instead and had almonds and string cheese and hardboiled eggs. And half a handful of raisins, because the idea of red meat was making me drool all over myself in a highly undignified fashion. I wasn't sure if it was a lack of protein issue or a lack of iron issue, so I covered both bases. Today, however, is Wednesday, and it's the last Wednesday night I'm going to have free until April, and I kept going past Deuxave on the M2 on the way to chorus rehearsal and wishing I were going there instead. So I think maybe I'll go there tonight. They have venison on their menu at the moment and I haven't had venison in ages. Speaking of drooling all over myself in a highly undignified fashion...
