buffybuffy! meteors and a busy week
Nov. 19th, 2002 11:25 ami think i'm a buffy addict now. we're two-thirds of the way through the first season (one dvd, four episodes left to go), and i'm already planning on hunting dan down to ask if i can borrow the second season from him. i made jorn watch two episodes with me last night. i was thinking about buffy in the middle of the night. i am all about it.
and you know what, i haven't been reading fantasy novels lately. usually, i'm all reading fantasy novels, and that's my big distraction and escape from real life. buffy doesn't take nearly as long as a fantasy novel (unless i watch several episodes in a row), so i think i'm doing well.
got up at 5:30am with jorn to watch the meteor shower. it was pretty cool. we stood outside in his neighborhood for like ten minutes and watched, saw a bunch of meteors, and didn't get mugged, so i think it was successful. only problem now is that i'm really tired--we went to bed after midnight, got up at 5:30, then went back to bed at 5:45, and woke up finally (at least i did) at 8:15 or so. so my sleep was all interrupted. and oddly, this is the second morning in a row that i've been awake and moving around at 5:30am.
today i get to teach workshop. there's three poems on the table today and all of them have good things going on in them, even the jesus one, so i'm not worried about having stuff to talk about.
next week, i'm so excited, i'm using up some of my saved hours from CASA, and i don't have any classes, so i'm driving to PA for thanksgiving with my family on MONDAY. that's several days before the actual holiday, and i won't be driving back to NC till sunday. i get almost a whole week's vacation! i'm so glad. time away from here, time with my family and my girlfriends. good good stuff.
this week:
wednesday: work at CASA 11:45-3:15. feminist theory 3:30-6:20 BUT i'm leaving early so i can help set up for Will Read For Food at 6pm. it starts at 7pm. (JORN--I forgot! do you think Leo could tape Enterprise for us??)
thursday: workshop 2-5. bar immediately afterward, then Garrett Hongo's reading at 8pm at the Ferguson Auditorium (wherever that is). possibly a party after that.
friday: work at CASA 10-2:30. dinner with Walt in Raleigh at 7pm probably. have to figure out where i'm going and where i'm meeting him.
saturday: work at blandwood 11-2.
sunday: work at blandwood 2-5.
