Cry freedom

The paper is done. The New Testament homework is done. And I don't have to do any more Church History papers or New Testament homework ever again. Huzzah!

My big challenge at this point is reminding myself that I have exams in two weeks and a lot of reading to do, and that I can't slack off. I've been so focused on finishing assignments all semester that having no more assignments has tripped some sort of switch in my brain that's decided that the semester must be over. Sadly, not so. Although on the plus side, even if I failed both exams at this point, I would probably still pass both classes. But I don't want to fail the courses, so I shall study.

But first I will go to Champaign this weekend and do badly needed work on our Acen sketch, since Acen is approaching at a perilously rapid pace. Tomorrow, I will at least finish cutting out the fabric for my costume, and hopefully I'll find some time this weekend to do some sewing.

We watched Master and Commander tonight. It was well-done and highly enjoyable. I wish that we had been able to see it in the theatre, although I suspect I don't miss seeing those surgery scenes writ large on the big screen. We were amused to see that Billy Boyd had a small part. If I were a ship captain, I definitely wouldn't want Pippin on my crew, even as a mascot. He would end up upside down, tied up in the rigging by the end of the first day. :)

I have to work tomorrow, so I should go to bed now, to cough and blow my nose.

Cough, sniffle, hack, wheeze.

I hate being sick.
