On Missing School
Today has been a really weird day.
It's Columbus Day, and so school is out. In fact, my school was closed - I wasn't allowed to go up there to get work done. I stayed home. Everyone else went to work.
It felt a lot like when I was still looking for a job. Matt left, and I was the only one home. Granted, I did work on school all day long (got the next 2 weeks planned - now I just have to create everything I planned...). But still. It was rather surreal. I almost felt like I should be sitting on the couch reading a Lauren Willig novel instead of staying in Science-world all day.
This week will be a really weird week.
I have to show up for jury duty tomorrow. To say that I am not looking forward to it is a gross understatement. But Columbus Day + jury duty = 3-day work week for me. On Friday I'm going to think it is Wednesday, and I will be very confused when Saturday makes its appearance the next day.
Like I said. Weird.
