well thus far my morning has been rather abrasive. i awoke at 7:30, anticipating a leisurely morning before biking to work when I realized it was supposed to rain all day. I vacillated between just walking to work (30-40 minutes), but since it was just drizzling I decided to just bike. of course after about 1 minute on the bike it steadily started to rain harder and harder, and my hoodie was already almost soaked through. i almost turned back and didn't go to work, but i suffered through and here i am. luckily on account of the hoodie my t-shirt is dry. the same can't be said for my sandals, head, and front of my pants, however.
now i just fucked up getting information for some kid in australia that called the department. apparently i didn't take down his email right, because i'm getting an error message. bleeehhhhhh.
meanwhile Professor Thomas is making me feel more and more confident about my Fulbright proposal. she really wants me to push the fact that I have invested time into Catalan, and that my knowledge of the language sociolinguistically and otherwise really should set me apart from other applicants. ara només cal de llegir més i més!
in other news, my replacement hookah base should arrive today - at least according to UPS tracking. i look forward to going home and sitting with my hookah while watching the rain fall outside my window. then once mel gets back its off to Joshua Tree (again) for beer and half-priced burgers! i'm still undecided between the stuffed bacon and bleu and the smokehouse stuffed with bacon and cheddar. decisions decisions. hopefully it stops raining when it is time for me to depart from the department.
tomorrow morning is my 7:50am flight home! yay!
