Life of a Creative Writing Grad Student [and knitter]

The occasional opining of a sleep-deprived grad student, with cheese.

presentations

yeah, they didn't happen today.

instead, the professor got around to me and told me to go next time.

that's fine, really. the only thing i was majorly concerned about was losing my voice before it was over, and my voice was really starting to go about halfway through class. i likely wouldn't have made it through ten minutes of talking anyway.

makes me wonder what my class will be like tomorrow.

i'm still sitting at a feverish 102.2, which is enough below 103 that i'm satisfied. and it's still godawful cold everywhere.

i think i'll be able to teach tomorrow, though. i'm going to print out lecture points and have volunteers write on the board. i'll clarify points mostly. i'm pretty sure they'll be good for me. last time, when i was coughing a lot and very quiet when i spoke, they were quiet to match. i'll just not have a quiz tomorrow, because the far reaches might not hear the questions.

ugh.

sadly, my soreness has gathered itself into only a small area, and now my lower back, hips, and pelvis is hurting me. but the rest of me, not counting the head, is feeling much better. stairs up are fine. stairs down hurt the right hip like hell earlier. makes no sense.

well, on to finish the lesson for tomorrow and sleep.

love and peace.
