Shhh... Don't Tell...

I'm sitting in my Geology lecture. Lemme tell you, I don't know if there is anything more boring than listening to someone lecture about how rocks are formed.

I swear that the whole point of getting a degree is just to prove that you can jump through the right hoops.

Things here are good. Hectic but good.

Sarah passed her nursing boards, so now she's Sarah R.N. I've been working part time in our Office of Diversity Programs and Services, with some really great people. The little bit of extra money is good so that I earn my keep.

My classes are interesting, to me anyhow. I'm doing a project on Vietnam War movies- Apocolypse Now, The Deer Hunter, and Platoon. That will be a depressing couple of weeks.

What else- oh, I'm also doing a project on Chaco Canyon. I hope to visit there with one of my professors this summer. Here is a neat movie on Chaco. Two of my professors are into Southwestern Archaeology, and they keep trying to tell me that that's where I need to work too. We'll see-- I've got a lot of life left to live, and there's a whole lotta history to look at.

Also-I've been co-teaching a sociology class this semester. At first I wasn't very into it, but am slowly watching as the students "get it", which is an interesting process. I'm afraid I might not be patient enough to teach for a living though.

That's about it here- I should probably pay attention while my professor explains erosion.

Next week? Latitude and Longitude. No, I'm not joking. Maybe Val can help me w/ my homework.

Love you all so so much. PS- a little birdie told me that Rachel has a birthday on Thursday- pop her an email or a card! (if you need the address email me bookgeek AT gmail dot com.
