| Well, *finally*. |
[Apr. 16th, 2008|08:10 am] |
I now can finally use the Internet again, after some screwup on the part of my university that meant I had none for two days. Who knows what went wrong? First they said, "The connection's fine and it isn't our fault"; then they sent a flyer around to everyone saying essentially, "Actually it was our fault, whoops! Tee-hee."
Anyway. I finally got through the last round of the papers I was grading, though I am about to be snowed under by another (and then another, since it's so near finals week now). Someone at the library in my parents' hometown has changed their book-buying habits and now actually orders some new-ish SF and F books, which means I have books to read that I don't have to pay for, and which I was iffy about buying thanks to mixed reviews (Dust by Elizabeth Bear, in particular). I got all excited when I thought the new Steven Brust was coming out next week and then I realized it's not and I need to wait several months. There are just a few more weeks of school left, and though they'll be hectic, I then have almost four solid months off.
Yay. |
