Warm.

Well, the first week of the semester is almost over. Sadly, I am already confused with Calculus. *shaking of head* I'm ready for the ride, folks. My classes all seem challenging, but I think if I really apply myself (as I am doing right now by doing this out of homework-avoidance) that I will do well.
Our furnace stopped working today after weeks of difficulty. But, now it's fixed and it's warm again!!! It's such a relief. I might need celebratory hot chocolatey-ness tonight. *excitement* I'll have a warm weekend of homework ahead of me. I don't really mind doing homework. Only when I don't understand it do I get frustrated. But, reading or something like that -- that's just fine. I sit on my bed or on the couch and plow through it.
Johnny found out that he will actually be graduating from AIT on February 12th, so he'll be getting home a little later than we thought. I was sad, but I can't change it, so we'll just make new plans. (Valentine's Day plans already involve more ice cream than before. ;) He's still doing really well. He's one of the top of his class. His confidence has risen so much. He's happy. It's been really hard to do this, but look what I can give him. He feels like he belongs. He's succeeding. And I'm so proud of him. He deserves this. He's earned it.

Well, the avoidance must end. I have an article on rhetoric waiting for me on the couch. Jealous? ;)
