Only one more day to get through, right?

Today was a long day for me. I didn't have to be at UMass until 1:00 for Hebrew class, but something happened last weekend where I didn't really do any of the work I needed to do, so I had to spend all morning reading for my class this evening. Not that I minded the reading- I really like the novels we've had so far in my classes. But to go from reading all morning, to Hebrew, come out with my eyes all swimmy and confused, and then finish up some more reading before my 4:00-6:30 class, makes for a long day. Plus I didn't really eat well today, so I came out at the end wanting to cry. Ah, school. It's fun.

I missed my first class this year yesterday, as I was with Eliza at the hospital getting her arm checked out. I had promised my professor that I would only be late because of the appointment, but she was in there for over two hours and I only would have been able to make the last half hour of a 2 1/2 hour class, so I didn't bother. At least it looks like Eliza won't need surgery for her broken arm after all, which is a very good thing. And our mom is here taking care of her for a few days, so that should help too.

Since I got home today, I haven't been able to do anything but lie on the couch with the internet. I keep thinking I should motivate myself to read, or use my new rowing machine (a very exciting purchase for my overall well-being, if I use it), but I just stay here. Sooner or later the cats will get cranky enough to drive me away, though. They tricked Dave into feeding them this afternoon after they had already eaten, so they feel like they can get whatever they want right about now.
