I haven't been here in ages, except to try to catch up with friends' journals. Things have been insane at work (work and school are the only two places I have Internet access) and I've been behind on all my lists, e-mail, everything. Haven't been out with the Vegas Fen group in ages, either. I'll be so glad when I'm done with school! January 11 is my last day of class but graduation isn't until April. I'm a bit worried about being able to finish because I got a vaguely threatening form letter from the financial people last week indicating that they might not cover the rest of my tuition (even though my loan is supposed to cover me through graduation - at least one of my friends at school had her loan rescinded just before this quarter began). I don't see how they can get away with threatening my financial aid after the final quarter has begun . . . maybe I'm worrying about nothing. I have till Friday to reply, so I'll get there early tomorrow and talk with the guy. I don't like the financial people much - I've never seen them smile, ever.

Haven't been doing much fannish stuff at all. I began re-reading the Sime~Gen novels; finished "First Channel" and am half-way through "Channel's Destiny". I'm most anxious to get to "Unto Zeor, Forever!", which finally answers the question of which one is my favorite. I could never choose, but I feel like I can't read the others fast enough so I can get to "Unto...". I think that means I have a favorite.

I did watch lots and lots of Starsky & Hutch eps last weekend while DH was working Faire (I didn't get to go for various reasons), which was great. I finally got those, Sentinel, the few DueSouth I have, Xena, and Highlander out of storage. All the Star Treks, the Twilight Zone, and Buffy are still there but I have plenty of good viewing now. Yay!

I read a Jack Sparrow death story yesterday but when I went back to comment, somehow I'd lost the page. I don't remember the title or the author but I believe it was on the Pirategasm lj. Very, very good. I don't usually read death stories, but I don't absolutely refuse to read them, either and this one came highly recommended.

Not much else going on. I feel very much as if I'm on autopilot. Blah. Did I say how glad I'll be to be done with school? I've enjoyed it, but I'm feeling burnt out and this quarter I have no legal classes, just accounting and American National Government (and computer applications, which I'll try to test out of Friday) and I feel like I'm just marking time till I'm done. Plus if I test out of computer apps, all my classes will be 8:00 p.m. classes, which is a bit annoying, though it will give me more time to be on line and catch up with things like this lj. At least this quarter has lots of breaks!
