Could you hear the following snatch of conversation:
"I'm thinking of getting a tattoo of a blank syntax tree."
"Ohmigosh, that would be SO COOL!"
Linguistics majors are some seriously awesome folks. ^_^

Dear Blog,
I would like to extend my deepest apologies for neglecting you lately. You see, I've been wildly busy since classes started two weeks ago.
Child Psych has been fun, and homework-free until midterm time. 20th Century French Lit is one of the tougher French classes I've taken, but I'm keeping my head above water for now. Drugs and the Brain would be a total disaster except that Cat and Kristin are slogging through it with me. In Linguistics, we're making our own language, which is totally my kind of thing. It should be fun.
And from classes, straight to work. Five shifts a week plus training. For what, might you ask? Yours truly has been promoted to "student manager in training." In other words, what time I don't spend in class belongs to Jefferson Hall. I flip dressings, I sling roast beef, I learn to cut up a honeydew in four minutes flat, then I go home, eat a (la-a-a-te) dinner, take a shower, do my homework, go to sleep, wake up, and do it all over again.
As you might imagine, this doesn't leave a ton of time for blogging.
So you see, blog, the quantity of my posts here is going to suffer. On the other hand, I'm going to have plenty to write about when I do write. I've got classes that I'm still mostly enjoying, I'm climbing the ladder at work, I get to hang with Sam and Clare, Cat and Kristin, I've got a French class full of Avignon buddies, and even though I'm not spending as much time at home doing nothing as I'd like to, I think I'm learning to deal with it.
It's called Saturday.
Guitar Hero, Pirates of the Caribbean, and blogging. Pretty much the furthest thing from class and work I can manage. Yay!
So anyway, blog, that's why I'm not going to be writing quite as much as I'd initially thought. But so long as there's a soul or two out there reading this, I'll do all I can to keep writing. If for no other reason than to keep from letting class and work drive me totally insane. So I guess even if nobody reads this, I'll still be writing. Woo! Hooray for projecting my experiences and ideas out into an endless void that seldom offers a word of response! *dances*
Guess that's about it for now. Ttfn, Ima go dance now.
