Status report
This was supposed to be my easy semester of library school, and Mondays were supposed to be easier than Mondays have previously been, seeing as how I usually managed to pull down an evening class on Monday and this semester I get out of class at the clement hour of 5 pm.
Yes, well, so much for “easy,” on both counts.
But I’m up-to-date on homework, having just printed tomorrow’s assignment for search class. And except for the Monster Table and the inevitable parse-and-fix round, I’m done with the TEI for the Ireland Land Law book. (And, to tell the truth, I’m more than tempted to tell them that the Monster Table needs to be art. We’ll see what I think once I take another look at it.)
I ordered my hood and gown for graduation today. That felt good. All I gotta do now is finish earning ’em.
I solved a few blog-tool problems for a friend of mine this weekend, and I didn’t have to get out industrial-strength boulders to bash his system with in order to do it, and these things are always good. (Moral of story, though: If a Movable Type plugin doesn’t work, check its UNIX permissions. 640 doesn’t cut it.)
I think I really did do something unsavory to the interior anatomy of my left smallest toe, since two weeks later it’s not healed. It’s manageable, though—bugs me for an hour or so after I put shoes on, then shuts up—so I think I am counting my blessings. Likewise, I’m having a bit of an RSI relapse at the moment, but as pain goes, it’s quite minor and I am grateful for that.
Still a few last-minute things to pack. They can wait until tomorrow.
