almost done...

only one more paper to write...but what am I doing but drinking with my roommates and packing. the roommates are leaving tomorrow (weird), so I'll have some time and space to write and prep for the rest of the move. much grading to be done tomorrow and some moving, but alas, the paper writing will begin again on wednesday. less than a week until my move from madison. a bit of time in chicago, a bit of time in nyc, and then, kigali. the end of the semester has left me feeling completely overwhelmed and I'm in no way ready to go to rwanda. there's much to be done and while I'm trying to hammer out the details (uh, plane ticket anyone?), I've got to get through this next week.


in a small break between the chaos, I spent the weekend in chi. after having dinner with sheila and her fiancé, mark (who really does seem to be a great fit for shay), mct and I had a really lovely and wonderful weekend. there's a lot that I could say about him and about our relationship. in short, we are really good right now. really good.
