i really don't approve of the time change.

top 5 npr hosts:

luke burbank
neal conan
diane rehm
zorba pastor
peter sagal

(close behind are ira glass, carl kasell, and the car talk guys)

that being said, how ridiculously frustrated am i that zorba himself will be speaking at the OMRF (oklahoma medical research foundation, jeff's former employer in okc) on THE DAY we arrive...

sigh. at least ira will be in houston this january.

good things to come:

jeff only has 3 more semesters of classes ahead of him (before plunging head first into 2+ years of solid research), and his class schedules have already been worked out for all of them! hooray! and even better: only 2 classes per semester (compared with 3 this semester, which has nearly killed both of us), and it appears as if all of them will be directly related to his field.

i was persuaded into working more hours at the gallery until christmas, which i don't really mind aside from having to be there 6 days a week. but it's only 40 hours, 5 of which will be super extra mega pay. so that's nice. it'll also bump me up to 25 miles a week, which i'm looking forward to.

i have been crafting like crazy this week. i have felt coming out of my ears. and a convenient sale at target on shelves helped me to get everything much more organized.

5 days to okc! and we have a super secret plan to steal some time for nick's amazing thai! can't wait.
