Directionally Challenged
... so soggy. Actually, this instant, they are happily bare, drying in the comfort of my own room, though the bottom of my jeans are just as soggy as ever.
This week, I finally had a full week of modules, uninterrupted by outside presentations, special excursions, professors out of town, and the like. We're really cracking, now. I am doing so much reading that my eyes are starting to circle uncontrollably in wonky directions, but I enjoy all of ...
