Whew, It's Over!

Well, indeed, it's over. I turned in my final psychology test and, with it, have completed the year. Or at least potentially completed it, as I might do an extra essay for more personal reasons in relation to a class than for academic reasons (actually, considering its content, it may not be wise academically, but that's not the point, as I'd be writing it on a matter of principle). It kind of feels good, and it feels better to know that I'll be getting out of this tree-constructed prison that is Great Barrington and back in Reno, where I can bother my little brother by my very presence and let my dog out during the day.

And, suddenly, I have time and space. The only thing I don't have is my time and space. I'm writing from the library, having shipped my computer via UPS. A small inconvenience, to be sure, considering that there's little in my room now that I'd need. But it's still odd that I can stretch without kicking or punching something or another. Plus, I'm being forced to work when the library wants me to, and that's a tad annoying.

Anyway, at some undisclosed point during the week, which right now I think is Friday, I'm headed back to Reno. After I'm home, I've got a number of little meetings I have, some catching up to do with some friends, and having some highly desired downtime. And I'll have my pad thai.

Oh, and I'll be helping Mom with her campaign (did I mention she's running for the Nevada Supreme Court? It's pretty exciting, and I've missed a lot of it, being in school). Then I'll be helping some fundraising efforts as well, probably also helping directing said efforts as well. So I'll still have my hands full a bit. But it won't be as hectic, all considered. I think.

Until then (and especially when the library isn't open), there's going to be this little tense gap of time where it feels like I should be doing something and, to some degree, won't be. During that period, I'll probably post again something more issue specific (not sure all what yet), but it won't be now, as its getting a little late. And there's a little too much stimulation here right now, and I've been making some really obnoxious typing errors.

So, until then, know that I have moved from my accountant phase into my fidgety, distracted stage. I wonder if I have a rested, at peace stage? Probably left it in Reno.
