I really should start updating more often. But eh. Who cares?
Tonight I've made spaghetti sauce, fried eggplant, and blueberry-banana muffins. The sauce is okay, the eggplant is pretty good but a little salty for some reason (I blame the seasoned breadcrumbs), and the muffins are still in the oven, so we'll see. I've printed out tons of recipes from Recipezaar and I really wish I had more time to play around with cooking and baking. Stupid school and work (and fencing), sucking up all my time. >/
School is going smoothly so far. Classical Japanese is tough, but I think I'm slowly starting to figure it out (no thanks to the teacher). English 372 (lamely entitled All About the Sentence, formerly Modern Structure of the English Language) is pretty much a waste of time--it's just more linguistics crap I already know--but it's a requirement, so I have to take it. But it's easy, which is good. Sociolinguistics isn't too exciting either, but it's not quite as bad, and it's a topic I really enjoy. (And it's also super easy.) And lastly, there's Old English, which is probably my favorite class this semester. It's fun learning an extinct, useless language, but the best part of the class is the teacher, who may be my favorite professor so far in college. He's such a smartass and I LOVE it. :D
Doot di doot. What else? This is a busy month, celebration-wise. My sister's birthday is the 13th, as is my best friend's, Dwayne's is the 16th, and Valerie is getting married on the 19th! Holy crap. Craziness. My wallet's gonna get a bit lighter these next few weeks...
I just found some bites on my thigh. Let's hope they're just flea bites... oh snap! Just saw one on my keyboard! Bastard flea! ...but I'd rather have you and a few of your friends around than those vile hellbeasts known as bedbugs.... *shudder* I guess this means I need to get some drops for my kitties. There goes more money...
I guess I'll go try one of my muffins now. They're kind of green, but hopefully they'll taste good anyway. And then I have to attack that mountain of dishes that I produced tonight...
