In site news, I have the coding for the redesigned main site finished and it’s going up a little bit at a time. The first five story excerpts have been posted and more will follow. I thought I’d give everyone’s RSS feeds (and eyeballs) a bit of a break. Here’s a run-down of my current state-of-affairs:

• I am glad beyond belief to be back at school. I really missed this place and everyone in it. Thinking about having only five months left is depressing beyond belief.
• Today was the first day of classes, and, aside from having a class moved to 8:30 a.m. and having two other classes (in a row) in the Most Uncomfortable Classroom Ever, things look pretty good.
• I bothered professors until letters of recommendation got uploaded. Thank. God.
• I have now seen every episode of House. I am thoroughly obsessed, but, on the bright side of things, I’ve got at least two other suitemates enjoying the show, so there should be no trouble claiming the television in the name of House every Tuesday at 9 p.m. I knew Mark would appreciate misanthropic sarcasm on a whole new scale.
• The 250 GB external hard drive my parents gave me for Christmas makes me happy. I still have lots of stuff to transfer off of my laptop’s drive (mostly music), but I’m definitely enjoying the freedom to, y’know, save things.
• Have finished reading American Gods. I nearly picked up Anansi Boys in the bookstore yesterday because it was 50% off, but I resisted. Considering that I spent almost $300 on books tonight and will be spending an addition $126 tomorrow, this is probably good. Textbooks are quite expensive, but I figured it was about time I start collecting some fluids texts that will be useful in graduate school.

There’s something a bit skeezy about writing my update in bullet format. It feels very LiveJournalish, but I think I may need more of that, to be honest. Here’s to a new semester.
