It has been a while since I have written but that is the beauty of a journal, one doesn’t get grief when one doesn’t write in it except from oneself.
The weekend was exciting. Friday night We went out to the Court and I got pretty drunk. The highlights were me breaking up a fight between Peter and some guy who was hitting on Kim. I also got the full story on Kim and Oh what a story it is.
Apparently she was dating some black married man who used to teach here or maybe still does but his wife found out about it and Kim started black-mailing her or something. I never got the whole story or if I did I do not remember it. Suffice it to say that after Friday night my Kim days were over.
Saturday I had class and I had decided Friday night that I wanted to go see Rhea. I had called her on Friday at 2:30am but did not talk to her. I called on Saturday and talked to String and she told me they had to go to Cinci. for Rhea’s Mom’s birthday. I told her I would be there when they got home. SO i packed up my dirty laundry and went. Saturday night after they got back was fun. I kept fearing hints about somethings that happened on Friday but I never got the whole story until later.
I think I’m going to apply to another school for a PhD program in Linguistics or something very closely related to it (Anthropological Linguistics) and see if I get a
ride anywhere. If I do I think i will still take a year off and see if i can get a job.
Here is my list of schools right now:
9. City University of New York
8. MIT
7. MSU
6. U. of Chicago
5. U. of Colorado
4. U. of Oregon
3. U. of Pitt.
2. U. of Wash.
1. IU
These are in no particular order. I’m going to write to all nine for info and try to narrow it down to four or six to apply to. I guess that is it for now except that I really feel like my head is in order this week.
Rhea is coming over for the weekend. So is Dano so it should be fun. We are having a party on Friday. Fun fun.
