Mostly, I have been rushing

Most of my days have been like this: wake up, rush to do things, rush to uni, try to work, rush home, try to do more things, rush to meet people, discuss agendas.

So, yesterday uni was all tippetytaptippetytap as fast as I can because I am meant to be finishing a chapter by tomorrow (hah!) or maybe monday (which would still involve writing around 19,000 words in four days). Plus also some lunch, and some looking-after-baby-Phoebe. And then I rushed home, went to the shops, baked a cake while trying to talk coherently to K (who very nicely forced me to sit down and relax for a while and did the dishes), and then rushed off to Think Tank meeting. We had an agenda for think tank. It was an actual, real, action-points, meeting. The upshot of it was:

Now that we have our doteasy account, I need to learn how to make it go. Our website will need to have a few publications, maybe some blogs, and maybe some discussion forums. Can anyone recommend a good tutorial or...something... I am not even entirely sure what it is that I need. Some sort of dreamweaverish program?

This morning I have been rushing around packing school lunches and planting garlic and tidying things that I feel need to be tidy so that I feel good about life.

And now I am at uni, and it is work-time, which I feel quite good about.

I would like you all to know that I miss you, though, and the reason I am being all Absent is busy-related: I still like you very much. *hugs*

Doteasy uses their own sitebuilding software. If you log into the account you will be able to see what to do. It's not the easiest thing in the world but if you're just building a basic site it shouldn't be too hard. I'm sure you won't have a problem!

Thanks! I looked around, but I will look around again in a having-more-time context. Congratulations on your many achievements, by the way! I am looking forward to your art show veryvery much.

I miss you little kittycat! That's right, you are a kittycat. Deal with it.

I have dealt with it. Miaow! You are also a kittycat, though. Some days we will make a kittycat pile, where we watch Buffy and miaow a lot, and preen our whiskers. *hugs*

I am also about to join the world of unreasonably busy, so its funtimes ahoy for both of us.

Yes, one of my students told me the election has been called - fun ahead indeed!

An election?! Oh damn, now I've got to change my electoral location. Or just vote in the WA election, I suppose...

In other news, it makes me pleased, and also sad, that I am finding out about political developments through livejournal and not the mainstream media. Hello, completed thesis!

Well, maybe not. But I was hoping for a slight second...
