I SHOULD be on the bus to Folwell, but I'm not. Yahoooo!!
So, I woke up late this morning... late, as in, 10 minutes before I was supposed to be on the OTHER side of the river for Shakespeare class. I remember being really tired last night... I think I had been doing some reading in prep for leading Chi Alpha this Sunday, and fell asleep on the floor for at least a little while... I somehow managed to get into pajamas, though, and climb into bed... *shrugs*
(On a side note, for those of you who haven't heard about my room... my bed is lofted; therefore, "Going to bed" requires a little more dexterity now than it used to... some people prefer to call it "army-crawling to bed.")
Anyway - I was late to class by ten minutes or so, but Professor Tandy is extremely laid back about tardiness (as evidenced by the people that walked in even later than I did) and we're watching Much Ado About Nothing (yay!!!!!), so I didn't miss too much - I've seen it many a time (once again, I find myself very thankful for my upbringing)! The source of my worry was, instead, my assignment for Historical Linguistics... it was assigned on Wednesday, due on Friday (today), and I - not thinking - finally looked at it late Thursday afternoon, only to realize that it's over morphological change in the nominative/accusative/dative/genitive cases of English pronouns. (Yes, you may laugh at my nerdiness...) I'm all over the morphological change part - and the English pronouns - but CASES?? What?! Pretty sure I know next to nothing about cases - what they are, where they are, etc. I did some research, but reading about it really wasn't helping, and so my work - what little is done - is a little off-the-mark (to say the least). And what does this have to do with waking up late? I [told myself I would] go back over it in the morning before I went to Shakespeare class. Greeeeeeeat.... scratch that. But then....
I walked back from Shakespeare (all the while thinking, It's okay, no reason to ruin my day, take it in stride, calm calm calm...), came to my computer thinking "Okay... reeeeallly need to find more about cases," opened up Firefox, and - out of habit - checked my e-mail. The following appeared:
hey all -
the professor's out sick today. no class! happy friday!
(turn in homework monday.)
It is SO AWESOME serving a God who even cares about the little stuff... even the little messes, when it's my own darn fault I got myself into them.
Thank You, thank You, thank You...!
*sigh*
I'm going to go enjoy a nice leisurely lunch... then go to Korean... then... the weekend. :)
P.S. For fun, here's a youtube video entitled "Beatboxing flut inspector gadget remix." I know. Just watch it.
