I'm sitting at home on a Wednesday morning. I'm looking up papers for my thesis project, trying to come up with something before my meeting this afternoon with my thesis advisor. Yesterday I got home and just crashed. I watched The Amazing Race for a couple of hours then went to bed. Mom and I commiserated about our busy schedules. She wins, it's not even close.

Life continues as a TA. I'm doing the best I can. It's tough working with people. Not that the people I work with are jerks, more like just disorganized. And I have a hard time approaching people, I feel like I'm going to offend them, so the lines of communication get frayed and I end up messing up even more.
