To the couple of people who check in here to whom I owe email. I apologize for being absentee. The internet connection I am stealing from someone in this neighborhood is not at all reliable. And since the last exam, I've been trying to actually have a holiday, so my computer time has been minimal, and my online time almost non existent. I promise though, emails owed will be dealt with. But probably this weekend.
Assuming that is, that I survive my flight. For anyone not aware of how that makes me feel, pretty much this is all you need to know.
As for the last exam... well, it didn't go very well, so that also wasn't working in my favor towards relaxing. I mean, overall the exam went fine. Except for one very large error that I discovered with only one and a half minutes left. Which meant there was not enough time to fix it, and I had to leave it. This error was potentially so bad, that it may have been 'fatal'. Of course, I don't know, but it was quite a big mistake. So time will tell with that. Of course, ending on such a disastrous note made me question the previous two exams as well and get fairly depressed about those too. Still have three to five weeks before the results. At any rate, there is nothing I can do about it now. Still, I wasn't best pleased.
In other news, I've been running around catching up with people. Have seen both my New York friends, and took a trip up to Boston and then to the Berkshires to catch up with five other people. That was really great. Still, it was all rushed. There just isn't any time.
In a way, I don't feel like my vacation even really started until last Wednesday. That's not much time, is it? Not if you include a trip which involved three 3.5 hour legs. What I do for my friends..... but it was really really great to see all of them. And it's so nice to see and hear about how everyone is pretty much doing really well with their lives and are on track to where they want to be. And also nice that when we meet up, it feels like it's been almost no time at all. Though I worry this is a symptom of getting old, but I'll try not to think about that too much.
So back in New York and today I took my mother out for an early mother's day present. Here, mother's day isn't until next month. But I'm just missing it. So I took her to lunch at Gordon Ramsay's New York restaurant. It was fantastic. I mean really fantastic. We had a spectacular time. And then we went to the theater. Which was really good as well. So today has been a really good day with my mom, and that's always nice.
Anyway. I'm tired of my stolen internet going in and out, so I think I'm going to go watch some television and do a crossword puzzle. It'll be London before I know it.
