Thankfulness
I think we all need to hold hands and go around the table saying what we're thankful for. I'll start:I'm thankful that I finally started a job yesterday and that it's not going to be a problem to get class nights off. I'm thankful that I am a student and therefore can more easily maintain some distance between my self-concept and my low-level job. I'm thankful that I have friends who are understanding when I'm on the verge of complete collapse.
I'm thankful that I stumbled across a cheap copy of Kafka's Brief an den Vater. I'm thankful that it's looking like I'll at least finish up my regular classes before the end of the semester and can definitely finish the directed studies before next semester starts. I'm thankful that my impending ten hours of driving within three days will give me plenty of time to do my German CDs.
I'm thankful that I'm going to see Andrew Bird Saturday.
Okay, Jodi, your turn. [UPDATE: Jodi apparently hasn't sat down yet. Let's just have a random cacophony instead of taking turns.]
