Hibernation ends.

I think I may actually have been in a kind of living coma over the holidays. Honestly, I'm not sure where they went. They were good, amd for the first time, we opened presents Xmas morning in our own house. It felt decidedly grown-up.

Nothing to rip you right back into the land of the living than term papers and essays- and lots of them! Suddenly I'm seeing direction in what I'm pursuing, not just knowledge for its own sake. Next year, I actually get to make my first foray into Environmental Planning. Neat! I've been looking extensively into transfer programs, or research opportunities in nearby Northern Latitudes. Not necessarily for this year or next year, more for my own information, in order to gauge what exactly is out there.

In other news, I've been trying diligently to stand by my training schedule for the distant spring. My first Edmonton winter has left me slightly squishier and wheezier than usual. Feel the burn, bitches.

I don't know what has been hanging over me lately. I thought last year was the year for change, but there's been something ominous about 2008 so far- not necessarily negative, just a hint of an impending....something....waiting to happen. Keep your ears to the ground, and your eyes on the streets, kids. Maybe it's already happening...
