general life update, part whatever
Jan. 29th, 2018 10:28 pmI had my check-in appointment with the scholarship program adviser this morning, which went well. (We figured out where we knew each other from, and thus resolved the vague "I'm fairly sure I recognize that face, but from what context???" itch that had been bugging us both. Turns out she used to work upstairs from the smoke shop so I sold her coffee in the morning for several years!) Next week we're going to do a phone interview since as an online student, it's kind of silly for me to take a bus all the way out to TC3 just for a half-hour appointment.
But I bought some highlighters and a green pen, so it's all good. :)
I took a nap after lunch, and then headed in to Not the IRS, where I did tax returns for three clients and also finished and filed my own return. (I love getting documents online; it is SO MUCH FASTER than waiting for paper copies in the mail.) My federal return has already been accepted, so yay!
I was extremely unproductive on Sunday because on Saturday I made the probably unwise life choice of drinking a Black Russian because I had been very productive over the preceding week and I wanted to A) unwind and B) reward myself. So of course I spent Sunday feeling a bit like I'd been run over by a truck made of sofa cushions -- not sore, really, just very, very draggy and brain-fogged.
(...totally worth it, though. Just not remotely something to do either regularly or on a day before I have serious responsibilities to take care of.)
I was still tired today, but just in a normal not-quite-enough-sleep way, and since I will be heading to bed within half an hour, I should be both alert and well-slept tomorrow. :)
