- Reading, questions and re-organization of data for Digital Libraries

-Class outlines for Spring collegium that I'd like to teach at.

- Any time left over will be spent doing fun things, like working on the trim that's due next Saturday, articles due for GBT or anything else not related to schoolwork.

A fun fun dress

So, I've been avoiding homework by looking at dress patterns.

I *love* this one, so 1950's

This one reminds me of Italy for some reason.

This is the one I'll probably end up getting.

This one is another cute one, although the ruffly hem reminds me of my boss, which isn't a bad thing.

This is a totally cute suit, I love those princess seams and the buttons up the front.
