Thanksgiving.
Nov. 22nd, 2007 12:57 pmDue to lack of tenure within my department, there was no way I could make it home (or anywhere else) for the holidays. I worked yesterday, I will work tomorrow, and I only have today off.
Despite several invitations (and thank you all for those), I've decided to spend today peacefully at home recouping from work stress. I spent some time typing for NaNoWriMo this morning, and I've also been working on a cover of the Beatles' "Julia". Although I've given up for now (C#m on that bridge? That can't be right, I remember how dramatic that chord change sounds on piano!) it makes me feel close to my father. Fiddling with the piano often does. And that makes me happy.
I tried to call home, but no one picked up, so I'll try back later.
And don't forget...
