Been feeling borderline under the weather. (under turns to nuder if you type poorly). I have mild nausea and my throat feels funny off and on and my lips seemed chapped but chapstick didn't help, so I figured I needed a break from it. So, mostly 2 days without chapstick (I broke down a few times - like before bed).

Still overly excited about school. On Monday, I'll start school in 8 weeks, and even be able to say "next month" for when I start!!! (Sure, it's March 30th, but technically next month). I'll start training my replacement at work (not nearly enough time to pass on all of my knowledge!!!), and also meet a new post-doc that will be here for a year (from Spain). I really will miss the eclectic international groups that I work with. I wonder when it will kick in that my life will be upside down.

Saturday, I'm going to a "Falconry" class. I think it'll involve learning about the birds, and then watching a bird actually hunt for some tasty wildlife. I wonder what their options will be at the end of January. Wow.. I can't believe January is like.. over. That leaves only February for winter winter, since March starts to warm up. I want SNOW SNOW. The little fake attempts at snow are so disheartening. Wake up to snow, leave work to slippery slush. Even today, I slipped and fell. I've been lucky and never hurt myself that way, but you never know when luck may run out.
