Oh the depths to which I had sunk!

I've been taking classes non-stop since the couple free days after spring semester ended, so I've been doing the very minimum in housekeeping chores. It was beginning to drive me insane, but I knew I dared not take any time to clean when I was writing one paper after another. I finally finished writing my final research paper, and the first thing I did was attack my apartment with a vengeance. I had papers strewn everywhere from all my researching. My tub needed a thorough scrubbing from soap scum. I moved furniture to vacuum, I dusted, and I scrubbed sinks. I had 4 months worth of bills and receipts to file, as well as my papers from my SEMMA bookkeeping. The only thing I didn't do was scrub my kitchen floor which still needs to be done. Then I lit some candles and sat down to relish my clean apartment.

On Monday, I also finished my final which was a take home assignment to write an essay on me as a writer in relation to Gordan Allport's In-group theory and Francis Bacon's Idol's of the Mind theory. We were supposed to identify in-groups and idols (fixations) that influence our writing, especially the barriers that they create for us. I handed that in yesterday morning. This morning I handed in my final research paper--all 18 pages of it. Now I'm FREE for two weeks. Well, I still have to work, but I'm free from studying.

I am planning to go home for a visit and see my eye doctor. I've almost decided to take the plunge and get laser surgery done. I currently use CRT lenses, which correct my vision while I sleep then I can take them out and see fine for about 4 days before my vision starts to blur again. Most of the time I forget to wear them so I go around with blurry vision.
