Technically it's Thursday And here is my update for Pax and Occhiblu.→[More:]

My classes for this term have changed. I ditched Intro to Environmental Science because no time for lab. Instead, I'll have Sociology of Gender and World Ethnographies. I have 5 Chapters of Nisa to read and one chapter of my Gender text (by Wharton) and I need to choose and bring a gendered childhood object for our lecture on toys on Monday. I have no writing assignments yet for the term. There is recommended reading for my gender class, Simon Baron-Cohen's book, The Essential Difference. (He's a cousin of the famous guy.)

I'll be working at the yarn store Thursday and Friday and then driving home Friday to bring Nick back to Hollywood (we'll come back Sunday morning) so the reading time between now and Monday is at a premium.

World Ethnographies

That sounds like fun! I have no idea what this updating business for Pax and Occhiblu is about, though, so I'm probably intruding in some ongoing discussion. But still, sounds like an interesting class.

Cool classes!

There is no intrusion, CitrusFreak. Bilabial and I just told PaxDigita we'd report on our homework status regularly, in order to keep ourselves on track. But input, encouragement, or randomness from everyone else is encouraged!

If we don't beat PaxDigita to it, we get berated, er, encouraged!

I have 80 more pages of Nisa to go, and the Wharton chapter is unstarted. I also need to figure out what to do with a yarn called Lavish from Berrocco.
