okay, so.

My evil roommate hasn't spoken to me for weeks and I think I've finally mostly relaxed and am not constantly on alert that she'll poke her head in to give me a little petty jab and upset my entire balance (I've really got to work on the emotional over-reaction thing, I mean my emotions really seem to go way out of proportion to what's going on); I got an full week's extension on the evil mechanics homework which I started already and kind of understand; I already got started on E&M which isn't due till Friday; I only have to fix up like one problem on the linear algebra homework for tomorrow; I'mma study my ass off for the math 380 exam this friday and I'll have time to do it because I've already started E&M; I can pretty much walk on my broken toe again; I went back to aikido practice tonight for the first time in about four weeks since I broke my toe, and my rolls are suddenly working--I didn't hurt my left shoulder on the front rolls like I was doing before because I was landing instead of rolling on it; and I had a great meal with my sweet, loving bf and his mom who likes me. And the semester's almost over, with only two weeks, which are going to be relatively easy, left (hugs to those who are not having such an easy time). And I am pretty sure I have a place for the summer which is a really cute room in a really nice co-op house with big common areas and a nice big porch to sit and watch thunderstorms on, and the room is really cheap, like $165/month really cheap, and it's a gorgeous bike ride to campus which is important because I have two jobs at the university that together will give me 40 hours a week. I'm even thinking about picking up a retail job for a little extra, but I'll only do that if I find myself bored, which I doubt I will because I'm going to be spending all the time I can outside, or practicing aikido, or playing on the internet probably working on my website which has been sitting there calling to me for weeks now.

And today I found myself enjoying solving a problem. It's been ages since I've enjoyed figuring something out like I did today. I've been all jealous of people who really enjoy figuring stuff out, because I don't seem to have the attention span to keep working on something until I get it, but I can enjoy problem solving if I remind myself that I like it. Sometimes I forget. Maybe this time I'll remember.

So I'm feeling pretty good. It's a nice change from the past few weeks. I hope I stay feeling pretty good, because I'm really tired of being depressed.
