Hephestus, Andreas and my rescued laboratory rat, did something he’s never done before. Last night, he chewed through the cord to my computer speakers. Of course he picked the ONE cord that isn’t replaceable: the one that feeds from the computer to the right speaker and doesn’t have a plug on the speaker end. Thanks, little ratty.

Today’s goal is to be totally done with my CPC application. I know, I know: didn’t I say I was doing that last week? Yeah, well I had to wait for SDG to approve “his” letter of rec. And I had to write my Financial Aid statement. So, you know, it took a while.
