Rested

I left work early yesterday, fell into bed around four in the afternoon, woke for a short time (had a couple pb & jelly sandwiches) and went back to bed. I feel very good today... not moody, not depressed, just good.

I hope it lasts because my body and mind are exhausted from these mood swings.

I paid a $45 fee left over from fall semester. I can enroll in classes for the summer now, if I choose. I have the weekend to think about it.

Paid today... then spent most of my expendable income during lunch! I did come away with two new jazz cds: Charlie Parker's "Salt Peanuts" (which is a live album recorded in the 40's or early 50's) and Coltrane's "Giant Steps."

Next up: groceries.

Hmmm... thinking about applying for financial aide. I need to talk to an advisor first, make sure that I can do the things I want to do. I think it would be a lot of fun, and extremely interesting, to get a degree in Music and Philosophy. I would have to re-take Aesthetics (at least audit the class) when I am ready to write my senior thesis.

I'm also interested in finding out if there is anyway to make payments on a course fee. Individual instruction for an instrument (in this case the guitar - I want to buy a sax in the fall) is $180, and I can't afford that in one payment.

I'm thinking about the Introduction to Music class. I have zero knowledge in music theory... and figure that an intro course (even though it doesn't apply to any degree) would be good testing ground... to see if I can take school seriously again.

I'd need one other class, as well... just to push me over 6 credit hours. Joc wants me to take a photography class with her, but it's too condensed... five days a week, two hours a day. I'd have to make up that time somewhere, and if I get a second job (I need to pay some bills off) I'll run out of time.

What to do?? What to do??

I'm listening to Irish drinking music and it has occured to me: I want a big, fat beer...
