Rainy day

So the week started off sunny and I was in a very happy mood (for some unknown reason). Now it's gloomy and rainy, but it's Friday, and I'm still in a fairly good mood.

1) I sent out all my job applications. Now I get to wait and fret and worry about this for four months, as these have been sent out quite early.

2) My last make-up class for all the lectures I'm missing this semester is in seven minutes, and that means that we'll only have two classes a week from now on, except when I'm out of town and we have one or none.

3) A professor from Wash U is giving a colloquium here today, and he gives great lectures. I've already said hi to him, and it is a little surreal seeing him here.

4) It's the weekend, and although I have to prepare my talk for Bonn (I leave on Tuesday), I love not having to come to campus. (I should have worked from home on Monday and Tuesday, when we had fall break.)
