I'm doing better, I've got one notebook where I actually don't write fanfics or doodle so I'm pretty proud about my restraint there. I've got an outline (loosely speaking) for one essay, the other has to wait until I've gotten the book and read the 11 chapters of crap but maybe I can find an audiobook in the meantime. The other "essay" is just a short story from like 5-15 pages but every time I get an idea to start it, it's crap and I don't have much more time before I submit it for workshop. Other than that stuff, things are pretty good...the classes themselves aren't hard, it's just the whole 'everything due at the same time' thing that's a killer but I am trying to get it done sooner than later. ^^' /ramble Because if I do get that all done, I can spend next week on the Guild rather than wondering why I waited until the last night. I am considering an all nighter tonight though because I'm hell bent on catching up on here as well as with my academia. With any luck, it is healing properly. It sounds like you are being careful. ^ ^ Maybe by the time your appointment rolls around, it'll be less bruised and you'll be able to get back to using both feet. But hey, there was the option of a kickass peg leg. And I think if you try kicking anything else in the future, the wall or door or anything else knows you're boss. XD
