Weekend Recap

oneirophreniaJust finished a whole day's worth of syllabi editing, correcting, essay-selecting, and whatnot for class--which starts one week from this Monday.
Tuesday...surgery. I'll admit it: I am terrified. Not of going under--I'm always down with Morpheus, whether he comes to me at the end of the day or through a needle in a doctor's office--but of waking up to the horror of having bleeding, shredded holes in my mandible. They'd better have a handful of Oxycontin ready for me, that's all I gotta say.
Anyway, here's a quick weekend recap for y'all, and then I'm going to curl up on the couch with the grey beast and watch some anime or Ghostbusters.
Got to see the mighty![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
cathgrey on Friday, for the first time this year. That was very nice, indeed. Cath...seriously, if I ever make it over to Europe, we're going on a week-long Transylvanian bender! Happy birthday, too, woman! Also got to meet shimmer_star's fella Chris, who is completely awesome and really reminds me of the singer from The Bravery, at least in appearance.
Saturday, went to breakfast withsiliconedreamer at Pamela's in Oakland and was shocked--SHOCKED, I tell you--by the psychotronic Haight-Ashbury-meets-Andy-Warhol facelift the place has gotten. It now looks like Tom's Diner after a hit of that brown acid; I was half-expecting to see Hunter S. Thompson and Tom Wolfe sprawled at one of the tables in the back with a heap of assorted pills strewn about before them. But at least the food is still greasy and good! After that, I washed up at the Crazy Mocha in Bloomfield to work on class structure and clean up organization a bit. Met kaspellsgoddess's sister Andrea there and we went out to grab some food and talk--she's pretty damn awesome. Then, of course, it was off to Ceremony for the usual drunken revelry. I must compliment both terrorfirmasky and beeporama for rockin' my ass most solidly. Laibach, And One, RevCo....Hell. Yeah.
And, well, today...you already know: finishing up my class shite, playing with the cat, dozing on the porch, etc. This coming week is going to such bigtime, but that's okay: soon the semester will be starting and I will have at least 180 new students to terrorize and brainwash into believing that I am the living incarnation of De-evolution, the re-fleshed J. R. "Bob" Dobbs Himself, come to deliver them unto the UFOs on X-Day (a.k.a. the Last Day of Finals Week)!
