than you to everyone who sent me pretty sparklies today via LJ! you are all beautiful lovelies and every one of them made me grin like a loon and adore you all more!

the short and sweet is that i have a rough draft (rough rough, but still, there) of my paper due on Wed done. I am beginning tonight to study for my Japanese final on Wednesday. I was hoping to start on my paper due Friday, but that will probably be deffered until tomorrow.

I'm also sick. It started out as a head cold. I took some alieve-d, and now it's gone from sinus to a dry cough. Yuck. (of course the cough may have something to do with the fact that i finally turned the heater up after freezing for most of the day in the office while i was writing).

I hope you're all well and warm tonight. It's cool it rained here all day today and I didn't have to go out in it ... and was productive. Even with the cold, it still feels like a win.
