Pause

I think in Hebrew pause is "selah" although that kind of pause is almost certainly a more reflective pause then this probably will be.

Things seem to be settling down at bit. I am finally getting into a routine I think even though it's actually week 5 now. I cannot believe that much time has passed by. We're almost 1/3rd a way through the semester. That means I'm almost a 1/6th ways through my last year at UWSP. I just have to hope now that while I am settling into a routine that it doesn't become a rut.

Al has me babysitting again tonight. Well technically more monitoring as Alex will hopefully be pretty much on her way to sleeping when I get there. Not completely thrilled to do it but if they think I will be alright then not much to worry about. Besides all the girl's are just a phone call away and I have multiple levels of expert advice. Here's praying that Alex is very tired and sleeps the whole night tho! Think I will take some GITS:SAC and watch that.

Speaking of GITS I looked it up on Wikipedia and unsurprisingly it was well covered. However I got to dig through some of the deeper meanings of the show and now I have a much better grasp of a Stand-Alone Complex. It's funny I didn't understand it before as they quote it almost directly from the show. The concept itself is pretty cool, I was trying to think of an actual real world example of it but so far haven't had much luck.

This weekend I will be going home. I haven't been home in a little over a month so it hasn't really been all that long. Part of me really wants to go to either Barnes and Noble or River City Hobbies and go buy some RPGs but I said I would hold off on that this year. It's good that I made the promise but darned if it isn't hard to keep! I love buying books especially RPGs! Granted there is lots I can read when I'm home. Dad has one of the finest science fiction collections I've ever stumbled upon, especially since our tastes are very similiar.

Well much as I'd like to keep rambling I should pack up for Goulet's class at 3. If you're reading this and haven't read the poem below you really should. It's quite good and frankly it very suddenly explained a number of things about Rememberance Day to me.
