I have an uneasy feeling in the pit of my stomach about Burma.

I am slowly returning to humanity, now that the grant proposal is done. Well, it’s done in the sense that I made the first deadline – now to deal with my campus committee, who will be sure to make all sorts of changes that I will then have to implement before my next deadline (mid-October). Yay!

In other news – Peru was fabulous, I made 25 days out of 28 for my yoga initiative, and then proceeded to go a month without yoga. But I’m back in the game tonight, and aiming for 2-3 times a week.

I’m also aiming for 2-3 x a week for climbing, because I’m finally getting around to learning to lead. October. Assuming life doesn’t screw me before then.

And in other other news – I might be getting a promotion.
