The end of the semester is only three weeks away. I spent some time tonight working on final portfolios, and will probably get back to that in a few minutes.

Typically around this time of year I find myself getting restless. This year that hasn't so much been the case. I could speculate as to why: maybe Baltimore still feels new and open for exploration; maybe because I'm going to Vegas in a few days. Which I am most certainly looking forward to. Maybe because I've got other things on my mind. Actually, I feel in a sense that parts of my brain have just kind of shut down for awhile. It's hard to articulate and frankly, I don't think that this is the medium for it.

In other news, I am finding that, now that warmer weather is here, I miss having a car. I listen to a lot less music now that I don't drive anywhere. A couple months in Michigan should help to cure that; I've decided that I'm going back there this summer, pending a job at my former place of employment. I'm also looking forward to spending some time with my people. Exploring a new place is fun, but not always as fun when you're doing it alone.

Don't worry; I will, of course, be back here in the fall for MFA year two.

Well, back to the homework.
