Hooray!

SNAFU is now listed under Beg Me For It on RS.org, and Stand In The Ruins has been sent in to them, as well as chapters 2-5 of Reunion.

Now I have to outline Reunion. Because it seems I have a WiP going. Whoops, how did that happen? I make no promises as to how long it takes me to update this story.

Life has finally levelled out a bit. No new word on wildernessguru's mom, but it's all good on that end. Now doing the school-schedule do-see-do. I'm trying to study my favourite subject (cue scary organ music and voice frosted with sarcasm): math.

But goseaward and sharp_tongue explained over the weekend that Algebra is the logic of describing lines, while Calculus is the logic of describing curves. Which, finally, at long last someone has given me a point to all this stuff! I may suck at it. My eyes may glaze over like someone's describing a really boring dream when someone fires numbers at me. But there is, in fact, a point to this stuff.

(Trig always made sense to me. I used it for my surveying class, and I used it to hand-calculate my astrology charts -- and you're not a real astrologer until you've calculated at least one chart by hand).

OK. When it's finished to your satisfaction, note that in your LJ, and I can begin to roll around ideas for an essay on it. But first that gives me the excuse of going back and re-reading it all slowly and carefully (I try to research thoroughly, before writing). What a hideous fate.

Of course, my classes start next week, which is going to slow me down a lot. But your last installment gives me something to look forward to. Now, if only finalizing my course syllabi were half as interesting . . .

I'll post the whole thing in my LJ when it's ready. It shouldn't be long, I've just been side-tracked by RL. I'm back at university on September 27th, so I can't tinker with it too long.
