Friday……..
Aren’t Friday’s the best? They are especially nice when you had 2 tests that week. One thing about a test is that you don’t necessarily know how you’ll do before you take it, but you do know that at least it will be over.
I had a pretty tough test today in Stat 424. Which is a math stat class. Its pretty interesting but it is a whole new type of material that takes a little bit to get used to. We have a take-home portion of it thats due next week that’ll be the other half of the grade. I felt like if I had a little more time the in-class part would’ve gone better, but that just means that I’ll need to have the material straight that much more for next time.
Also, Modest Mouse is going to play a concert in Bozeman the Saturday at the end of our spring break. NONE of the bands I’m familiar with ever come to this town. Some do stop by Missoula, which is a little larger and a few hours to the west. That’s the town that inspired me to come to school here actually. Modest Mouse is a band I tried to see about 3 years ago in Minneapolis but the show sold out before I was able to get tickets. So this is exciting. One of the things I miss about Asheville is the fairly regular supply of music they have coming through there.
Unlike Davy, there are no ziplines or gorillas in my possible future. I do think I’ll go down to Yellowstone tomorrow. Bridger can be a little hectic on the weekends and finding some peace will be nice. Thanks for reading about my little slice of the universe out here. Hope that whoever you are and and whatever you’re doing things are working out for you.

That would be Fridays, and they are indeed fine! Hope Modest Mouse is great. Hope you have fun cross-country skiing if you do that. Keep teaching and learning and avoid full elevators!
I am sorry I missed your birthday, but since I have never done niece/nephew birthdays I daresay you weren’t surprised. I do want to say I am glad you had a Happy day, and I agree that you are so very clever to have put yourself in a situation you love!
A good setting, a good program, lots of snow. Far better than ziplines and gibbons, to my way of thinking.
Will you be home at all over the summer?
Aunt Binky
Binky, I do plan on coming home in the summer sometime. I will certainly let you know when. It depends on my employment through school and which session of summer school i might be potentially teaching a class for.
Are you going/did you go to the concert?
Both the problem and good thing with Tokyo is that concerts are quite expensive, but tons of bands come all the time. It’s easy to get tickets for the ones I like because not that many Japanese people like them. 70 dollars for front row to both Tool and Mars Volta. ackkk why is my wallet so light?
