You Win Some; You Lose Some

I did wake up early this morning. I turned my midterm project in, and I'm very happy with how it turned out. On the practical part of the exam, though, I couldn't get it to come out right. I finally had to turn it in regardless. At least I'll get partial credit. And I think that I got most of the rest of the test right.

Rainy, misty day. The impulse to go back to sleep was strong. At least, I can eat and crash now.

I left the book about Tibetan Buddhism that I checked out at work. Sigh. Too tired to read anything heavy right now anyway.

Free Tibet

Today was problem day at work. Someone in the Business Office sent me a frantic e-mail because she forgot to send me our credit card statement, which I reconcile, and she needed it done today. So I ran around and got it done, and she said that she owed me one. My boss kept on asking questions that required research.

Unfortunately, the front desk worker's sister did die. However, he was at work today. Funeral arrangements are pending.

I remembered to bring my book on Tibetan Buddhism home with me today. I'm going to start it when I'm done posting and get ready for bed.

I was getting silly and looking at Tibetan prayer flags on eBay. It tickles my fancy to hang them in Lincoln, the town where a significant number of people have "Jesus." signs. I might get run out of town on a rail though. Or they might think that I'm a terrorist. No, I didn't get any.

I got even sillier and looked at trips to Tibet. One tour company has a trip to Nepal (Kathmandu) and Tibet (Lhasa), which would be a very cool trip. Travel in the region isn't really expensive because it's a poor region, but airfare is extremely expensive. It's a moot point because I don't have the money, but I'm putting it on my bucket list. Expedia lists the airport in Lhasa as Lhasa, China, which I'm sure that the Tibetans don't appreciate.
