Onwards Into the Frog

[days_unfolding]

It took me forever to install Python on my netbook, but I finally got it installed. Feeling hammered this morning.  

 

Got myself together with the help of coffee and packed. I'm glad that I made a packing list.

 

My Internet access keeps dropping. I think that I need to call Comcast about it when I get back.

 

The girls conked out at the normal time that I'd go to work. They're probably wondering why I was still rattling around.

 

Made it to Chicago an hour earlier than I had expected. I had planned on getting stuck in stop-and-go traffic, but I didn't get stuck. The Airbnb host didn't seem to mind. He's disappointed that I don't want to use the hot tub though :)

 

I was listening to the book Unfu*k Yourself on  part of the trip up. It made me realize how often I tell myself that I can't do things. Even on this trip, I assumed that I would get lost. But I didn't.

 

I studied Python for hours, so I feel prepared for the class. (I almost said "...so I won't make a fool of myself." Yes, my self-talk needs work. )

 

The laptop wasn't picking up the WiFi, so I'll post this later.

 

I didn't sleep well; I kept on waking up. At the time that I planned to get up, the Airbnb guy across the hall, with whom I'm sharing a bathroom, went into the bathroom for a shower and a shave. I got into the bathroom an hour later than I had planned. Broke speed records showering and putting on makeup. Made it to the class with 5 minutes to spare.

 

Good class so far, except not being able to install GitHub Desktop on my netbook. My studying paid off; I was able to answer a bunch of questions posed by the instructor.
