New house news, etc.

Our house is slowly coming together.
By that I mean it feels more like a lived-in house than a loading dock.
We're getting along really well, hanging out, cooking, fixing up the place.
I found some half-dead mint in a pot which I replanted and am reviving.
My bathroom is looking pretty good.
I have a neat bamboo candle-shade on the toilet, and the toothbrush holder is in a little wooden cup with kanji.
We still need to figure out how to get string lights out to the deck in front.

This is the last week of school.
This is it.
The final push.
I'm confident I will pass Applied Discrete Math this time.
CS 101 is a dif0ferent story.
I did a lot better that I though I had on the second midterm, but the final will be hard.

I've found that mixing some genmai cha (Japanese green tea with brown rice) into my yerba mate yields pleasing results.
It does, however, make the gourd harder to clean since the green tea expands a lot when wet.

I have a land line now, internet should be up by the 15th.
I'll be sending out the number over email.
