After This, the Deluge

Summer Semester begins in earnest tomorrow. I've been meeting with F for almost a month now, but the topology seminar begins tomorrow at noon. (It'll be meeting MTWTh, 12:00-1:00.) I'll be meeting with one of my Senior Project students at 1:00 - this will be a regular Tuesday occurrence - and with F at 2:00, likewise every Tuesday. I also need to set up a schedule for my other Senior Project student and my Master's student.
I spent today lazily; I've been doing some bookkeeping and bill-paying, but more of my time has gone to websurfing (of course), Civ IV (as Napoleon), fixing a batch of fettuccine alla Romana (tasty and filling, if a bit greasy), and nibbling on pistachios. (I picked up a small bag at Shop'n'Save yesterday.) Over the weekend, I started in on my "Scarecrow & Mrs. King" DVDs. (I'm having trouble dealing with Bruce Boxleitner's hair: it's a mop, and parted in the middle. John Sheridan would never have worn his hair that way.... Also, there's no opening trailer - they go into the opening credits immediately. I haven't watched shows of this vintage in a long time; was this normal, then? When did it change?)
I'm reading Middlemarch and Kwame Appiah's Cosmopolitanism both on the bus, alternately, and Williamson's Wonder's Child at home. I do intend to review Animals in Translation soon, but I may not have time before the next weekend. We'll see.
Ah, well. "Once more unto the breach..."
