Crise de Temps
What Tourmaline Needs To Do:
Study for probability midterm on Thursday, so as to get good grade.
Get her OSAP password renewed and apply for OSAP student loan (Ontario Student Assistance Program, for ye non-Ontario-ites): mother delivered ultimatum that her paying for both me and my brother for the winter semester is mathematically impossible (me paying for myself is also mathematically impossible) and what do I think I am, cool or something, for not taking a loan out? Of course, I had set my OSAP entry password back in high school, and forgot it long ago.
Finish up that slide show for Trivia Night on November 17 (pictures are inserted, but animation needs to be done, Tenth Round needs to be written, and the whole thing converted to Keynote, QuickTime, etc.)
Work on her obertas turns - show on November 4, and if you do not get yourself able to do the hopak sequence of turns, there ain't a whelk's chance in a supernova you are performing, honey. ("get yourself able" was not a structure of standard English, methinks, before I wrote this sentence...)
Apply for grad school, darn you, we have beaten that dead horse before.
Pick term paper subject for Cryptography and start writing paper.
Find practice-interview subject for Urban Dialectology. Sign for the equipment, by the way - horrible neck problems kept me away from class on Monday.
Finish writing the interview questions for Urban Di - by tonight.
Get further involved in the Urban Di community under study.
Clean room.
Organise and advertise the NAQT High School Tournament on November 18.
What Tourmaline Wants To Do
Rewrite first two chapters of Novel #1, attack the chaotic mess of Cool Scenes that is Novel #2, pull all the wiki notes into Novel #3, continue the very interesting draft of Novel #4, since methinks I left my characters in a sticky situation for months. And rewrite opening scene of Novel #4, for 'tis very descriptive and probably boring. And put that short story opening I scribbled down in my journal into typewritten form and continue it.
Format and compile the chat notes from my last eight tarot readings.
Run an index on said readings. Persuade LaTeX to produce an index, darnit!
LaTeX the fractal formulas for Alice Kelley's 2007 calendar.
Scan some black and white drawings of mine, and colour them in GIMP, because that would be fun.
Finish that card I was drawing in GIMP, because it is cool.
Purchase that lovely card case I saw today, for the smart deck to live in.
Purchase business card holders for the smart deck to be dressed in. (Yes, I love the smart deck. Did I write about it? No, I did not...)
Write long and loving journal post about the smart deck.
Finish that lovely Vysotsky parody that I warned about.
Purchase that edition of the Medieval Scapini that is calling my name, and play with it...
Get some nice boots (waterproof and reasonably winterproof) and a nice bag - not that mine isn't nice, but...I am a woman...
Get money.
Get back to aikido - but that would mean losing some of time to do other things on the want list.
Happiness is when the desired coincides with the real. I am pretty far from happiness right now.
I wish you joy, I go to write questions about the Urban Di community.

Ottawa is an ok place - quite scenic, and small-town enough that though not everybody knows each other, there is almost always two or less degrees of separation between everybody.
