like the weather
it's thundering in seattle. that so seldom happens. we've had some pretty good wind and rain up here in fremont, too.
makes me nostalgic for michigan. my dad used to call really good thunderstorms "bedspring rattlers."
thunderstorms always make me feel small and contemplative.
now i'm off to campus for a teaching workshop i signed up for. it's on how to do effective group work in the classroom. should be interesting.
i also have to pick up my macbook from the UW computer store, where i dropped it off to be repaired yesterday after lunch. they replaced the keyboard cover under the warranty--it chipped and developed a weird little crack right where my right wrist rests while i'm typing. it's not a huge chip, but it does irritate my inner wrist. the guy said he's seen a lot of macbooks crack in that exact spot. anyway, mine is still under warranty, and i also purchased the applecare extended warranty, so it's 100% covered. the guy told me it would be a few days, but they ended up having the part in stock so it's already done. yay!
(no RWP this week. maybe next.)
