Another deadline, another late-night surprise post. 29 October 2008 10:44 pm
Posted by Tracy in : friends,news,school,silly , trackbackGreetings from the eighth floor reading room at Bobst Library, NYU, home of a spectacular view of the Empire State Building (and me without my camera to prove it). I just emailed in my writing assignment for the week: a mushy memoir piece about my last trip to the Eugene Saturday Market. At 1400 words, it’s too long (the assignment was for 750 to 1000) but after two attempts that barely broke 500, that’s a nice change. I can always cut it down, and maybe the finished product will make a nice TracyFood post someday. In the meantime, please tune in tomorrow for another not-so-little something I finished for class two weeks ago, not with mushiness, but with snark.
In other news:
This year’s Halloween tricks and treats may include our apartment’s finally getting hooked up to the Internet. Turns out TimeWarner thinks our building number is “building number – building number + 2″ and they have no way of looking that up. Peter had to ask to see a neighbor’s cable bill. I am not even making this up.
That paper I was complaining about last week? About my attempts to locate Nepali food in NYC? Was totally well-received, to my everlasting relief. Now I can move on to freaking out about the research paper!
Finally, Penny’s moving in on Sunday for reals! PARTY!
Okay, down to 20 minutes of laptop battery life — I’m really going home now.
