2.5.07

TRIAGE: profgrrrrl-style:

By Saturday at 5:00 pm I need to:

*finish my philosophy of international law paper ("Grotius, Slavery, and the Problem of Contrary Practice in CIL")
*meet with my advisor about my prospectus
*attend both days of the Sovereignty Working Group's conference
*proctor the final for Con Law (7:00-10:00 pm Thursday)
*plan and make something for my friends' picnic on Friday night
*go to picnic
*grade finals

...so if I'm not around much, that's why

Thursday evening update:
*Full draft of the paper, above the minimum length requirement. The rest is just details.
*Meeting with advisor next week, but I was told that the proposal looks good, so there's not likely to be a need for major revisions, he said, counting his eggs before they hatched
*One day down, one to go
*In medias res, as they say. I was reminded of a SAT-prep textbook I read that noted 'proctor' and 'proctologist' have the same Greek root. I'm not sure exactly what to make of that.
*No idea, and the other people going don't seem to have a good idea what they're bringing. For all the other shortcomings of relationships, that's one advantage they have: one person or the other always has an idea of what to make, and the time to make it.
*N/A, yet
*...we'll take a look at some tonight and go from there
