*STOP*

I'm a little intimidated by how sleek Leopard is. Seriously. Nothing looks the same; everything has taken on this new sheen. It's very impressive. Some days I even think that I'm using a new laptop.

The past few days have been a whirlwind of moving. I'm typing this in my third living space in two weeks. First I was crashing at a friend's basement in Brooklyn; then it was the living room of another friend's apartment in Chinatown; now I'm in the office of a third friend, located in the East Village just opposite where my main school building is. All this moving has really taught me what is essential to me: my laptop and a working Internet connection. And that's really about it.

In other news, I've stopped writing the application for the fellowship. It's not happening, I don't think. I've been trying to write my way into the story for some time now, and I think at this point I just need to give it some time and distance. That being said, I've made headway in the first of two short stories I'll need for the Clarion workshop, so this holiday has not been completely unproductive.

What else, what else...

Not much else to add, really. I'm moving back to my apartment tomorrow, which is good. And hopefully as the days pass more and more people will start coming back, and I'll be able to meet up with some people before school starts up again.
