cornerofmadness: (WTF by Nikoicons)
Unbelievable as it is to me, today was the last day of class. I think the handful of anatomy students that showed up for the optional lecture on nutrition were more interest in this than ANYTHING i've lectured on that actually counts. Of course we still have the whirling dervishes of 'what can I do to pass?' and oddly enough one student who blew off both exams this week who's been calling me and telling me why except today, the last day where I now enter zeros for those exams.

And on a personal non-school related note, I'm losing it big time. ALL of the stuff I typed up for one of my novels during Nano is GONE. I mean GONE. Now, this isn't a matter of forgetting to save once. I worked on that for weeks. Unless I saved it away from the novel (possible so not to taint the word count since I was working on an established novel that I didn't want to count the words for), and I can't find that file, it's gone. This leads me to ask HOW? Where do old files go when they suddenly disappear off the hard drive? I was going to check at work since I might have had it there but today was so busy i forgot. SOB.

Sometimes I must do, buy candy. My new pill is helping with my blood sugar but this is twice this week along, it's dropped it so low that it could have been fatal without sugar on hand (diabetes is lovely isn't it). I'm still shaking from the effects. Sigh. Damned if I do, damned if I don't. Luckily i have strawberries and dark chocolate on hand.

Luckily I found the bulk of my missing novel in a folder that I took home for Christmas. Dont know where it went off the main story but at least I got nearly 10K of words back. And I started rereading my second Nano novel so I could do these original fic prompts and you know what, for something written that fast, it's NOT that bad (I had no idea I had made it to 9 chapters) Sometimes I go back and reread and think god, that was crap. But on rare occasions I go back and read and say, you know what I'd buy this if I read a blurb. Or maybe that's just my Hubris talking
