dude, what's going on?!?!

so i gave my lie groups talk without too much of a hitch... i was nervous so i talked the whole time through without pauses for questions until the end (eric's comment "dude, good job, that's the way to go!"... but it was slightly disconcerting that leigh was sitting there shaking her head no the whole time... everyone else seemed to follow fine and the prof had no major addendums or changes to spring on me partway through, so that's done.

just heard from john that the algebra problems that are ruining everyone's week are actually due on tuesday now so we can study... too bad i'll be pizza seminar planning all afternoon instead....

also, just got an IM from the mother:
mom: have you talked to Ry since yesterday? Daddy said someone came to the gate while he was doing chores and asked about buying some of our land. Then yesterday afternoon he got a call at work to see if he was interested in a job at the Cleveland Botanic Garden... we'll be getting together and sending his resume tonight or tomorrow...then we shall see what develops

i was already bugged out that brother was moving into the room that's been mine for the past 15 years... now maybe the house goes away too? dude, i'm gonna freak out if this happens relatively quickly!

ok, lunchtime... not spazzing for 30 minutes, then back to work.
