It&#8217;s a pretty involved project, and although I got an early start on it, it looks like I&#8217;ll need all the time allotted to get it finished and turned in.  Like a goldfish that grows to the size of the bowl, my papers and assignments seem to expand in size right up to the deadline.  Ick.<\/p>\n<p>My knee has stopped swelling, and a visit to the doctor today was encouraging.  There is still a noticeable bulge under the knee, but the doctor thinks it will go down as soon as long as I keep icing it down and don&#8217;t exercise it.  I didn&#8217;t tell him that I&#8217;ve been doing some light yoga and sit ups in the mornings &#8211; no need to provoke him.<\/p>\n<p>While I was walking around town running some errands it started snowing &#8211; the first snow that I&#8217;ve seen so far this season.  Kuniko is used to it &#8211; her school is up in the mountains and they get snow a lot.  There wasn&#8217;t enough to collect on the ground, just enough to blow around and look dramatic.<\/p>\n<p>This weekend I&#8217;ll be working on my project, as well as sneaking off to a seminar on job searching for teachers in Japan.  The seminar is in Osaka, so I may or may not meet Kuniko after work and go together.  I&#8217;m not sure she&#8217;s so interested in a trek out in the cold, but that might be the highlight of Saturday and maybe we could grab some dinner while we&#8217;re out there.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I spent the morning today working on a test package that is part of my assignment for one of my classes.
