A graduate student who is also a friend defended successfully on Monday, and helped me out by putting together the prize bags for the MiniFair this Saturday.

I had lunch with a friend I haven’t seen for a few months.

I was able to encourage a student working on a project write-up (but struggling with writing) that he is doing a good job.

I invited the dean to attend a student’s presentation. He couldn’t come, but he’s also worked extensively with this student, and I hope he was glad to be asked.

I ordered a new refrigerator. I will have it next week.

I stopped and wrote some good things down here today.

I wrote in my journal today, after a long absence.
