I had never been to the relatively new (December, 2008) Grammy Museum in Downtown L.A. until Monday night. I went to see Nanci Griffith speaking about the making of her new album, The Loving Kind.

Paper Update: 3/4 done! I have to finish it up today, then crack on editing this one and the other one that is due, format them correctly, make cover sheets, yadda yadda, to turn in tomorrow. Then my semester of Psych 710: Special Topics in Human Factors/Ergonomics (Warnings in Products Liability) will be through. Richard and I are heading to Ocean Isle, NC, next weekend for a little break. Hooray
