Floating between the mid 95s and 97.0... anywhere at all seems to apply, lately. Today I was 96.6. Not that it really matters, as long as I don't start going 97+ again. I was at 99.2 one day... last week? (I had started to eat a bit more) and after 2 or 3 days it just scared the fucking hell out of me. A day of eating nothing solid and I was magically back down to 97.2. So, obviously, 99.2 wasn't even a real weight... just fluid/food/stool weight. But still.

I just cannot handle non-double digits right now. I'll eat, or not eat, as I see fit... and lose, or not "bother" to lose, weight as I see fit. At the current moment I'm basically in weight loss mode, but for the last two days I wasn't. It doesn't matter, any of it, as long as I don't encroach my self-stated physical limits, and as long as what I eat doesn't make me freak out. As long as those two things don't happen we're all good.

School starts tomorrow, but I don't actually have my first lecture till Thursday. I decided to take one on-campus course (Aboriginal Languages of Eastern Canada, a Linguistics course) and one distance course (Business 1000). I figure Business 1000 will likely be a stupidly easy course, for the most part, so taking it distance should be fine. As for the Linguistics course, well, I'm really interested in the subject matter, as I have aboriginal ancestry (very far back) and I've always loved languages, plus linguistics is also something that interests me. I've always though I'd be good at linguistics. Plus linguistics is another "social science" credit, and I need at least four courses in at least two separate social sciences for my degree. I already have, or will be getting, three sociology courses, so this linguistics one will be perfect for the 4th.

I dunno. Mentally, for some reason, I just feel good enough to take on two instead of one right now. I also REALLY feel like I want at least a small amount of time on campus, which business by distance didn't give me, but I am interested in seeing what business is all about, so I don't just want to drop that course. I really, honestly think I can handle two, if I can keep myself out of an extended hospitalization and/or residential place till mid December. I guess we'll see if that part is going to be rationally feasible.
