Oh the gloriousness of waking up at 11 a.m. I have missed it. Thankfully I didn't have as much difficulty sleeping last night as I thought I might. It's strange to suddenly have a room to myself again. Then there's the fact that I slept through most of the train ride. That's just under four hours of being mostly unconscious, but I dropped off ( Read more... )

I have a week off in less than a month. I want to see people. I'm taking the train up to Tacoma with a couple dormmates on the twelfth. And I want to see people ( Read more... )

I started reading the Iliad about a week and a half ago. Then I started reading Deathly Hallows, too. I'm still in the Iliad's introduction. I finished reading DH in two days. Go figure. I think I'll have to do a fairer compare/contrast once I've finally finished the book I actually have to read, but honestly - the guy who translated this copy, ( Read more... )

In general, life has been good. Found a cockroach in my room this morning. Little one. Crawled out from under my bed. So much for roach traps that only seem to attract Ivans. Ivans like roach traps. Thankfully the traps were really, really old, or I'd fear for the health of Ivans everywhere. Speaking of Ivans . . .
