i spent some four hours today watching people play pool.

took the GRE today-- got 650 verbal, 710 math, won't know about the written portions for 4-6 weeks (took it by computer so i found out about the objectively scored portions immediately, which was nice ( Read more... )

okay, so i'm definitely not hallucinating. remember a couple of days ago when i thought i hallucincated there was a mouse in my room? definitely a real thing, i have witnesses, it was in lil kim's room and a bunch of us were chasing it trying to catch this little baby mouse and security went and got a mouse trap which is now set to catch the mouse ( Read more... )

this has been such a good day (for the first time in a long time)-- among other things, i now have a ride home with maryam, which is awesome-- she and her boyfriend are going to chicago and will drop me on the way! wee! a bit of a detour for them, so very nice.

oh man, i slept for like 12 hours last night and i feel SO much better now-- yes, i missed folk and blues, but there is another night of it tonight, which i shall not.

and now to go try to eat some solid food.
