Uhmmm... yeah. So I was in the bathroom a few minutes ago and happened to glance in the mirror to notice something black in my left ear. Upon closer inspection it was a dead bug. I don't know how it got there and it is unclear how long I've been carrying it around, but: Ewww....

(Untitled)
During my walk to school at 9:30am, I decided that this is the hopeful season of cold and hopeful morning toes.

Buuuuut, I decided that the pictures would look more impressive if I conformed and bought the whole costume. And considering how much I've ( Read more... ) -
Emergence.
Every time I ride over the Willamette on my way to or from campus I see a little more green filling in the space between the skeletal branches of the trees and immediately start grinning like a lunatic ( Read more... ) -
Asi es.
So that's that for The Russian. He came over tonight, almost a week since my full-fledged verbal attack last Monday. In between then and now I had gradually come to peace with the situation, little by little. Meeting new people in my classes, seeing spring come almost fully into bloom, learning a new way to make mashed potatoes on the Food ( Read more... )
