I love my MOM!

I took some reading to the bathroom, strangely enough as one does, thinking I was going to be there awhile (I'll save ya the details, but hey! doesn't everybody?? :) )

In any event, I took out the Ethics book that I'm borrowing from my friend B, turning almost immediately to chapter 4, value, The Quest of the Good. I turned a few pages, skimming ( Read more... )

Yay, I'm at the rec. An hour and a half of swimming, boy do I feel like a *pro*.

Now I'm off to Highland to get some study in. Today I lucked out in taking my *make-up* midterm for my Poli class. Prof won't be in this afternoon, so I'm taking it tomorrow. Tomorrow, yes indeed, I'm going to ace it!

wake up, sunshine bright--sky
blue and blue rumble me

Sleepy hollow gathered in vain
my ears still hearing
whirl, get up--wind shouting

ticking, ticking--kick me
now!

... already... 25.. .years... ... old!

man, amazing. I never thought I'd reach 25. Then again, back then felt like far away.

Now..? Damn. I thought I'd be teaching already. I even thought I'd be married already (when I was YOUNGER of course!! )

Crazy things pop in your head... but for now, sleep await!! ;)
