MY SUBMISSION WAS ACCEPTED TO TAYLOR UNIVERSITY'S UNDERGRADUATE CONFERENCE ON LIT & WRITING!

i am at home, in my blessed basement, at peace, and sneezing. a lot. because i think i'm getting sick. again. goddamn it.

I'M WRITING A BOOK! AND THE COLLEGE IS PUBLISHING IT!! ACH!!!

this has been the most productive day of my life. the only day that will be more productive in the future is the day i give birth, whenever that is.

how come every time you come around
my london london bridge wanna go down?

i mean, really? why is that?

i have the worst cold ever. it is so disgusting. i should go home and sleep and watch documentaries until i am all healed up.

nothing is resolved.

ok, i admit -- i have a crush on this rainy city. now i just have to find a way to make it work. it just seems too simple. it's only october! i thought i'd need months of agonizing before i reached this point.

i am visiting IU Bloomington. this place is scary as hell. i'm used to my little baby college. i can't wrap my mind around this place.

1. the feeling i had after i sent off that gloriously bitchy email
2. ann hostetler blowing me a kiss (!?)
3. watching my sister laugh
4. the fall weather
5. banjo music
