Thursday, September 19

In 25 minutes, I'll go to Kohlberg for the second weekly scrabble session, and then I have my radio show at midnight, and at some point I have a French composition to write. I'm in Underhill listening to Gerry Levinson's 2nd Symphony now, and having some difficulty with it. It seems on first listen, to be pretty indistinct. Sometimes I don't know about contemporary music.

I accomplished some things today: I took a quiz (in JVB's section, because I slept through part of Carole's), completed most of Andrew's Phoenix crossword, vented quietly about them replacing my title with something stupid again, before i decided it was okay; went to the hardware store to buy some nuts and washers for my bed, and some adhesive cord clips which worked beautifully for hanging up my string blue lights - the only problem is that when i was trying to screw in one of the bulbs which was having problems, the entire string went out. i hope it's not dead now. I also found out some (bad but not terrible) information about things like passports.

they had thai bar at sharples. at this rate they'll be having japanese next week. (i miss caribbean though, hope that comes around soon.) i'm mostly done with rebecca's letter; it's three and a half pages so far. yeah, so that's today. not super-exciting. i have my work cut out for me this weekend: hopefully i can finish the d+s reading in the next two days and have sunday and tuesday to write my seminar paper.

i'll come back later and write about yesterday, which was a good day.

if you want to talk to her
just go up and talk to her
she won't mind
