Today was a good day. I got Lisa and Laura's package! A bunch of new additions to my postcard/picture wall--I should have been expecting something Baby Shrek, but you caught me by surprise, so fair played to you. I'll definitely have to stare at the "suicide stick" for while before I can psych myself out enough to try it. And a new journal! Perfect timing--I'm going to need a new one pretty soon. Thank you so much! I love you guys. It was just what I needed right now. Tia Lisa has really pretty handwriting by the way.
I walked down to south campus to get out of the cave of my room. It was pretty nice today--no rain, not very cold, and there are people here again so that's comforting. You could hear someone playing the organ in St. Pat's. I still haven't been in there. I didn't even know there was an organ in there. I had to come back and at least think about studying a bit. It's going to be a really quick exam tomorrow--one hour writing one essay. I'll be happy when it's over. For a few minutes away, then it'll be due time to start freaking out and cramming for Poetry.
I started another book today. Ladder of Years by Anne Tyler. I've this one and then one other novel from the last twenty years, and then I guess I'll be back to the classics. Shouldn't be long.
Glad to hear that you finally got the package AND that you were surprised to find mementos from your green cousin inside! :-) The suicide stick sounds a lot worse that it actually is. Just cut off bite size pieces, if I can do it, YOU can do it! Do you need an escort?? We love you too!! XoXo
ReplyDeleteP.S. Tia Lisa REALLY liked the compliment on her handwriting...she let it go straight to her head! Whatev. LOL.
