Monday:
I had class, Second Language Acquisition. It's become my favorite class, because it entails discussing how the brain works and how people learn foreign languages. It's awesome. After class I had dinner with Bethany, her mom and brother, Eric, Casey, and Valerie. I love Mugshots hamburgers.
Tuesday:
History at 11. I have a hard time dragging myself to class sometimes, mainly because it is always so nice outside when class starts. Also because the entire building has this history-major stink about it that I don't understand. It smells like old shoes and sexual frustration in there. I also don't like going to class because it reminds me I need to start thinking about working on that 20-page paper...
The rest of the day was nice. I got to sit out in the sun and read.
Then I had yoga and hung out with Matt.
Wednesday:
Tutoring hours from 1-3, but noone ever shows up...I sat outside reading from 3-4:30...Then I had class from 5:30 until 8:30. Wednesday shouldn't be very tiring, but it usually is...
Thursday:
I had class at 11, tutoring hours at 1, then when school was over, I went home and packed. I headed up to Birmingham to hang out with Eric and Ickna. We spent Thursday night hanging out at Ickna's and chatting. It was quite intellectually stimulating...
Friday:
I spent all day hanging out with Ickna. I did have an appointment at 2 at the vaccine clinic...$50 just to have nurses smile at me and have a little blood drawn. I will be quite sad when the program is over...
Ickna and I spent another quiet night in watching movies and playing with his brother's evil cat. It likes to lick my nose while I am asleep and bite my hands while I am awake. Eric laughs at me because I want a "purse-bitch" dog, but I say they have all the advantages of a cat (small size, cuddliness) while having none of the disadvantages (not being evil, not sticking its ass in my face while I am trying to read). I figure if I got a dog it wouldn't technically be a purse-bitch if it's a scrappy little mixed-breed...
Saturday:
I drove back to Tuscaloosa, and spent the afternoon napping. Adam, Lauren, and I went out for Thai food, and it was as delicious as always.
Then I went out with Matt, Jacob, and Juli to see a rather good local band play. David, Angela, and a whole lot of their friends were there, the music was good, and there was beer, so I had a really good evening.
Sunday:
I woke up at noon and got to eat delicious Lauren O. food for lunch. Then I went by the quad to play in the drum circle for a tiny bit, got some groceries, met Matt and Juli by the river, then went to the German House to hang out with them for a bit.
All I've done with my evening is eat leftover Thai food, read some of the dense boringness assigned for history, and clean my room a bit. I also listened to the newest Infected Mushroom cd (again), because it is awesome. Every new bit of psytrance Ickna has me listen to makes me want to leave the states more and more. Europe, South America, and Israel have it good...
This isn't the latest album, but it is also very good.
I want to convince the people at the college station that Tuscaloosa needs an hour of psytrance a week...I know the new station manager, maybe I could swing it...
--Tennessee balks at honoring Justin Timberlake. Republican congresspeople in the state of Tennessee think his song titles are too risque...But surely that's no reason to deny him honor from his home state, is it? I mean, he's so pretty...
--Map proves Portuguese discovered Australia. Good for them. Too bad they didn't capitalize on it, because then there would be a tropical paradise populated by the descendants Portuguese criminals instead of British ones...
--Clutter and mess trump neat and clean. I've been saying it for years, if it's your mess you know exactly where everything is.
--Riches await as Earth's icy north melts. So, the ice caps are melting due to our environmental exploitation, and the first thing we're going to do when they're gone is move right in and start exploiting some more? We're such smart, smart monkeys.
