So.
Jimmy (roommate) had another nightmare last night. Every once in a while he wakes up at an obscene hour, literally, screaming at the top of his lungs. He doesn't stop until I scream his name over and over again to snap him out of it. It's really annoying when it happens.
A lot of crazy shit happened over halloween. I go to an old Jesuit school so there are a lot of rumors about exorcisms that were performed up in the towers of some of the older buildings. In particular, the western tower on the fifth floor of the major academic building is where they supposedly took place. A bunch of people from my dorm found the entrance and you can see how the staircase has been completely sealed off with a sort of plaster wall. Anyway, for the past three days people have been trying to get into the tower left and right. A bunch of kids got into a different part of the building and wound up in the attic next to the exorcism room. They found only a chair and and upside down cross with strange writing on it.
Now I personally believe almost all of the exorcism stuff to be pure bullshit, but my friend Jess took several pictures with her digital camera. When the pictures were put up on her computer, the cross was emitting kind of an orange glow. However, it was apparent in multiple pictures and was definitely did not come from the flashlight or another source of light. Last night a couple of my friends went back and reportedly heard a voice in the room. A lot of people didn't believe them, but you could tell they had been legitimately frightened. Anyway, I don't know why I feel the need to share this as it is exceptionally ridiculous. However, I am sitting here between classes with nothing to do and it was the first thing that came to mind. After Jimmy's midnight antics that is.
BUT MUCH MORE IMPORTANTLY I dressed up as a flip-flop for halloween and won my dorm's costume contest.
My mother lost my absentee ballot so I am going on an EIGHT HOUR road trip all over southern new england this afternoon, during which I will travel through four cities. For about 2 minutes I will be at the company two fire station. We are calling the trip "The Three Vote Tour." I think it's quite catchy. We will have one vote for Bush and two for Kerry.
I have a pet fish. His name is Bubba. Everyone thinks he is going to die within the next month. I think he will too. He is producing lots of bubbles which is a bit disconcerting. The kid across the hall told me he wants to mate. Everyone else thinks he is trying to drown himself in air.
I am skipping class for the first time this afternoon.
Vote or die.
