seagulls, passover, and a busy thursday
HAPPY BIRTHDAY slythwitch!!!!!!!
Anyone want to sublet my place in Waltham over the summer? pleeeeease? or have (trustworthy) friends who do?
the seagull feeding went well, despite there being no seagulls. we fed ducks and a swan instead, and were talked at by some lady who must have put half a loaf of bread into the water for them.
(they liked my kosher crisps and Diarmaid's chocolate covered digestives better. always went for those first.)
passover ends tomorrow night. It's been a good one for me. i've had to explain myself to people again, which always gives me new meaning and insight -- especially with the questions some of the people here asked. I held my own seder, which made me feel both grown-up and secure in my religion. And keeping Pesach all by myself.. well, it wasn't hard, because I bought the food I wanted beforehand and, helpfully, had just enough to last me all the way through. Did have the one requisite chametz dream, though, except this time Mom told me it hadn't had more than 18 minutes to rise, so it was okay. But it totally wasn't. Anyway, it was just a dream.
I've missed beer a lot.
Tomorrow morning I wake up early, go shopping, come back and print Bettina's pragmatics assignment, go to pragmatics 1, cook, have session, go to viking archaeology class, have more session?, pragmatics 2, Irish, and then I'm goin' out to break Pesach with Ash. Woohoo!
Tonight: Finish Bettina's pragmatics assignment and write up questions for the IRB to review tomorrow.
Holy shit.
