Yesterday was interesting...
I woke up at nine, despite the fact that I forgot to set my alarm, which was rather impressive. I seem to be sleeping a little bit better now. Perhaps because I've stopped worrying about sleeping as much as I normally do. I don't know. Anyway. Glen took me grocery shopping at ten, and then waited patiently for me to put everything away and get ready for class so he could drive me to school.
I got to school half an hour before my class started. So I decided to go into the IKG exhibit and see the Richard Boulet pieces. I admit, I've never had such an interesting gut reaction to art before. The work was incredible, but I thought I was going to throw up. It was just so overwhelming. It was too much. I don't know. I almost want to go see the show again in order to get a second impression, one that will make more sense.
Perhaps it was just a badly-timed anxiety attack. Who knows. What's the weirdest reaction you ever had to art? Who was it by?
I got through English class somehow. I don't remember what I wrote on the quiz, but hopefully it somewhat resembled a correct answer. Then I went home and hid for the rest of the day. Today I have to go out and do all of the errands I was supposed to do yesterday, but didn't because I couldn't remember how to deal with people and anyway it seemed like too much effort. I am sorry I missed Lacy's party, because it sounded like it was fun times. I think I would have just hid in a corner and knit or something, though.
Today, halfway through my conversation with my dad, the cat started screaming. Dad was rather disturbed. Apparently he's never heard her do that before. There was another cat - of course - outside, actually pressing its face into the window where Jasmine was sitting. Stupid creature. I put on my boots and chased it out of the yard (probably much to my dad's amusement, I'm sure), and then comforted Jasmine. She's set herself up by the window where it happened. I wonder if she's keeping watch to see if the other cat will dare to come back.
I really, really want to see the Watchmen movie when it comes out. Anyone want to come with?
