My eyeballs hurt
Yesterday I was tired because I didn't sleep the night before. Today I'm tired because I did, and my body's going, "That was sleep? I remember that! I'd like to do some more of that." Sorry, body, not until after minitrial.
Yesterday evening I decided to go take a walk on the Bear Trail to take a break and reset my brain, in spite of - because of - the fact that it was pouring rain outside. I changed into clothing that would dry/not get ruined, and headed out to get wet. I succeeded very well; I came back absolutely sopping wet, my exercise clothes are still hanging in the bathroom to dry.
So it's pictures pictures time! Beware, for they are Many, although they're higher quality than my usual ones, because I was able to use stardustshine's Nifty camera instead of my crappy crappy one. Spring break pictures 1 (mostly Museum of American Art) and pictures 2 (the zoo and National Cathedral), the rest to come later.
