I'm drinking some truly vile tea right now. I've really only forced it down by adding an obscene amount of honey, even though that mostly just made it more sludge-like. Go figure; the "throat-soothing" variety of Celestial Seasonings is the most horrible one.
In other words, I'm experiencing sympathy pain for Kelly and Katie, which manifested itself after I spent over an hour talking on the phone with Courtney, Katie, Rekha, and my grandparents. I really hope it's the excessive amounts of talking and not actual sickness that's plaguing me.
I devised a clever and deadly plot to overtake the enemy king, and almost beat the Media Lab mac at chess today. Unfortunately, I had to sacrifice half of my pieces in the process, and when his knight foiled my plan, the machine triumphed once more. But I've probably already complained to you about that.
Meaghan's home. Three cheers for Meaghan!
I'm turning 18 next Sunday. Scary! I've just started rereading The Lord of the Rings trilogy, and I finished the first part I love, where Tolkien describes the lifestyle of the hobbits, and how on birthdays it is customary for the celebrant to give gifts to all his guests. And how, since there is at least one birthday in the hobbit land every day of the year, everyone is bound to get at least one present every week.
Good system.
no, really, it's over.
