Random-ness and Julius Caesar
There is SO much construction on campus, it's crazy. The whole Prince area is being torn up, but they haven't actually demolished the building yet. This means that I can't walk directly through to main campus from the forty, which sucks. They are also sprucing up the food court eating area in downstairs Mallinckrodt, which doesn't make sense, since they are going to put the food court in the new University Center in another couple years . . . Crazy Wash U. And construction on the Sam Fox thing continues as ever.
The phone in the other single in my suite keeps ringing. I feel like the guy in the "Shaniqua" song, except I can't answer it because the damn door is locked. It rings at least two times a day. Very frustrating.
Work is boring. I spent the entire day watching water dropplets evaporate and pulling out my hair because the water isn't behaving as it should.
I went to the production of Julius Caesar at the Shakespeare Festival theatre in Forest Park tonight. It was free, which is always nice, but I still made a donation. The theatre is the kind where people bring blankets and chairs and you sit outside on a hill. They had small performances and jugglers before the actual show started. It's a very nice thing for kids, and we had fun. We = me, Brittany (who organized it), Lara, Sarah, and Brittany's summer roommate. We had a picnic before it started. The actual show was pretty boring, and I kept getting distracted by how cold it was (I didn't realize it would fall below 70 degrees, and I didn't have a jacket or anything [I eventually found a blanket though]) and then I thought there was a bug in my pants, but it was just me being paranoid. The actors were very good, there just isn't much action in that play. After the show, which ended about 11, the four of us (not Brittany's roommate) went to Schnucks and bought s'mores stuff and then drove to Sarah's house to roast them over her fire pit. She lives in a very woodsy neighborhood, and it was nice to sit outside, be warmed by the fire, inhale that woodsy/smoky smell, and relax.
I feel good because tomorrow I won't set my alarm. I'm going to sleep until I'm no longer tired. This is really exciting because I hardly ever do that. I just don't have much to do around here, so why not sleep and why get up early?
