Aargh.
I am officially done with my short story and I don't hate it. Lauren, if you're reading this and you got my message and are worried at all, don't be. It turned out very well. You are still my muse and sounding board and I miss our long and involved conversations about literature. Are you home over spring break?
Um, anyway, I've still got two midterms this week but now they don't look so terrible. I've been working as hard as I really can this weekend and getting things done surprisingly well despite my fears that the wouldn't ever be completed. I also managed to get a sunburn on about two inches of my lower back between the bottom of my t-shirt and the top of my shorts (it was warm and sunny on Saturday so Rebecca and I laid outside on towels and read, and I put on sunscreen but I didn't realize the t-shirt was that short). Every time I get a sunburn I realize how humiliating and undignified they are. You can't look serious at all when you're sunburnt. Thankfully this one's easily hidden, and it'll remind me not to go outside without thorough sunscreening in the future.
I should be going to sleep but I won't feel tired for another hour...unfortunately that means that when I have to wake up at 8AM tomorrow it'll be like waking up at 7AM instead. I hate the way this time change thing works, I much prefer the fall when we gain an hour.
I think I'm going to go read a young adult book now that deals with cross-dressing, Shakespeare, and pirates. Let the fun ensue!
