I made up for the four hours of sleep I got yesterday by sleeping twelve last night. I feel far better, save for a slight headache.
Unfortunately, this means I missed the opportunity to go do volunteer work for the school. Um.
I'm starting to feel more comfortable here. My suitemates are now referring to me as "Marika" instead of "that other girl," and we're discussing bathroom-cleaning schedules and decoration, etc. Also, I'm going to go into Fremont today to buy a toothbrush that's less than five years old.
So it's not home yet, but it's like a hotel room in a really odd city, or something. And Mom should've brought my bike today, so I could go down to the U district on the Burke-Gilman if I wanted. And I do. Maybe that'll be my thing for tomorrow.
In other news, it's vaguely unsettling to look down at my tattoo and realize that it's darker than when I went to bed last night. Body temperature probably pushes the ink closer to the surface or something.
