I had a conversation with a lamp today.............
Last night was a whole bunch of shit. I was in the mood to write, but as usual the fact that I'm in the mood does not mean that anything will get put down on paper. I wrote a poem. But I don't know if I like it and it reeks almost undesirably of Horace.....but I don't know! I just don't know anymore! I feel like I've forgotten how to write because it seems I used to do it so easily and things would just come to me out of the blue....but now I have to search for them!
Anyway. I took a nap at eight last night with the intent of just going to bed....but I woke up at 11:30 and got on the computer and talked to some people and then went back to bed. But I didn't sleep all night. At the same time, I managed to get up at 10, which is the earliest I've gotten up in a long time. I hope this means that I am regaining all the sleep I lost while I was still in school.....but probably not.
Today I sat and read The Jungle all day and I am almost done. Then I get to read All Is Quiet on the Western Front! Superb.
I talked to a lamp today while I was making lunch. It was sad.
Went to Victoria Station tonight and saw Branden and his significant other and we read the Book of Knowledge (the index to an encyclopedia published in 1957). Then Caitlin and Noelle showed up and after Branden and Megan left we had an intense discussion about society and its ups and downs.....mostly its downs.
My mother came and picked me up before I would have liked to leave....but that's how it goes, I guess.
I have to celebrate our country's birth tomorrow.........
I get to have breakfast at the Collins' in the morning. Well, I don't have to go, but they invited us and I would feel like a jerk if I didn't go. Even though it's always really awkward going over there since Peter and I are no longer as good of friends as we once were. We have absolutely nothing in common these days. And I just never know what to say when I'm over there, so I say nothing at all, which can make things more awkward. Plus, my mother always brings up my classes or something of that sort and it's just like, "Mom.....I don't want to discuss myself, please!"
Whatever.
Maybe I will just sleep in and say I was too tired to go.
plffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffft.
