I can hear the rain falling outside. I walked downstairs and by the courtyard door and could see the slick pavement and smell the freshness that means it rained. And I didn't even hear it, which makes it better because it's like a nice surprise. A surprise made even nicer by the fact that the radiators are once again working and I can no longer see puffs of breath as I walk around the house. Who knew I would be so happy to hear that awful, radiator clanking once again echoing through my little room?
I've been writing a paper, so I'm in writing mode right now. I've written four fairly decent pages in about five hours, so I'm happy. The final draft isn't even due until next Thursday, so by then the paper should be flawless.
My tummy is making growling noises at me. There's a half-eaten bowl of the snack that was served tonight, but it's a tad inedible. It's this apple/sugar crisp type of thing but it's either too sugary or too salty. I can't really tell. There's also a banana sitting on my coffee table, but it banged around in my purse all day (I was going to eat it for breakfast) and now has stripes and spots that make it look unappealing. I think that sleep will be a good remedy for my hunger as well as my tiredness. My eyes are getting that burning feeling around the edges and my ass is almost asleep from sitting on the same corner of the couch for hours while writing my paper. I took a brief break to tidy the laundry room, but that's it.
Pearl's spending the night in our room tonight, which is nice. It's like a sleepover... well, it is a sleepover. She's online right now, and, like me, did not accomplish the amount of work she set out to do tonight. It's technically Thursday now, though, and that means the start of the weekend, and the end of Tonya doing any work for at least 2 days, probably 3.
Goodnight all, and thanks to Ashley for your Sigur Ros album that I downloaded tonight, and to Forrest for your "Quiet Music" playlist that was perfect for reading and paper writing.
