i have been reading so much internet news. it's nice, if depressing. i feel more real and present as a citizen than i do at school, i think.

maybe i will do some research on what i can do to get involved while i'm in DC for the summer. mish, you interested?
spent the day with aviva today. yesterday, we went to visit my uncle, who i hadn't seen since he had a stroke. wednesday, my grandmother and i are going to visit her cousins, who also haven't been well. home time is full of family, because i don't have any friends here- the closest i get is friends on loan from my sister. not that family time is a bad thing.
i'm making a whitney third mix. at present, it is mostly full of music off guitar hero, but there's other stuff on there. i'm still looking to add buckethead (one of the ones from 100 things to do in a bathtub, if i can track them down) and the ghost riding song, again if i can find it. we shall see.
also i am intending to write thank-you notes to all of my professors from this year, but i don't particularly want to write to my CS professors. advice?
OH GOD i've pretty much decided to get my next tattoo next semester. i'm so fucking excited, but it's also making me nervous. do i really want people craning to read a circle of text on my forearm for the rest of my life? sources say yes, but, like i said, nervous.
the disconnected rambling, it has to stop. also very shortly veracity will yell at me to plug her in. oh god the ADD, for serious?
i love, i love, i love
