AM READING BOOK OF LOST TALES by JRR TOLKIEN
i've got to get more obsessed with Lord of the Rings. i need to start memorizing names fast . . . darn! i only know one name for Manwe and Aule and Tulkas, and i keep forgetting who Yvanna's younger sister is.
I NEED TO START READING AGAIN
. . .
6, new record, different place but the same means, not bad. one was too deep. i needed to clean it up a bit, but it's OK. didn't even sting.
Last friday, House Meeting period:
we were asked to name our greatest fear. most were afraid of death, or the death of a loved one. really? whatever for? death is inevitable, dying now would only save you the trouble of dying later.
i don't like flowers. who'd want someone who liked them to give them something dead?
i don't feel anything. it's a relief, of sorts.
. . .
i wrestled my brother today.
His first reaction, since he was frustrated, was to cry. Cry? why cry? how could you stay mad at someone who just CRIED? i couldn't. i've got a weak spot for my brother, and another one for tears. or even the tiniest hint of tears.
it wasn't as though he was pathetic, just, it made me think.
