Leah says I should post. How gratifying to know that someone misses me when I'm gone.
I've been slack for three reasons:
-Joy and Daphne were here, and then they left and Molly and Emily came, so I've been all busy visiting with actual people.
-It's cold in my room, as previously mentioned, and I don't like being here for long.
-The things that are most on my mind at this time are not things I feel like putting on public display.
It's interesting, actually... I used to feel that my experiences were somehow incomplete unless I had talked to someone about them. Somehow, the space inside my head was not sufficient, I had to air and share anything important to me. Now... it is not that way.
My little fish died on Wednesday. I'd seen on Sunday that she bore all the symptoms of dropsy, a common and fatal betta disease, and knew her days were numbered. It will be strange not to be carrying her back to school with me and worrying constantly about her well-being.
I've been having a lot of fun but am really too busy to write about it now. Also my head feels very stuffy. I'm going to go drink some orange juice and read some Rex Stout.
