Well, here I am. I am not quite sure how long I've been awake now, but I could probably go on for at least another few hours. On the other hand, I am completely done with anything that I have to do for the next couple of days, since I won't be doing anything, and could easily just crawl into bed until about five o'clock tomorrow afternoon, when, hopefully, my Aaron shows up to take me to the airport. I made a few observations today as I sat on random benches across campus looking sort of like a discarded husk with smoke coming out of me. Well no, I was soaking wet almost all day, because everytime I stepped outside, it began to pour, except for when I got my mail, which leads me to believe that clouds like to play Paranoia, so they stopped for a while to make sure my new book didn't get wet. But anyway, I noticed that people have very strange ways of trying to avoid puddles, which, in the end, prove utterly futile. There is the light step, which results in the entire foot being submerged in water when they put weight on it (apparently everyone thinks they have had ballet training and are, sadly, mistaken) then there are the ones who try and jump, and those are the best, because they usually result in very large splashes, which causes someone else to lose the concentration they are focusing ever so intently on their little step, which then also fails. Either way, once everyone gets across it begins to pour again, just so that the rain can let everyone know whose boss. Then, I was just sitting there, minding my own business, when the sun just pops out of the clouds and punches me in the face, and damn did it hurt. I haven't seen the sun in about two weeks now (it's been very cloudy, I'm not a vampire or anything) and as a result I cannot look at anything brighter then a sixty watt bulb without it making my eyes bleed. And now I'm going to put on an episode of sliders, lay down in bed, and drift off to sleep. Although, what I would really like is a massage, because after spending two nights in a row making sure the Dutch win their independence in South America and doing lots of Russian homework, my back is killing me. So ladies, if your looking for an excuse to come over and rub me while I'm passed out, now is the time to do it.
