listening to: bnl, what a good boy
la. my tummy is all full of tasty tasty thai food. went dooown to springfield to get it. but it was worth the drive. (priscilla: i was going to very excitedly point out that the last time i was in springfield was with
you but then i realized that assorted nerd bowl tournaments and theatre tickets have made that statement patently false. however, the last superawesomecool time i was in springfield was with you! ^_^)
kait: i had a dream about you last night! or rather, i dreamed that the headline of one of the front page stories in our paper somehow involved the phrase "rookie2k" so i clipped it out and mailed it to you. yeah, that was the whole dream.
anyway. the last few days have been fun (although made crappier by cramps and sick-feeling-ness) buuut i think i'm ready to head back to grinnell. speaking of which, this chick at magic kitchen (the awesome thai restaurant) was from grinnell! but she just lived there, she didn't go to the college. still, though. (she saw reid's sweatshirt and got all excited. aww... grinnell people.)
i totally packed like i'm homeless. i put all my clothes in my laundry bag, and then i have 2 canvas sacks, a plastic bag, and a big mesh sack.
oh thank god.
blessings got an intelligent review off ffn. thank you, random reviewer, for restoring my faith in humanity at large ^_^ (and it helps that it was positive, even! although some intelligent criticism would have worked, as well. btw, i haven't abandoned the story, in case anyone cares. i've been writing part 4 like... 10 words at a time. my attention span's been worse than usual....)
speaking of attention span.. what? (*grumble* i wish i were joking. focus, please come back, i need you for school!)
oh, priscilla-- did you ever get your christmas gift?
