and they've hardly bothered us since then

I woke up at eight this morning, on four hours' sleep, without my alarm, and felt awake and alive. I turned my mp3's on and started singing along like freakin' Snow White. I have no idea what brought this on (perhaps the three squares of ultra-dark chocolate I had for breakfast? Except normally I wouldn't have even had enough energy to eat) but I want it to happen more often.

Let's see. Since my last real-life update, I have attended a Peace Corps recruitment session that got me very psyched about doing that again; sworn never again to sleep in class; paid my tuition; gone to see "You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown" at Goddard with mom and [livejournal.com profile] reclusivewaffle and old friends of the family, and learned the joy of conversing with other people who compulsively quote Tom Lehrer at odd moments; read all mom's old Peanuts collections and started working on an oldskool!snoopy mood theme; done a load of laundry and cleaned my room and imposed discipline on my Pile of Papers; realized I'm out of good Highlander fic to read; realized my disinclination to step on the orange cobbles on Hornbake Mall is approaching a pathology; and actually done homework.

I need to friend some all-spanish ljs to practice reading, I think. Any recommendations?

I'm also seriously considering going to see what aikido club is like this evening. Somebody talk me into it.

Yeah.. the slashing part is really only a few frames, and you can't actually see her face. I could send you all 49 individual frames if you want :-P
