Toto likes carrots. Old!Not!Emily got the biggest kick out of this and showed it to everyone he had over at the apartment. It's pretty funny.

I have so much reading and school work to do, and bleh.

My stomach's better though, the yogurt eating has helped.

Um...tree moving? Hire an itinerant lumberjack? I hear they're ok, if they sleep all night, and work all day...

Ask the movers. If they won't do it, ask a nearby nursery for suggestions.

But juliana is a Caucasian devil woman.

H'rm. I'm starting to think I should collar the two Indian postdoc fellows in our division (one immigrant, one first-generation USian, both still actively connected to their family and cultural history, though, sadly, both already married) and ask if they have any non-devil woman single friends.

hrummmpppph. I decided I am sick . breakfastmade me very tired. no lion dance at the local very good chinese place for me tonight.

BAH- I hate not being able to get a lower student loan rate because I consolidated in the mid 90s at freaking 9%!
