I'm such a dork. I got a letter announcing the Census and how I should be getting the form in a couple weeks. While I question the necessity of sending out a "it's coming!" letter, can't wait to fill the thing out. Yay civics!

I could have written these words EXACTLY.
So I'm so congested today that during AP I had to take a time out to catch my breath. No good no good!
Also, I received in the mail yesterday the cutest, teeniest, tiniest violin. One of my students is fixing the bridge and restringing and tuning it.
OH man. I'm so excited. I can't wait for Noah to play with it.

If you guys ever make it out here, and he likes playing it, I'll have to make sure to have my violist neighbor play with him. I love walking home from the pool and hearing strains of her music down the street.
Oh, and there is a renter on the corner who is a cellist, always hear him giving lessons. Apparently, enough string professionals on this block to make a quartet (I don't know who the fourth is.)

Jesus, I make everything about my house or my hood. I swear. It might wane. But this is the biggest love affair I've ever had, so I can't promise. I'm insufferable.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I just drank Theraflu. It STILL tastes like ass. Let's hope it works.

It's better with a shot of whisky.

Interesting chart of price per calorie of a bunch of different foods. [link] It's kind of a weird selection of foods, though -- lots of candy and junk food, and there are a bunch of fresh fruits and vegetables on the chart as just fruits and vegetables, but most of the meat is there as ingredients -- a cheeseburger and chili.

I can't taste anything. I can only notice that things are spicy. But because I can't actually breathe, nothing has any taste beyond the most bitter medicinal taste (or the most painful salsa hot taste).
A shot of whisky would have helped. But I think a flexeril will work as well.
