so.
Today got better. I didn't have to play in the scary tournament because my partner never showed up, and then I did lots and lots of homework, which actually made me feel a lot better. And I listened to Joni Mitchell and Laurie Anderson, which also made me feel better. And I constructed a octohedron out of paperclips for math, which is pretty cool, and was a nice way of endulging my artsncrafts cravings. Also had a long conversation with my parents, which was nice. (Oh. We talked about voting, and the primaries, and my mother made a good point, which was...I'm from Massachusetts, which Kerry is going to take anyway, because he's our senator, so what does it matter? And my dad made a good point when I complained about Kerry's voting record, being that he's a politician, that's what he does. And he argues that the only reason Edwards doesn't have the same record is that he doesn't have any experience, or history. He hasn't had time to be inconsistent yet. So although I haven't quite decided who I'm going to vote for, I feel more informed, and less worried. Not that my vote matters. *grin*)
Anyway. So now I'm just waiting for the not!boy to come over to have hot chocolate with me. He has good (but bitter) real stuff that we have to make in the kitchen, which is fun. And tasty. Hopefully he comes soon, as I'm getting tired already. It was a really short weekend, but exhausting. Why is it that weekends are more work than the weeks? Sometimes, I think that my temperment is just not suited for parties. But I like hanging out with my friends...hmm.
Okay. I think I'm going to listen to some Kate Bush, and maybe read some Aristotle.
Yanno, it's weird. Just last year I can remember thinking about how all the artists I listen to were male. Except for Tori Amos, and I didn't really listen to her that much. But now I listen to Joni Mitchell and Kate Bush and Laurie Anderson and Judy Collins (guilty pleaure!) and Beth Orton and Nico and Cat Power and Patti Smith and Sam Phillips (woman!)...etc. Hmm. I wonder why that is...It's not like I only listen to women though. Maybe it's just that my tastes have expanded a LOT.
