mmmmm. i am drinking a glass of water. it is the best water i have ever tasted. i think it's because i've been thirsty for so long and without water. i don't know why. there really isn't an explanation. several times in the past hour or two, i have thought, hmmm, i am really very thirsty. there's water in the fridge. glasses in our apt. i don't understand why it took me so long. but now it's done and the water tastes so much better.

today i bought a set of gray flannel sheets on impulse. just because i bought them on impulse does not mean i regret buying them. on the contrary, i think they were very necessary. see, it's been cold lately. which means at the end of the day when i want to crawl into bed, the sheets are cold and unpleasant. and then after i heat up my little tiny corner of the bed, i stretch my legs out and all of the uncharted regions of my bed are just as freezing as they were before i got into bed. you know what i'm talking about. this just sucks. plus, my heat capacity is really not so high. once i run out of that stored up body heat, it takes a long time for me to get warm. so, in an epiphany in the bedsheet aisle at target, i thought, 'flannel sheets! i bet they stay warm and fuzzy all day long!' it's funny, because flannel sheets normally bother me. i mean, in normal houston weather. jon swears by them, but i think they just make you hot. he says they're soft and breathable and do not make you hot and sweaty when it's hot out, but i don't buy it. plus, i like the coolness of brushed cotton when it's hot out. it feels nice. so, that is my discourse on sheets for the day. i feel like i spend a lot more time than the average bear discussing sheets.

tonight angie and lyn made fajitas. they were good. they made portobello mushrooms. yes, they were really good. i'm not always the biggest mushroom fan, but every now and again, i really like them. i tried some soup the other day. i didn't think i liked it, but it had been a while, so i bought some and it was pretty good. the only thing is, the two kinds i bought, tomato/vegetable ravioli and tomato basil rotini are pretty much pasta with more sauce than normal. i don't think i'll ever be able to eat like, soup that's cream of anything. i think i can only eat soup when i can pretend it's some other sort of entree-like food.

wrote most of my history paper today. four pages of a three to four page paper. it doesn't have a conclusion yet. and i still have more stuff i want to add. but i figured, ok, i'm done with this much, it's probably really bad, but i can come back on monday and fix it up and it'll benefit from the time i had away from it. and it's mostly done so there won't be the pressure that there would be if i had to start it monday evening. now if i can just convince myself to get my english paper done tomorrow, we'll be fine.

what i didn't realize is that we have an extra campanile rehearsal tomorrow. 1-4. could you pick more inconvenient hours? and angie and lyn and i are going to get dinner at my house. and i need to watch secretos del corazon. which i was planning on watching today. it's funny how i forgot about that. like, i was sitting here, finishing up the last paragraph of my history paper, and trying to figure out why i was in such a hurry to get to the gym and to target. and i couldn't figure it out. so i decided not to be in a hurry. i figured it out later. stupid spanish movie. and the library doesn't open until noon, which means i have to watch this movie from 4-6. which means i really should start my english paper in the morning. i really, really should. we'll see what happens.

nothing too exciting happened today besides the sheets. i apologize for the boredom you've experienced after reading today's update. i'll try to come up with some excitement for tomorrow. i'll try to try, at least.
