I just had lunch. I went to bed relatively early last night, after I got home from Diablotin (in bed by around 11:30). I was tired then. I got up around 8 this am. Suddenly, I am exhausted, and am desperately craving a nap. I have class in about twenty minutes though, and then need to go pick up a few things at the library. Maybe *then* I will have a nap. Yesterday when I was shopping, this happened as well. I'd been running all over wal-mart, looking for various bits (and I forgot to get a hammer... I have no idea what happened to mine, but it never made it to NC. Now I can't put my bookshelves together ;_;), and when I stopped, I almost felt dizzy, and suddenly really tired. Maybe I've just not been eating right. I've been rushing for a lot of things lately, and also I had a can of coke yesterday for the first time in ages, so it could have any number of causes. Still, I think a nap will be in order later on. I can stop at the little store on my way back from the library and get a hammer too, if I remember.


I've pretty much finished my presentation now. I just need to go through it and time it. Once I know how long it will take me, I can conclude it properly, and then either take out or put in a few more examples. I'd be sad if I don't get to mention how Davis tricked the Portuguese into thinking he was a Man-of-War, though. I'm already sad that I had to take out references to Snelgrave. ;_;

Tonight will probably mostly be spent reading The Diligent which is an account of a French slaving voyage in a ship of the same name, go figure. It's really interesting so far, even just to look at the French hypocracy - it is okay to have slaves in the colonies, but unthinkable in France itself. Gotta love mercantilism!

I am off to class! I hope I can stay awake -_-

Someone should write a paper or book called "Croon your rightful lawful king" either about or full of Jacobite songs. Sorry, I had a moment this afternoon where "Whal be King but Charlie" popped into my mind, tand this is what you get as a result. I blame my mother for instilling be with this odd sense of humour.

I will have to see about participating in Shan's cookie meme later on this evening, depending on my work. Although, I guess the exterminators are coming tomorrow, so I have to clean out my cupboards so they can spray them. It is kind of annoying... but I can see the usefulness of it, both in making tenants clean their cupboards, and in terms of pest control. I just don't have anywhere to *put* the stuff! I guess I will also have to clear off my table. Bah!

First, I need to make dinner. I'm procrastinating on that because all I can think of to make is stirfry, and I'm not in the mood. Ahh well. Anyone else have any suggestions for what I can do with this little piece of cheap, crappy steak in the next five-ten minutes?

...yeah, I'm not holding my breath ;p

Edit
Take that, stirfry! I made a little stew! With herb dumplings! Which I totlaly pulled out of my ass! ... By which I mean I made up the recipe as I went along. And I think I will make lemon squares!

Probably at some point I should also do some work tonight, huh? ;p Well, at least my cupboards are empty.

Make cookies. Telll the world at large! And then, share the cookies ^-^

I am making lemon squares. I will take some in tomorrow to my class, for after I give my presentation.

Share the love!

I also have a declious smoothie made with frozen strawberries, apple cider, and a banana. But that's all for me :)
