Man, I really did not need another day like.... Monday? I think it was Monday. Maybe Tuesday?

Today was just an odd one from the get-go. I've been waking up at 5-5;30 almost all week, and this time I never really got back to proper sleep.... and yet somehow the next time I looked at the clock properly it was almost 7:40. Which is almost the time I call to see if Jola is going for her regular playdate. So I jumped into some clothes and took her out, and got back in the house literally just as the phone rang. Phew! Although usually I am the one who calls.

I rushed out of the house because I knew I had a voicemail from the dentist, and I was hoping that I was going to be able to get in today, but kinda worried that it would be super early. And I was right! I got to school at 8:50, and the appointment they had open was at 9:15! So I hustled my butt over there, only to realize that my walkman batter was dying :(

This was distressing, because I go to the gym with tethys123 on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and usually the gym music is awful. anyway, I got back to school around ten, as they just had to grind down one of my fillings to fix my bite so that my jaw will (hopefully) stop hurting. It is still sore to chew on that side, but they told me that it is possibly bruised because I waited so long/it took so long :p
Anyway, that left me a little over an hour before I was supposed to go to the gym! So I did manage to get a little work done..... but very little :/

Went to the gym, and that went fine, and from there directly to a brown bag lecture that my friend Brad was giving on a project he worked on this summer (when he wasn't in the hospital with a Mystery Infection of Doom). It was a cool talk! He had an animated gif-thingy of the burning of Washington (It is a related War of 1812 ship) ^-^

Anyway, that ended at 1;30 or so, which left half an hour before my usual lunch-with-the-library-crowd. Again, did a few minor bits of work, but not a whole lot :p

Lunch was good, though I forgot my thread and didn't get much more than a few stitches done. After lunch, i had to zip up to the rec center - i volunteered to help with the Amazing Aggie Art Race - put on my the Stark galleries on campus. it is inspired by the Amazing Race, only with more of a ficus on Art. Later I will tell you about the challenge I was working with, because.... the race got interrupted :p We got a Code AAMaroon that there was a possible Shooter on campus (there wasn't actually, in case you haven't heard. It was someone with a replica rifle, though I don't have any details that I believe on that yet). So, everything got locked down, and I got stuck there until 5:45 when the all-clear was given -_- because I was working a University event, I couldn't leave, and neither could the people at my station, so......) I did have my sewing at least.

I finally got home around 6:15 or so.... or maybe a little later. Fortunately, my computer part has arrived!

However, it has not fixed the problem, so excessive typos are due to the fact that I still have only the TV as a monitor. It was fine until I closed and opened the screen. I don't know what the problem is - maybe it is time to take it to a shop. *cries*

Thanks everyone for the song recs though :)
