Damn. It's due next thursday. And I thought I had time. Yeesh. Better get cracking. *grin*

If he doesn't get $10,000 from this, my faith in humankind will be destroyed. Ok, not really. But he still better get some money. I'm optimistic about my chances, as well.

... What's Smoky's address?

Oh, mum found the return envelope so I've sent my reply (and my $200 enrolment [haha! enrolment!] deposit) to Boulder. Hopefully I'll have all those I's *cough cough* cleared up by the time I send my final transcript, so they'll still want me. Jebus, I hope I pass CAS. Urk.

The pizza I ate for lunch was good, but I think it burned the roof of my mouth. Ow.

I had the weirdest dream a couple nights ago. Like, I was in this room standing in the middle of this big group of people I knew, and Ian was standing at the front of the room, talking, or something. It might have been the sixty. Though I'm not sure I knew about the second one at the time I dreamed this. Hmmm. But anyway, I wandered off and went to this pet store, but the owner lady was real mean and lured this little dragon fluffball creature to eat a trail of flowers, or something, then trapped it in a transparent pringles can. And as I left I saw this monkey swinging around in the backroom. And Eric and Chaffin were hanging out together, and Eric started watching the Grinch, the animated version thing. But, yeah, the weirdest part was that Eric had a twin brother, who was looking for him. He's like, "Where's Eric? Do you know?" and then I realized that Chaffin and Eric had stolen my car. So I got a ride home from Kym instead. Yeah, that was a fun dream.
