Must. Stop. Researching Lymond-y things on the internet. Only end up discovering things I haven’t read yet. Today was the first time I spoiled something for myself. && it’s only pages away!

Back at work, two days after Christmas, means: I realized this morning that I left my government ID at school. Visitor entrance, get at me. It’s rainy and cold but I get to read Lymond on the RideOn bus. My throat is sore and my nose is runny but my supervisor buys me coffee, so.

Best Christmas present ever: I was pulled over by an undercover cop on my way back from school yesterday (probably an hour away from home). He said, “You blew past me! I followed you for awhile - did you know you were going 90 mph? Look, it’s three days ‘til Christmas, you’re trying to get home to your family, I just don’t want you to get hurt. Merry...

I just thought about how much doing the citations for this 20 page paper is going to suck. I always think it will take me like 20 minutes so it’s okay if I save them for the end, and then four hours later I am still hunting for books in my room to cite, or searching for chicago rules online. Disregard this post. Why am I still awake?
