long. day.
Jan. 7th, 2008 07:57 pmI was humming the first couple lines of Andrew Bird's "Measuring Cups" all day.
Get out your measuring cups and we'll play a new game,
Come to front of the class and we'll measure your brain;
We'll give you a complex and we'll give it a name
Progress, Monday 7 January, 2008
The duellist of Alusind
New words: 350
Total words: 4,030
Reasons for stopping: college.
Darling du jour: Dusty afternoon sunlight shaded her copper-toned skin to speckled bronze, pooling in the hollows above her collarbone, bringing out the red threads in her earth-brown linen shirt.
I am trying to be mindful of specifics. Sometimes it works. In this case, I'm hopeful.
Tyop du jour: N/A
Mean things: complicated-not-exactly-unrequited love.
Today I gym'd, did Greek, achieved a drafty-lacking-a-concluding-paragraph 2.5K-word essay, and went to lectures. I can do an eleven-minute (just) mile in the morning, it appears, though I think I should talk to someone about exercises to strengthen my knees and ankles. I also totally forgot to re-register, so I'll have to remember that tomorrow.
Also tomorrow, the essay's concluding paragraph, and hopefully a draft of the next essay. And climbing. Not missing that for the world.
Then Wednesday, I can start the essay after that.
So far, so good.
Put your backpack on your shoulder, be the good little soldier
It's no different when you're older, we're all predisposed
That's all for questions now, case is closed.
