Almost didn't make it to church this morning. I woke up feeling vaguely migrainey, but I decided to give it a shot anyway. It wound up working out fine, at any rate. :p

Katikabe hurt us at karate today. Natasha decided we should stretch the whole time, since Sensei wasn't there. OH THE PAIN! Also, I swear I'm physically incapable of side situps. I just wound up flailing around like a fish. :p

Afterwards, I played Sims while marking and doing Japanese homework. Elphaba kept trying to help me mark, but she doesn't know much about chemistry. She also tried to gnaw on one of the books. Wouldn't that have been special? "Sorry, my cat ate your homework." :P We're on numbers in Japanese right now, which is less than fun. I'm so bad at numbers in EVERY language. For the record, this includes English. I used to have to pull customers ahead in drive thru while I tried to remember what those numbers were called. I understand the concept of numbers fine, if they handed me money, I knew how much change I owed them, but the names of numbers are elusive to me. This led to the fun time in German of reading 404 as "vier hundert und... quatre?"

Yes, that's right, when I'm really stuck I default to French. :p I'm going to blame... knowing that it's not the English word? Or possibly, in the case of numbers, the fact that I took math in French all through elementary school. :p

And yes, I realize you're sitting through this school stuff in hopes of hearing about the adventures of the Firefly Sims I was playing with while doing all this stuff. Well, Saffron has left Mal. They're living in different houses, though the game still lists them as married, but I'll figure out something to do about that. Maybe she can catch him with INara or something. River is now engaged to Bob so my sister will stop ASKING about that. :p And there are more Tam babies. I was feeling silly, so Simon got abducted by aliens and impregnated immediately after getting Kaylee pregnant. Having two pregnant Sims and a toddler is not a good combination, incidently. River got put to work a lot. :p Simon finally made surgeon, so he gets to go into crime once he has the baby. Then he can pursue his lifelong goal of being a criminal mastermind! Currently, I'm reloading the game until he has a girl, because he already has two boys with Kaylee and I want them to have a GIRL now. :p Especially since boys' names are less fun to come up with (Amos and Timothy) and I have a girl's name already picked out (Marigold). :p

Oh, and I'm currently writing up Sparknotes on the great flamewar between Bohr and Einstein. I love academia. :p

Hmm, so we won another football game on Saturday. I really don't know what to say. Hell is apparently experiencing an extended cold snap. Two games in a row? I guess that first win did good things for the team. :p But really, between the football team WINNING and news of the plague and the fire both making it out of the bubble, I'm starting to wonder if I've fallen into some sort of Bizarro world. Next it's going to stop being windy!

I kid, I kid. Hell may freeze over, the bubble may pop, but nothing is going to change the fact that we are located on a MARSH. :p

I turned the heat on in my bedroom yesterday. It was far more exciting than it should have been. Why have I been freezing every morning? Because I neglected to look at the thermostat to see that it was still on a summer setting. :p

This week is pretty doomish. I have my Inorganic midterm tomorrow, the infamous three to four hour Quantum midterm of DOOM on Wednesday and the literature review for Inorganic due Thursday. At least my Japanese midterm has been moved to Monday? And I finally have all the papers for my lit review. I'm missing one of his big review articles, but we just don't have that journal back far enough. Unless there's a paper copy in the library. I guess I should check in to that. :p

Dr. Barclay is teaching our spec class today, so there's a chance we might actually know what's going on for a change.
