Imagine me saying this without stopping for breath.

So yesterday I took a very difficult midterm for Diff Eq. It depressed me and I went to Game Kastle to get a hug from Jeff before hanging out with Chris Greene (and going to the awesome bakery with the amazing mousse.) And then The Greeneling and I went to hang out with Barrett and Kathryn (and I stuck around to play a little Rock Band with Rob and ended up spending the night. It was convenient.)

Today we celebrated Kathryn's birthday (which is on Monday) by a dinner out. And earlier than that we played Rock Band and earlier than that we fed ducks (some of whom had been trained to jump and catch the pieces of bread) and earlier than that we went to Baskin Robbins where Kathryn and I got ice cream to share and Barrett just got a waffle cone - no ice cream - and earlier than that Kathryn and I played Jambo.

Kathryn and I also ended up watching about a third of an episode of Doctor Who before the boys all wanted to play Smash Brothers so Kathryn felt like going to bed so I came home.

I've pretty much gotten over the sucky midterm thing. I'm still pissed, but hey - one more challenge is good.

Kinda wish Jeff had joined us tonight. I need to get him to play Rock Band. It is important. Muah ha ha.

Uff. Renee's hanging out with a friend she has a crush on in the room. I think I shall watch the rest of the Hand of Fear (under a spiffy codename in youtube) and then go to bed.

The last of it.

"I worry about you."
"Yes but..."
"But what?"
"I worry about you."
"So be careful."
"We'll both be careful."

She was so mad
She was arguing so much and then she said she'd leave
She rushed to get her things
So he'd finally let her be

For he'd never heard a word.

But when he said -
Once she came in with all her things -
That she had to go
She never wished to go
She said it was a joke
She said please let her stay

But no, she had to go.

I guess the receptionist voice is back.

"Good afternoon, you've reached the Media Lab."

"Media. Lab."

"...Yes, how may I help you?"

"Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't realize you'd answered."

The Invasion of Time

....I'm confused! SO out of character! Seeking out responsibility?!

And I can't even get back on AIM so Lia can laugh and gloat at me.

Plausibly

First of all, the Torchwood writers hate Tosh so much, poor girl.

The poem is NOT inspired by that. Okay, maybe a little. But there are two other sources, darnit.
**********

Ages old and all alone
But she is young and he is worse
And few years burn as if an age

Find no reason left to care
Leaving him behind
Let her shout where you can't hear
But still you hear and still you hear
And somewhere in your heart it's just enough.

There you go
It happened again
How many times till you start to think it's you?
How many times until you doubt
That you could ever leave
The same horrid story

Until you leave the first behind
You will stay young or maybe worse.
And there you'll sit curled in your bed
And chant your fears to drown the verse

There's nothing left for you unless
You throw away the primary story
Break from all that you once thought
And see the lies in all their gory truth
Again in all its glory
