anything but.

let's talk about the election.

i cut linguistics wednesday morning because i couldn't drag myself out of bed in time.

i slept for four hours in the middle of the afternoon.

i missed ballet.

today, however. i went to ballet and it was cold enough to wear legwarmers, which is exciting in a way that is hard to explain.

i guess it's comparable to the way you feel on the first day you have to wear a sweater--but not a coat or even a jacket--and the night smells faintly of christmas.

or the way you feel the first time you turn the heater on in your car and the warm air hits your knuckles on the steering wheel. that reminds me of christmas more than anything. more than christmas trees, even.

why does the main office of arts & science have a christmas tree displayed in the corner when we haven't even had thanksgiving break? hodges hall≠ hobby lobby.

on today's episode of My So-Called Life (the one where jordan catalano tries to pressure angela into having sex with him), angela ponders:

people are always saying you should be yourself, like yourself is this definite thing, like a toaster.            

what i want to know is: what does it say about me, that what i want more than anything is to see angela hook up with brian krakow?

I understand why it's exciting to wear leg warmers to ballet. What I don't understand is why people are wearing them in everyday life... like it's a fashion or something...
