Aujourd'hui

Today I spent two hours adding material to my mini-thesis and to my consternation it seems to have got shorter. This is not how the world is supposed to work, is it?

Work was divine today because I had actual work to do. Being busy makes life much more fun. This is one of my main problems, actually; I rush to sign up for things because I so enjoy being busy and then discover that you are expected to to, like, do all of the things you have said you would do. Uh oh.

Last night at capoeira I learned the actual refrain to a song, so now I can sing along properly instead of playing the ultra-fun and ever-changing Syllable Guessing Game. I think I figured something else out too: it appears to me, if you will tolerate for a moment an SAT analogy, that Spanish vowels: Portuguese vowels as French: Quebecois. With that mystery resolved, all that remains is to work out why my right leg armada sucks so bad when there is someone at whom to aim it. Pacifist limb syndrome is all that comes to mind at the moment, which certainly seems no weirder than phantom limb syndrome.

I have nothing else interesting to say, except WAIT! Edwards endorses Obama! And then Obama makes a gender oopsie - not cool, but America just can't stay mad at you, Barry.
