October 26, 1999.

Today was my [quote/unquote] day off. I did manage to sleep a fair bit & fool around with another teacher's college application package (yay). Then it was off to Orillia, to see my uncle's ashes interred. Read the rest of my mother's prepared speech when she began weeping past coherence. Was trapped for 4 hours in next to my brother, who insisted on sharing tidbits from the vegan manifesto in his lap. I have never been so desperate to change the subject in my life.

And then. And then. I came home, polished off the book review, ate corn dogs & watched Buffy. So I have nothing whatsoever to say today. Death, book reports & cheesy shows. Not much revealing or uplifting.

I could talk about the upcoming weekend, but it wouldn't be wise from a personal liability standpoint. I could talk about Game, but there's not that much to say. I could talk about Agamemnon, and our conversation last night about taking home the Host in ziplock baggies...but I'm just not feeling entertaining tonight. I'm all writed out, I think. For tonight.

"you know what's the best part of being in a relationship? Those moments when you're surprised to find out that someone understands you more than you thought possible, and loves you anyway."
