the cold’s working its way through my system, hopefully making an exit soon. i should be fast asleep by now, but against my better judgment I’m not. it’s been a wending, weird day. I was planning on going to school today, but when I woke up I felt like shit, so I emailed my professor and told her I wasn’t going to be in class today. she thoughtfully and kindly responded that she was sorry I wasn’t feeling well. i’ve been trying to nuke myself with C and all, and Nicole offered some of her Robitussin to me tonight as well. my sore throat is disappearing, which is good, and there’s none of that ‘white death’ in my tonsils.
I don’t have all that much to say. It’s been an unproductive week, although part of that can be attributed to the onset of this sickness. I’m looking forward to LOST tomorrow, though, and I hope I sleep well tonight. I wish I had more to write. I’m just hanging in there right now, trying to feel better… I hate being sick, but I suppose who doesn’t? sleep well everyone, and try not to get sick too. I aim to have this seen through to its conclusion before spring break, hopefully.

sleep is coming early tonight, at least relatively so. I’ve got work tomorrow, per the usual, so I ought to get to sleep in a few here. I worked for five hours on Pithos stuff today, trying to clean up one of our papers and input it into Quark, and I still wasn’t done by the time I left. I really wish we could work on this shit at home, since it would only make it about ten times easier if so. Bleh to software licences.
I’ve felt like I’ve been more asleep than awake the past couple of days though. dreams seemed like reality, and time’s slipped through my hands like so much empty air. I’m trying to get out more, because I think if I coop myself up in here too much, it’ll be detrimental. but i enjoy retreating into myself, contemplating and pondering the workings of this curious world of ours. this is the threshold, the crossroads, and my feet are on both sides while they drift rapidly apart; something will eventually win out. the passage of midnight, the transition from day to day, is irresistibly attractive, as is the sensation of passing from one day to another. but I must relish that whilst sleeping, so have a wonderful night and such, and I shall return when able. my little kosmos beckons.

I hate the Daylight Savings Time switch so fucking much. It’s better in the long run, but in the short run it’s bloody hell. I was all muddled today in terms of time, and I didn’t really do shit other than watching TV, eating, and breathing. Oh, and hanging out with Nicole, of course, which makes everything more fun, even if we’re just doing nothing. She’s on the fast-track to getting sick, though, and in the last day we’ve bought an arsenal of cold-fighting weapons. Per her request, I bought some Ricola cough drops last night, as well as some Emergen-C anti-cold packets. This morning (Sunday) I went and got her some Robitussin to help with the symptoms; I’ve not shown any yet myself except for a runny nose and some congestion. (more…)

i’m so tired, and I know I end up writing way too late. but you know how it is. i’ve been playing around with new layout designs here, as you can see. The one I currently have up is called “Fog” (cf. footer for more details). I’ve got a considerable amount of custom shit in my own “theme,” so I need to make sure that all translates over into these new ones I’ve downloaded. I really like this one so far, but there’s so many others I downloaded that are fantastic as well. I’ll be picking and choosing for awhile I think, so expect to see changes here and there. Many of the themes I enjoyed most were darker and involving the sea or some of the gloom of nature. Such things fascinate me, and the picture of these foggy, skeletal woods across a lake/pond is brilliant to me.
in any case, it’s late as can be. time-change day, “spring forwards,” which I hate with a passion. It’s 05.15, but it should be 04.15, and either way I should have been in bed four or so hours ago. time does indeed fly, although Ennius one-ups Time on account of the fact that he and his poetry fly further and more loftily — volito vivos per ora virum – “I flit, alive, through the mouths of men.” and with that, Time, may you let me rest for a few hours and make it seem like a lovely night of 8hrs’ sleep. Goodnight, all. And please do let me know what you think of the theme(s) as they change.

just a quick note before I’m off to bed, already too late as it is (it’s past 3am now). I didn’t finish the Pompeii paper by Monday, and I’m still working on it. I’ve got 8 pages written (which is way better than zero, but still, 12 more to go), and I’m going to do the best I can to get it finished by tomorrow… by Monday at the latest. in any case, sleep calls. I’ll write more when I get a chance. Otherwise, life is good.

I wish that I had the power to call upon saving shades, εἴδωλ’ ἀρωγά; I’ve mentioned this before, however. love, however destructive it can be in its primal form (think Eros), will be there for me ultimately. I am ever-grateful for Nicole and her love and support, even though at times it’s “tough love.” i’m in my room, my little κόσμος, insulated from the world, at least physically so; through the Internet I can be anywhere I want, provided it’s connected up. and Night, well… she nourishes me when I’m asleep, and I welcome her again once I’ve gone again through the circle of the day.
