clap your hands

I haven't updated because I'm lazy and... wait, no, that's it. I'm lazy.

But I'm also tired. I took two AP tests this week (Lit and Lang), and feel decently confident about them.

Now I can forget everything I've learned this year, right?

Right.

I took my lit test this morning, then went to Dad's knee doctor (Dr. Robinson. Isn't that your orthopedist, Kate?). After that I went to beautiful downtown Gainesville and got my portrait taken along with the other winners of the AT Somethingorother Scholarship for Gainesville College. I'll be in the JEMCO News! Hooray! (end sarcasm.)

I ate dinner at a possibly-hygenically-challenged Long John Silvers, which probably wil make me sick by sunrise. I really don't like the food there, but Mom loves it, so off we went. Whenever we see one (which is thankfully rare, and leads me to believe in the existence of a God) Mom makes us stop and eat there. I was all for the Burger King across the street (I can at least see what's on it, as opposed to the deep-fried crust of LJS fish, which may hide a multitude of culinary sins), but got outvoted.

Also, I had a headache. Still do, and have had it since sometime yesterday. Honestly, it's been building since Monday, but it's only hit me yesterday and today. Couldn't be stress related at all, could it?

I just thank God I don't get migraines. I get some badass headaches, but I never get the sensitivity to light and sound that goes with migraines.

Somebody send me stuff. I need to make t-shirts and I have all the supplies at hand, but I'll be more inclined to motivation if somebody sends me stuff so I'm indebted to them. Send me anything, whether it be a cool link to a webpage or a physical package of stuff at my real-life-walk-down-my-driveway mailbox. Email me for my address.

I feel like I could sleep for close to twenty hours, but unless I'm feeling really sick come morning, I'll just stick to the normal eight.

New York City - They Might Be Giants

-------

You called me last night on the telephone
And I was glad to hear from you 'cause I was all alone
You said, "It's snowing, it's snowing! God, I hate this weather."
Now I walk through blizzards just to get us back together

We met in the springtime at a rock-and-roll show
It was on the Bowery when it was time to go
We kissed on the subway in the middle of the night
I held your hand, you held mine, it was the best night of my life.

'Cause everyone's your friend in New York City
And everything looks beautiful when you're young and pretty
The streets are paved with diamonds and there's just so much to see
But the best thing about New York City is you and me

Statue of Liberty, Staten Island Ferry, Co-op City, Katz's and Tiffany's
Central Park, Brooklyn Bridge, The Empire State where Dylan lived
Coney Island and Times Square, Rockefeller Center
Wish I was there

You wrote me a letter just the other day
Said, "Springtime is coming soon so why don't you come to stay."
I packed my stuff, got on the bus, I can't believe it's true
I'm three days from New York City and I'm three days from you

'Cause everyone's my friend in New York City
And everything looks beautiful when you're young and pretty
The streets are paved with diamonds and there's just so much to see
But the best thing about New York City is you and me

'Cause everyone's my friend in New York City
And everything looks beautiful when you're young and pretty
The streets are paved with diamonds and there's just so much to see
But the best thing about New York City is you and me.

Goodnight world.
