from a phlegmy haze...

can someone please explain to me why it is that when one gets a cold/sinus infection/general stuffyheadedness, only one nostril gets plugged up at a time?

i only have two classes on wednesdays -- international law at 10:00 and my race, racism & american law seminar at 3:00. the three plus hours i spent in class today consisted of a lot of sniffling, a lot of coughing, and the consuming of several throat lozenges.

oh, did i mention that i've caught some sort of sick?

this sick business has really interfered with my productivity this week. the past two nights i've been so out of it in the evenings that i've taken naps. and now, it's 10:10 and i still have to read for tomorrow's evidence and reproduction, sexuality, and the law classes, and i'm seriously considering getting through evidence (which is at 9:00) and saving sex law for the break i have during the day tomorrow. i hate saving reading for the day of, because i'm not a particularly fast reader and i always feel rushed when i read right before class, further challenging my comprehension. but i'm tired. and full of fluids (i'm trying to drown out my germs with water and orange juice). which means i'll wake up about a billion times in the night to use the loo...

wow, none of this is very interesting at all.

here's some more irrelevance: the new death cab CD "plans" is very good.

and in other news, could it be that the new blog on the scene belongs to my dear friend krista??? i won't put up a link to her (because it may not be her, and she may not want to be linked into the madness yet), but all i can think of is that scene from the fantastically creepy 1932 b&w movie "freaks": "one of us! one of us! one of us!"
