- Woke at 2 PM
- Worked on theory paper
- Kate’s questions about Cody
- Kate had a lot of questions about Cody for some reason. Luckily I was healed enough for them not to hurt, though I wasn’t able to answer most of them.
- Forgot Exponent meeting
- Oops. Even had it on my PDA. Oh well.
- Talked to Laura
- Laura got online and I felt like talking to her. I told her about life, school, and otherwise. She mentioned the Kinsey movie coming up, which was nice.
- Talked to Kate
- Kate told me about some kids she ran into in the neighborhood while on a walk. She had just earlier told me about a murder that had taken place in her neighborhood around the time that Laura and I had the fire and rape in our apartment complex. Anyway, the kids were trying to see who could touch the house because it is haunted. Kate tried to explain to the kids that it was a crime of passion and not random (haha!). Then the kids started asking her all these religious questions.
- I laughed at Kate for trying to explain something so complex to such young children, then she told me about this time she tried to explain the sun to a nephew. The nephew had asked why the solar lights weren’t on, and she tried to use an analogy of a sailboat and the wind to explain that the lights charged during the day… What a crazy girl. I commented on the fact that I don’t know how old kids have to be before they can use such an abstract concept as an analogy and she said she hadn’t thought of that.
- It was also funny to hear Kate’s three word directives to Miranda. One was, “Danger, hot, stove!” Another was, “Stinky, trashcan, ewww!,” with a few more “ewwws” for emphasis. Miranda is really sensitive apparently, because she started crying. Kate said she said, “Ouch!,” once when Miranda bit her, and Miranda started crying then too. Kate said that she thinks Miranda is so sensitive because she’s a girl… Noooooooooo!
- Talked to Jacqui
- Jacqui told me about some Juvenile song that she likes and said that she thinks McD’s gave her food poisoning, because that was the only place she ate at that made sense time-wise.
- Slept at 2 AM
- I thought about going to the store but I was too tired. It still took me a while to sleep though.
