it's now saturday, and the weather's let up somewhat (let's say about five or so degrees). i'm still trying to get over this cold, and that the internet is still not in the apartment. damn you sbc... and here i am having to go to brh on a weekend. ah indeed, and then last night i got up at around one to put insect repellent on because of those damned mosquitoes.

mosquitoes, really, suck. both literally and figuratively. somehow, they're the bane of my existence, since i couldn't fall back to sleep until four o'clock rolled around. i was so itchy and agitated this wee morning that you didn't want to be around me. i would have pulled the head out of a lamb had it agitated me too, but luckily, there were no lambs to agitate me and therefore all lambs were safe last night. for the while.

have any of you noticed that when people get sick, their voices get lower? that and they can't pronounce the nasals correctly (be cruel and ask them to say "mennonite" for you or something. i'm sure they'll appreciate it). i actually think it makes them sound more seductive, what with the lower voice and the raspiness in the back of the throat. it doesn't quite work for everyone, though... you gotta have just the right level of oomph and something else (hotness?) so that it doesn't come off as desperate.

the weather's getting more and more bearable. but the heat is still oppressive like an old white man in alabama, and we'll leave it at that.

i need calamine lotion, a screen for the window, and minty soap (you know, the soap with the minty stuff that leaves you all tingly afterward? yeah, that soap). the summer is definitely here.
