i accomplished very little today. woke up whenever, found out that lunch was being served on the lawn on the far side of the manor house, and feeling not that motivated, i got lunch from the trail room. i read all of mark helprin's 'winter's tale' (finished about half an hour ago), went to fred meyer with celia and amanda (i got deodorant, as my old one literally fell apart when i took it out of my suitcase last weekend. i got a lot of nails - all i needed was two, but they only had packets with lots. chlorox for the chemise, and of course chocolate. for me, not the chemise. i sat around with celia and amanda and ana as they made soft scrub stencils on shirts. it turned out very well. and cookies.

i did sort of accomplish things, i guess. or rather i got some of the stuff necessary to accomplish things. and i was social. y'know, if i have so much trouble walking down the hall to talk to people, imagine if i lived by myself in an apartment or something. eesh.

also, the prescription on my glasses is *definitely* out of date.

this is quite annoying. i'm trying to shorten the straps on my new dress, but the only black thread i have is the heavy duty stuff that you can't take small stitches with, because it twists itself up so much that you can't pull it tight. my solution is to use only one of the three strands that makes up the thread. also, i can't find the bag with my needles and white thread. this is not good. luckily celia had a needle.

also, i think evan forgot that i've met meena. silly boy.

i'm getting a callus on the side of my ring finger where it rubs against the quillion.

carl, i forgot which month the 27th was in. this means you're off the hook. but if you want to drive to portland and back on the 25th of October, let me know.
