i pretty much typed this out so my exhausted self can remember a bit of what the hell i did all weekend when i wasn't accomplishing anything. i'm really far behind in school, and it's going to suck. perhaps i can afford to do awfully for once as i usually did okay. Next weekend i am incredibly excited for the SOA protest, but incredibly frusterated that i probably can't go. I haven't stayed in Madison 2 consecutive weekends all semester, and i really need to dosome all of my labs. But SOA is important, i probably won't be able to go next year, and i'm signed up to go already.
the weekend was okay. i love seeing all the EC folk, JWs included somewhat. i technically did get back in time for Scott's installation at FUS, saw most of the speeches and such, and ate many good things. Trouble was, i was pretty mentally burnt out from hours of mom talk in the car.

John: Who's that?
RR: My one true love!
John: But Rachel, you LOVE toast. ¶ 20:01
