and then i hit him with the hardcover Milton

i've spent a lot of time this week opening hundreds of new posts on blogger and xanga without actually posting any entries.
i dunno why. i always feel /compelled/ to say something but when i'm met with the blank face of an empty post, i am impossibly intimidated.

man i fail at life.


today i spent a lot of time sleeping. like, a /lot/ of time. i can't say why. i woke up relatively late (8:40 or so) and went puttering about the house until my parents woke to cook me breakfast (pancakes! they were soft and fluffy and delish). puttered around the house some more, checked my email and people's xangas and such like, wrestled my little brother, then decided to soak in the bath.
relieve stress yanno. or summat like that.
well anyway, when i finally pulled my lazy ass out of the tub the waves of sleepiness were practically emanating out of me, so i crawled into bed and slept for three hours.
woke up 2:00 to eat lunch and snatch some of the sponge cake my dad bought (triple-layered with chestnut filling). tried to stay up but my eye was twitching and my brain felt like it had been salted and dried and settled on dragging myself back into the squishcomfort of my mattress.
woke up in time for dinner and have been up since.
i missed all the television i used to watch (toonami and adult swim and suchlike). i keep thinking 'man i oughta catch up this week' but i've kind of lost interests in a lot of the series .naruto i've read via manga, which, btw, is becoming more and more tragic if only because naruto's optimism about sasuke is kind of pitiful and yet /heart breaking/, especially when you find out sasuke's off happily destroying orochimaru; mar i'm waiting to finally hit around where i was reading, which is looking to occur sometime around 'never'; prince of tennis i never held much interest in; bleach is in the same situation as naruto; trinity blood.... man, i adored the manga but the fact that the plot is /extremely/ complicated and convolunted added to my consistent /missing/ of episodes made watching a chore; eureka 7 i kind of miss but not enough to stay up 'til 1:00 to watch, and all the other series i've pretty much forgotten.
yeah.
/yeah/.
i guess the bottom line is i'm simply more likely to stick to a manga than to an anime.
something about freedom to read whenever i like. also, easy rewind!
:D
*loser*
yes.

started doing my history notes because i felt i shouldn't waste my whole weekend doing nothing. since i've been experimenting with cursive again, i thought it would be good practice to do my history notes in script.
man, if it weren't for the fact that my OCPD complex refuses to let me write in print now that half the page is already in incomprehensible loopy script, i'd have stopped long ago.
cursive takes up a lot more room than print, which i was expecting, but not quite to such an extent. this is possibly because i can't quite remember how to form all the letters so i extend the connections from letter to letter to give myself time to think. also, my spelling is shot to hell since half the time i forget if i'm writing an 'i', and 'e', a 't', or an 'l'. D:
plus my cursive just looks /fugly/. like, a single letter looks okay. /two/ letters look okay. in fact one whole word might look pretty on its own. but half a page? just looks ugly.
this maybe have to do with my own inconsistent hand but i'm pointedly ignoring that bit.

*rantrantrant*

yeah.

not much else to say.
goodnite.
