so sleeeeeeeeeeeepy.....

but the neighbor's still up, so there's no point in going to bed. admittedly, i'm a very light sleeper, and it takes me forever to fall asleep, so what would be barely noticeable noise to anyone else sounds very loud to me, but still. it's 1:15am... shouldn't he be in bed already? *sigh*

so tomorrow, the grand adventure begins... the end of my root canal starts at 2:30, then i get the car for a week. it's like a consolation prize: here, put up with the pain and you get a cookie... a very shiny, gas-guzzling cookie...

i'm barely coherent, so i'll shut up now and go finish reading Augustus' Res Gestae... gods, but that man was arrogant. no idea of modesty or humility; yes, he may have done a lot for Rome, but gods, he must have been unbearable to be around for long periods of time. "Have i told you about the time i..." "yes, 5 times. now shut up."

like i said, incoherent. =)

5 happiest memories

something to keep me occupied while i can't sleep...

( 5 most pleasant memories )

snow.

i love snow. my car, on the other hand, isn't so tolerant. *sigh* i'm emotionally exhausted, as i always am after a trip to the dentist. no matter how many times they tell me it'll be quick and painless, it never is. and given my ability to wind myself up so tight with tension that i eventually snap, it's not a cymry-friendly experience. so, my 3rd root-canal related visit is over. only one more to go (then again, that's what i said after all the previous ones, too). they spent 2 hours taking molds of my teeth. now, this SOUNDS like a painless, if boring, process. unfortunately, it also involves keeping your mouth propped open for 2 hours, and having a tiny-LOOKING piece of metallic string placed between your tooth and the gums, then SHOVED IN with the pointy metal poker of demon spawn. then, of course, there's a second string, to push the first one further in. painless, he says. *thwacks head against desk* i feel like i've been beaten with a dull wooden spoon for hours...

on the plus side, my dentist is still worth the hassle of being all the way on the south shore. i got to watch Harry Potter 1 as he was doing all this to me... it was even in english this time, as the kid in the next room didn't speak french. yay for distractions...

i have an exam on thursday morning i should really be studying for. i can't seem to concentrate, though. i'm too wrung out. but i'm going out tomorrow nite, so i shoudl be studying. it's a vicious, vicious circle. i can't win.
