it's a good thing I copied this to the clipboard, because lj ate it. for the second time:

what the hell is going on with lj right now? the colours! are... are... the bland colours of defaultiness! what happened to my black?! *sobs*

um. yes. anyway.

Fifty-five, if I counted right and I can trust my memory.

Had second exam today, was a reasonable exam but I hadn't learned enough for it but I think I still passed, which is good.

Oh, oh, oh... the book I meant to mention in the first place.

On The Road. I got drunk on that book, on the writing and the story and the people. Seriously. I read it one day and spent the rest of the week wandering around in a daze. Drunk on it.

I do that with poetry, sometimes. I got a book of poetry for my birthday - A Responsibility to Awe, by Rebecca Elson - and I was just out of it for days on end. Fantastic.

OK, really stopping this time.
