ok. i tried posting saturday, but failed profoundly when blogger ate my post. so here i go again. i thought i had a lot to say. perhaps not. i've spent most of the past week ill. freshers' flu. no fun. and then i gave it to jack. he got even sicker than i did. whoops. what am i doing?

i hung out with my friend joe figini over the weekend, friday in oxford and saturday in london. good times. he took me out for high tea. at some swanky hotel. £40 each. everything in this country is so expensive. i asked jack if that's because the island is just so small. he laughed at me.

i just realized that i can fly to milan for a weekend for £40. hmmm. tea or milan? that said, having tea was the first time i've been full since i got to this country. all i want right now is a burrito from la sirenita. mmmmm. michelle, can you be my proxy on this one? oh, also: i might be in portland in december or january. more details to come.

i had an entirely unproductive weekend. but i did a lot of work yesterday, and i plan to do a lot today, as well, as soon as i get my lazy butt to the library. i'm slowly becoming reaccustomed to life as a student. slowly. but that's fine. i have 3 years to do this thang.

i'm absolutely certain that there are other fun things to tell y'all. but i'm drawing a blank. i'm doing well. i'm a little homesick/mac house-sick/dc-sick. which i guess just goes to show that i'll never be satisfied anywhere. i go home in less than 6 weeks. i'm very excited for christmas time. especially here. i feel like christ church will do advent justice. hurrah. crazy anglicans.

ok. off to la biblioteca. to quote tupac, "keep your head up, legs closed, eyes open."
