11/19: "Or what if you just shattered the gun on the edge of the table and STABBED them with it?"

Plenty of good things have gone on in the past month, but I'm not even going to attempt to catalogue them all. But here are some extra-special things that happened today:

-Chicken tenders, my secret weakness, made an appearance in the dining hall. I ate six, and I'm not even kidding.

-At registration, everything fell into place, which gave me hope after a term of mediocre classes and even more mediocre performances in said classes (today Carol Pal pointed a witchy finger at me and yelled "M.I.A.!", which really attests to her being fantastic more than anything.)

-I went to my trans therapist lady, and it looks like she might be coming around to writing me a perscription for man-juice sooner rather than later. I think it's because I told her that I would be thrilled to have a receeding hairline, which is actually true, oddly enough. Also, Hannah Torkelson was in the van when I got a ride back, so I got to blather with her about senior reviews instead of having my weekly awkward post-therapy chat with Bill the Van Driver (I think he thinks I go for physical therapy for my ankle; he keeps saying things like, "So, can you kick a field goal yet? Har har!" I usually say, "Looks like I'm benched for the season.")

-I spent all evening being more of a geek than usual about internet testosterone research instead of writing my M.I.A. paper for Ms. Pal (it's actually about Martin Guerre, not M.I.A.)

-Nedjo demanded via facebook that I start blogging again. I didn't even think he remembered who I was, not to mention that he read this old thing. These days I smoke alone in front of VAPA, and I miss your monotone complaints about the stupid bitches in your playwriting class, old friend. Hats off!

Now perhaps I'll think about that paper.
