Sep. 21st, 2005 11:44 pmI woke up this morning feeling absolutely cruddy, but I managed to improve throughout the day. I skipped my morning classes, attended my afternoon classes but felt like I was going to diz out, and was fine by the time I'd finished dinner. I'm guessing it was a 24 hour bug.
In Religion today, we were discussing images of prostitutes in the Old Testament. Basically, Rahab and Tamar. I found it interesting that one girl was willing to bend over backwards to figure out a way to make Judah not at fault in Tamar's story, and then said that she couldn't accept Tamar's actions as someone taking desperate steps to relieve a potentially really bad situation. This girl just does not get it. And then I thought, somewhere, someone is thinking the same thing about one of my statements/ideas.
I finally got around to doing laundry today, which is something I've been meaning to do since Sunday. And I did a few simple repairs, sewing on a hook for one of my skirts, taking out a hem in a few pairs of pants that have evidently shrunk since Mom hemmed them. I swear, when she hemmed them, I couldn't walk in the pants, they were too long. Then I get here, and they become highwaters, and when I take out the hem I'm not tripping on them. And I don't think it's the washing/drying machines, as I know how to use them correctly. Just one of the mysteries of the universe.
Medieval society was great, and my friend looked like she was over the moon to hear about Mom and Dad's offer of floor space to crash on over October break. No paying the money for a hotel.
And I'm stealing this quiz from my flist, specifically
jediravenclaw and
ljmckay. For once, you beat me to a quiz LJ! And I won't mind your results if you don't mind mine.
