summer etc.

i forgot i created this last last april. had a desire to begin writing again and decided to make the full switch from xanga.

gorgeous.

for now, some thoughts:

i can say with relative certainty that i've never before wanted so badly for summer to come, and with it a chance to begin planning for next year with the volumes of knowledge i've acquired this year. for the past two months, i've had a recurring (3-4 times a week) dream involving me, several books/notebooks, a little lake house in maine, and a severe sunburn. the summation of which i quite enjoy.

i have yet to discover my proper coffee/sleep ratio; that is, the amount of coffee i should drink in relation to the number of hours i slept the previous night. regardless of how much i've slept, one cup is always necessary; however, what if i don't sleep the recommended eight hours? is the equation linear or hyperbolic? and what if i've slept more than eight hours? i've noticed my coffee requirement is greater if i sleep longer than usual (the whole "too much" sleep thing). is there a quality of sleep variable as well? really, i wouldn't be all that worried about it if drinking too much didn't make me so edgy. like right now.

my nea credit card has a joyful and culturally diverse assortment of children on it. this suggests to me that using it is helping "the kids," which it is not. i must remember this truth when making minor purchases, lest i unnecessarily accumulate large amounts of debt in the name of an inexistent cause.

that's all for now.
