Last post, then I sleep.

Basically, my day was boring. So boring that I want to tell youse about it and infect you with the boredom!

I got up. I rejoiced, for lo, the internet was working again. I went online. I contemplated my addiction. I went to class. I got all my late-adds. I played super mario world - and killed several castle bosses. I'm now stuck on the Chocolate Island ghost house.

Oh, and I am doing a project of some sort for my women's studies class. I managed to cadge myself a cushy assignment of "women in sci-fi" by using the completely reasonable argument that, due to my very good hearing, I'd be completely and totally unable to participate in a group project. Sheesh, forget about being able to understand everybody else in that setting, I was ready to run screaming from the room it was so LOUD.

And now I'm not sure what to focus on. Women sci-fi authors? Women in sci-fi through the ages, from classic sci-fi to today? Women in fanfic (much of which seems to be sci-fi or fantasy based, and anyway the prof wouldn't know otherwise)? Maybe I can expand slightly. Feminist themes (including gay themes, etc.) in sci-fi? Or fanfic? All that slash has got to indicate something!

Help!

Um, help later. Now I sleep.

Oh, I know that feeling. Just today we split into groups in history. We didn't even separate, just kind of gravitated toward one another within the larger mass. I could hear everyone talking, but damned if I understood a word of it.

Why is it so hard for others to understand that often they can come up to me and say something, and I'll hear them and know they're talking to me, but I still can't understand a word they're saying?
