The word “Bleargh” sums up how I felt upon getting back to the TWP yesterday. I had dropped off my proof that I no longer owed money to MSU. I had picked up my new address (which will be going out to you peoples soon enough), move-in date (November 26th), and move-in cost amount. That put me on cloud nine.

And then traffic. I-94. I-275. I-696. TRAFFIC TRAFFIC TRAFFIC. This gave me quite a headache. So, I came home and scrounged for dinner. I found quite a few nummy things and snacked on peanuts. More on the peanuts later.

I put laundry in, and plopped down on the couch. There was no staring at a computer screen to type in Chapter 6 for me. My skull would have shattered and my brain would have oozed out of the cracks. So, I watched programs like West Wing. I really, really should watch that show on a regular basis. The dynamics of job vs. ideal vs. politics is just amazing to watch. I should watch it more regularly.

I missed going to the club, but even the music wouldn’t have helped my headache. So, I popped some Advil and went to sleep. Twice now, I’ve snacked on peanuts in the evening and had severe acid reflux in the middle of the night. Clearly peanut oil is not a friend of my stomach.

Anyway, letters have been written today and bills have been paid. It’s a good day so far.
