Finals Season.

I have so much work to do, it's overwhelming to the point of paralysis. And of course, I am still sick. I'd probably get better if I got more sleep.

The sore throat is cool, but the fluid in my ears has been bothering me.

I doubt anyone needed to know that.

Tonight I went to a super pretentious poetry reading, and unfortunately missed the Q&A because I was on the phone with Mom. I wanted to ask, "Why is retaliation mauve?" (It must've been gay or something. Ha.)

Then later was Take Back The Night. It was good, but I liked the vigil thing in the Surrey better than the sharing in Wilson Chapel. The chapel is too large, not intimate enough for sharing these things. It's a tall space, designed to inspire some awe. Not cozy enough for something that usually requires boxes of tissues.

They had so much amazing chametz to eat at the reading and at Take Back The Night. It was hard not to eat it. I also heard that last night in Senate, Becky ordered pizza, incurring the wrath of Jewish senators. So, I've started a new facebook group for students keeping Passover at Skidmore: http://skidmore.thefacebook.com/group_profile.php?gid=1204

Check out the logo pic. I took it in the d-hall yesterday. Treyfest picture ever. I swear there were noodles floating in the matzah ball soup.
