it's a good day because unlike every other day that rains, i didn't get caught in the rain today. and i've found a housemate. ok, no i didn't. joel found me a housemate. :D which is a relief, of course, because my mum msged me today and told me that she thought of moving me back to the hellhole taylor's hostel i lived in during my trinity year. admittedly, it wasn't that bad. it wasn't disgustingly old or anything..in fact it's quite a nice place...just not..you know...very...homely.... good grief...what was she even thinking?! i got a few cards from different continents too. i've decided that snail mail does wonders to the mood. AND (yes! there's more!) i got myself a new vacuum cleaner that doesnt smell like a dog! i know, it's really strange.. but my old vacuum cleaner smells like a dog - even after cleaning out the dust bag. my new vacuum cleaner was in a box that was so loooong it was almost half my height (i'm slightly challenged vertically remember). now, that deemed me blind and hazardous. but i made it home in one piece and sofi didn't need to carry any vacuum cleaners OR injury-prone-su's back to my home ... plus i've got extremely clean carpet in the living room now. oh, too many good things in one day. it's beginning to sound a little suspicious to me! murphy should just stop lurking around and come on right out from his little corner. i'm having this really silly dilemma at the moment. i need to write a report. but i'm also very sleepy. i want to take a nap before doing it because the brain's not functioning. but i also know that by the time i wake up to do it...i'll need to go to bed again - or i'll fall asleep in church. i know it doesn't sound like much (in fact it sounds pretty dumb) but i really am thinking very hard about it. i think i'm going crazy. yea, you probably think so too.
