I'm novelling in arm socks, because my hands are cold and I'm too dumb/lazy to just put on long sleeved pajamas. My arm socks were next to the computer.

Haven't updated in forever! The short form:

- Novel going well. Though I'm happy with it, I feel it is somewhat too mechanical and describey and not "warm" enough.
- Proposed essentially writing about slash for my 20 page Orientalism paper. Worded this academically enough so that Professor thought it was an interesting and fruitful idea to pursue.
- Have waaaaay too much candy surrounding my desk.
- Voted this evening.
- Other schoolwork generally under control

Have chocolate sent by Mum. Best kind to have.
