Ответьте на вопросы.
1. Вы живёте далеко или недалеко от университета? Я живу недалеко от университета.
2. Вы живёте далеко или недалеко от университетской библиотеки? Я не знаю. Я думаю, недалеко от университетской библиотеки.
3. Что находится справа от университетской библиотеки? ... Я не знаю...

Screw it, most of these questions assume you're at a University and I'm too frazzled to deal.



Oogh. Well, Mentalist last night gave me a whopper of a headache. And we got the biggest infodump ever about Jane's wife and family. We got more information out of last night's episode than we have in two seasons of the show. Which probably means that after that they're going to not tell us anything more for at least a while, maybe not for the rest of the season. But it still left my brain fairly scrambled. And we're trying to make hotel reservations for D*Con. Or rather, the boy is. I can handle the rest of the arrangements, but I can't stand waiting on hold and navigating shittons of websites as everyone zerg-rushes the hotel. And, really, why the Zerg Rush? Dragon Con is on FOUR hotels. Possibly FIVE. No one needs to zerg rush the ONE hotel.

My spinning wheel is happily settled in the craft room. There may be pictures later today. I'm debating whether or not I actually want to go out tonight and do stuff in a social manner with people who may or may not be people I'd like, or whether I just want to go home and sleep. Or rest, or both. What with no Human Target, though, there's nothing really saying I have to go home and watch it now, or rest there. Being social is different from the energy I've been using. On the other other hand, god right now I just want to sleep.

Maybe I'll see what happens during the day. I need to catch up on writing projects. and I need to put the crafting, apart from the mental floss, on hold at least for next week. So much catch up. So much sleep I need. Not happening right now. Soon, though. Soon.
