What I Wish I Was Doing Right Now: Ceramics class. I want to trim my little bowl and cup and see what I can do with those silly bottles, and throw some more stuff on the wheel, and learn about glazes and hang out with Eric and have a good time.

 

What I’m Actually Doing Right Now: Lying on my bed with my laptop and an old saucepan with all the teflon peeling away, which has been reinforced with two plastic bags in case I suddenly unleash that omelet that’s currently attacking me from the inside, or the flu, or whatever it is.

 

And it was such a tasty omelet, too. It should not be making the data for my linguistics homework dance around like the numbers did for Russell Crowe in A Beautiful Mind.

 

Liz: (just returning home) Hello?

Amelia: Ungh.*

Liz: (peers into Amelia’s room) Your class … ?

Amelia: Omelet. Didn’t like me.  I have a bucket. (points)

Liz: Ewww. (flees)

Amelia: (shouting after her) Thanks for the sympathy!

Liz: It’s as much as you’d get from Emily.

 

It’s always nice to know that your friends care about you, isn’t it?

 

 

*Actually, the noises I make when I don’t feel good are weird little moaning humming noises. I got this from my mom. I’m not sure why, but it helps.
