Still here...
Jun. 16th, 2003 01:06 am It is absolutely too hot here to get anything at all done during the day. psha on that. I want to get out of this hell.
Diane mentioned scarves today, and it reminded me of how many things I've lost since the school year began.
In the begining.... I was always seen wearing my trusty black pea coat, dark grey scarf, black navy surplus watchcap, my favorite sunglasses, keys on the chain, metal ballchain chokerthing, bikemobiling around and keeping track of time on my russian pocketwatch.
Of thise things, the only thing that remains now is the watchcap, but its far too hot to wear that.
Towards the end of the quarter my sunglasses were missplaced and I lost my previous spiked collar at a party (I have since bought a new one which I believe is moreorless identical). Early winter quarter my scarf mysteriously disappeared without a trace. Then all at one party (the day before I started this livejournal coincidentally) my peacoat, pocketwatch, and bike were stolen. Good times. Then of course after the fight last week my ballchain choker disappeared, and my key/chain is still in Nick's possession.
Of these things I think I miss my scarf the most, because it is the least replaceable, I've had it for yeeaars, it served me well throughout my Sweden adventures.. it was wonderful. I'm very very irritated likewise with the loss of the choker but I intend to buy an identical one ASAP when I get home. But that thing I've similarly had for years. And the pea coat I've finally grown desensitized to its loss but I certainly intend to get an identical one from the army/navy surplus store before next year begins.
Otherwise.. nothing new to report.. still stuck in this hellish place. I still can't turn knobs with my left hand or write for long with my right; and there are still major bruises on my right arm.
