Oh my god, they caught the kraken (those bastards!)

Okay, not really, but that is still one big-ass squid. I wish it inky peace and much scientific squeeing.

Also, I've been listening to this song on repeat for about a day now, and it has not ceased to be awesome in the slightest.

And I went to bed feeling pre-emptively awful, and had a horrible time trying to sleep, and skipped class this morning, and now I still feel awful. I don't feel sick actually, but...like I've already been sick? I don't know, but my throat is all wonky. I called the provost this morning to ask questions about the scholarship application, and I was so inarticulate it was embarrassing -- all "The thing and...you know...the stuff?" I just feel so out of it.

Sigh. I'm going to skip work, even though DAMN do I need that money, and go back to bed. After I drink my tea -- the horror, yes, but I'm hoping it will help my throat -- and take the Airborne Laura gave me.
