I certainly hope this weekend goes much differently than last. That was...out of character for me. I didn't accomplish anything, and I managed to ruin the lovely tea cozy I was knitting for my mother. Feeding ducks does not take precedence over studying.
Jack...I believe I have something that belongs to you? I wore it all weekend, even slept in it, and I don't know why I enjoyed that so much.

My marathon went pretty well. I did really good time, came in at the front somewhere. Classes are getting back to normal.
I'm running a weight lifting class at 7 pm on Wednesdays and Fridays if anyone wants to sign up. It's not exactly a class class, more like just some training and instruction. No fees or anything. It's for everyone though, men and women, beginner and intermediate. Should be fun.
Think I might be getting a cold though. Don't know why I always get them in spring. Hopefully it's just allergies.

You are all lucky you're not freshman poetry students in my class, unless you are a freshman in my poetry class. I'm having everyone memorize a poem of their choice. Any school, style, tradition, so long as it is at least 50 lines long. You should hear the groans! Yes, it is old-fashioned, but necessary. After so many readings and recitations, even the least poetic student can hear the music in the words. You understand why the author arranged them in the way they did. It's amazing! I tell them. 'Ugghh,' they say. But the recitation isn't even the worst part. Each student must pass out copies of their poem to the class. A selection from ten of the poems will be chosen and put on a quiz where the author and title must be identified. 'UUUGGGHHHHH,' they say. And in my heart, I laugh.
It's a fun game! They'll see that. So! Another game:
Post a line (or several) from five different songs. If someone guesses one of the songs (title and artist!), they will challenge you with another five lyrics. If you are stumped, you lose! If you stump, you win! The game is not fun if you try to pick songs that no one could possibly know the lyrics to. It is about the back and forth!

Is there anything more fantastic than having a culinary adventure? I can't think there is, and thankfully I get to experience one myself soon. I've been testing out various recipes to put the infinity chillis that I'll be working with to their best use, and so far this chili topped with cornbread has gone over quite well in my Nutrition and Sensory Evaluation class with many of my fellow students saying the texture and taste combinations meld to form quite the intense experience in ones' mouth.
I honestly can't wait, and I hope it all turns out well.
Also, I got some lovely zucchini at the market today, and tried out a fantastic recipe for garlic bread style zucchini. I cut the zucchini lengthwise, covered it in butter, garlic, and Parmesan cheese, then baked it in the oven until it was all warm and soft. It made for a good dinner.

[Spencer has been nothing but reluctant to start posting in the community. Her whole existence thus far has been based solely around avoiding people, or shoving people away from her. She would rather not be doing this in the first place, but her aunt has been pressuring her from home to start finding connections. People 'like her', as if there are other three-headed, fire-breathing beasts just wandering around campus. Nevertheless, she's going to try. She has to. She has convinced herself that she at least needs to put a message up, and if it goes unnoticed, well, good. She'd be fine with that. That way, she could tell her aunt she tried, and people just didn't seem like they wanted to talk to her.
It takes her a while to come up with anything. She settles with something meaningless.]
Hi. I'm Spencer. I know it's a boy's name, shut the fuck up.

This fucking weekend has been shit. If people are gonna have bar fights then there damn well better be some chairs smashed over people's heads. Honestly, one punch in the nose and this fucking guy automatically went into the fetal position and started bawling.
Going to sleep off the disappointment of not being completely and utterly pissed and then tomorrow I'm just staying in bed and watching violent movies. Anyone have recommendations for violent revenge flicks? I was going to watch Oldboy on Instant Watch but it's dubbed, so fuck that noise.
