the worst part about living in a dorm...
(besides very thin walls and too much noise and broken appliances and cold showers and gross dishes in the lounge and everything else that I hate with a passion) is being in close proximity to so many germs.
Tracy and I are sick. It sucks because it's the kind of sick that doesn't make us feel bad enough to skip class, but it makes us sound bad enough to cause our friends to wonder if we've been sneaking three packs of cigarettes a day. I'm talking serious gross raspy coughs. We both went to the Health Center hoping that someone would give us a miracle cure, but instead we both got $40 bills and advice that our mothers could have told us. gahhhhhhh.
I'm especially bitter about being sick right now because it's Holy Week and I want to be able to sing the Easter hymns. I know I'm lame.

the joys of working for the federal government
Today I overheard this conversation between two of my coworkers:
Coworker 1: Hey, man. So I kind of underestimated the secrecy of that document I sent you.
Coworker 2: Oh, yeah? So how secret is it exactly?
Coworker 1: Like, super. It is super secret.
Coworker 2: Ummm...okay then, that might be a problem.

things i have done so far at my internship today
- drank 3 cups of black coffee (because the kitchen is out of sugar, and also because I'm trying to be a little bit more of a badass)
- made an appointment at the Health Center to get some drugs for my myseterious illness
- listened to every single Belle & Sebastian song on my iPod (and if you have any sense of my music library, you should know that this is no small feat)
- familiarized myself with my Facebook newsfeed
- brushed my hair
- calculated the amount of menthol that would be in my system if I finished my entire bag of cough drops
- daydreamed about the summer
- considered the fact that I should probably be more productive before I get fired

how to tell when something comes from costco.
The nutrition label on my bag of milk chocolate M&Ms reads as follows:
Calories: 280
Serving size: 1.5 oz or 1/4 cup
Servings per container: 38
Thanks, Costco. I love you for fulfilling all of my chocolately needs for weeks to come.
