I am bored. But I think I am going to read a book or maybe I'll watch a movie.

Last night I skipped a HS reunion and a friend's family Christmas party, and today I missed my familys and my girlfriends. Boo strep throat.

just ate roast chicken and gravy for breakfast... mmm! feeling happy :) had weird food-based dream: was making tortilla soup in the snow outside, somehow the tortillas were all really warm despite being in the snow... yeah and someone in my head was telling me the secret to a good tortilla soup is to have ham and peas in the soup base and tortillas in the middle of the bowl... I have never made tortilla soup in real life.

I amazed myself today. First, slept for 17.5 hours, had a bath, shave, cleaned the dishes, cooked, ate, cleaned the dishes again!

Rest has been the same day(night, actually) as usual.

Interesting - we made chicken tortilla soup yesterday evening. :biggrin: Causality?
