E-word,

I hear you on the morbid fascination. Remember a few years back when those snipers were going apeshit in the metro area? Those guys were killing people on same route as my commute. I actually saw the bullet hole that went through this woman's head into the glass of the restaurant in front of which she was sitting. I felt very ashamed after I went out of my way to see this bullet hole, but yeah, I defintely felt that fascination.

Yeah, you did live in the DC area during the crack thing, didn't you? Oy.

So I've been preoccupied with this take-home midterm for the last week or so. It was a pretty big exam, which is expected from take-home exams, I guess. Going to school hasn't been so bad, but when I think of the eight more classes I have to take, it tires me out. Slow and steady wins the race, I'm still shooting for three years.

Life hasn't been terribly interesting recently. I have started taking ginseng on a regular basis. El, concerned with my lack of energy, chatted with her mom who recommended that I take Korean red ginseng. It has apparently worked for me, though I'm noting that it makes me a bit agitated, especially immediately after taking it.

Well, that's it. It's sunny and warmer out here at G*, I'm so glad I can see the sky from my desk.
