I like this holiday

SPAIN: BOOK AND LOVERS' DAY

This celebration in Barcelona is Spain's version of Valentine's Day. It celebrates St. George's Day and the anniversary of the death of Spanish writer Miguel de Cervantes. Bookstands are set up in plazas and on street corners. Women give books to their lovers while men give roses to the women.

More about Miguel de Cervantes and more about his works & life.

nightmare

This afternoon I fell asleep, something I should remember not to do during the day. I had this nightmare that was oddly familiar. When I woke up I was so tense I couldn't stand up stright. It took me a few moments to realize just my muscles were tight, and that I wasn't dying of some terrible gastro-intestinal problem. *sigh*

Lita Ford is on MTV2. I don't think I've seen this video since I was eight years old.

I already miss the silences of my first home. It's odd to hear people moving around the apartment.

Time to go put together my package for Erin and study for government. I'm rather behind on that reading. Maybe I'll eat an orange first.
