The workload has definitely subsided, at last, but now a worse fate has occured-- I'm terribly bored and also despondent; a lot of people are playing frisbee or hibernating or something. I lost my notebook, which makes me not happy and helps set the negative mood. On top of it all, I'm almost at the halfway point and its been totally, totally gross so far, except for the occasional cool person and mealtimes. How sad indeed. You can feel the blah.
