Temporal issues

To quote one of my classmates, "Having a day that's a Monday, a Tuesday, and a Wednesday all at the same time is too much."

Today is, by the calendars at large, a Wednesday. It feels like a Tuesday because we didn't have school on Monday. It is a conventional Monday because the all-mighty deans have decided that today's going to follow Monday's academic schedule. Somewhere between all this my sense of time would've gotten confused if it weren't for the fact that the only difference between my Monday schedule and my Wednesday schedule is an extra bio discussion on Wednesday-- which the teacher have moved to today, an academic Monday, because it's still Wednesday (try saying THAT to the next innocent passerby). Therefore it REALLY feels like a Monday to me-- if it weren't for the fact that yesterday there was an FFO meeting so I was at school for slightly over twelve hours, and my brain can most definitely register THAT.

In response to one of the info cards I've filled out at the meeting, I've received the reply that Rose's officially recorded birthday is on June 5th, 06, which makes her approximately 7 month and 12 days old.

"You're approximately 7 month and 12 days old, Rose," I said to her at the time, since she's sitting by my feet.

"Eek," said Rose.

There are times where she is quite unbelievably eloquent.

Now-- onwards to physics, o-chem, and all things preternatural.
