Today I met a bug.
He was maybe half an inch long, maybe a little bigger. He was dark gray/tan with shiny black legs and a tiny black head with two little black eyes. His antenna were long and black with black balls on the tips. He had those feathery-looking feet, you know, and he had a pretty good grip with them.
He had a mouth like the mouth of a boll weevil. In fact, I would call him a boll weevil except that he was the wrong shape. He had this teeny little head, and his abdomen and thorax were shaped like a beetle, a normal oval beetle. He didn't seem to have any wings though. I have no idea what he was but I'd like to find out.
Took the AP History test today. I almost cried when I saw the DBQ (Document Based Question, essentially one huge-ass essay). It was on 19th century reforms. One of the documents it encluded was the Constitution of Brook Farm. Utopian communes. I wrote my entire 20 page history paper on utopian communes. I think I cited the Brook Farm Constitution in there. You can have no concept of how happy I was. I know so much about that stuff. I put in all this extra information... it was intensely glorious.
The rest of the test wasn't exactly glorious, per se, but what can you do? I can only expect so many miracles in one test.
A Store24 just opened up right near my humble abode. I'm so excited! They've got all kinds of cat food, and coffee, and candy, and other such stimulants.
Tomorrow is the Muskrat Pond cleanup. Which I am going to. To get some extra points for physics. If I can figure out the times.
Zolo.
I have a very pointy dragon in my room. He is called 'the Blind and Wretched Dragon' because that is how he looks, blind and wretched. He is a present for my mother for Mother's Day. I kid you not. She'll love it.
All of a sudden most unaccountably tired.
Sigh. Sure could use some book shelf brackets. Or something serving the same purpose. You know.
Can't wait for May 15!!!!! Star Wars!!!! I don't care if it has a lame name like Attack of the Clones. It's Star Wars, for catssake! I must go see it.
I made a drawing of that aforementioned bug. It's a reasonable rendition. It wasn't in my bug book. I wonder where I could find out what he is?
Something feels oddly plastic.
feline anarchy for green democracies
Feline anarchists were not on the AP History test. Sadly. They certainly ought to have been.
The next ordeal? SAT IIs. Following that, finals. And then, the summer, the glorious freedom of summer.

I know I am, anyhow.
Alors. À tout à l'heure (to all of the hours?) (see you later?) before I fall asleep.
