DR. FEELGOOD
So it's my first night working in the Creative Writing lounge and I'm listening to Aretha Franklin pumped all the way up. I don't know why, but Aretha always seems like the kind of thing that a hard-working gal like myself should listen to at night when kicking up her feet. It's kind of putting-on-pajamas-and making grilled cheese sandwiches music, you know? It's been a rough first few weeks of school so far, just because of some of the uncertainty regarding my schedule, but I consider that to be pretty normal.

In other news, I love my house. My housemates are so fucking awesome. Our Labor Day cook-out pretty much happened without tragedy or major failure of any kind (except for that moment when I spilled mango juice all over myself and the rest of the kitchen, but whatevs). I don't know how it is that I find myself so happily connected to so many friends, but it's great.
