I love insomnia. This is all because of that nice nap I had last night.

I put this useful time to work... ordered some zines, because yay Pander is open again. Though the length of the vacation this year is perfectly understandable. I'd initially selected something like $65 worth of stuff, but I scaled it back a little. To 20 zines.

Read my grandmother's obituary, written by my uncle, who forgot and left me out of it, among all my cousins (half of whom are his kids)... it hasn't been published or submitted or anything yet, so I just dropped him a line pointing out the omission.

I need to write a paper for my Philosophy course from last semester... none of my topics have panned out so far, in terms of research, so I'm thinking of writing about Hume. Yes, I got an extension on the paper, I have until December to finish it. Two-hundred printed-out pages trying to justify 2000 words comparing Platonic philosophy to Pure Land Buddhism, and I just don't think I'm going to be able to put it together. So, Hume. Now I just need to think of things to say other than "Hume is THE MAN." (My mom would never let me take religion or philosophy classes when I was in high school because she was afraid I would be pulled off the path of xianity... which I wasn't ON to begin with, but never mind that. I can now say that I at least see her point in that I think Hume could make an atheist or at least a very heavy agnostic out of most rational people.)

ooooh, we both need to write papers from semesters past, it seems.

let's set up a little timeline or something.

that would involve actual work, though.

i need to write to my professor instructor to make sure my topic change is OK. i also need to take a big test for another prof instructor, which i should really do first.
