Welcome to the year 11111011000

Woke up today with a bloody nose.

I don't usually get bloody noses.

Anyway, so, first post of the new year. First post from school. First post in a long time, etc. I've been learning a lot about aliens recently. My mind has been concentrated on extraterrestrial intelligence and the Drake equation. How foolish of us.

In fact, I may have never gotten a bloody nose before today.

I've been trying to find some time to read some novels lately. I got about 7 or 8 free books from my parents' friend in New York who owns a bookstore. Kurt Vonnegut, Jack Kerouac, Nelson Algren...some really good stuff, but I can never find the time. But that's really probably just what I tell myself. I really probably have a lot of time on my hands. Maybe I just don't use it efficiently.

Actually, I'm pretty sure I got at least one or two before.

I think it's the political season. I think I need to go get some tea. It's the only healthy thing I can do for myself anymore.
