.. oh, excellent(, in that nonexcellent way);
I was to bus out with the glee club at 7am,
but i .. accidentally fell asleep.
(i had meant only to sleep on the bus.)
(and so i hadn't set an alarm.)
okay, so-
in a certain sense, i'm ... not worried about my musical contribution,
since this was going to be a megahundreds-of-people mass-performance,
but i feel nauseated at the thought of facing folk now.
there's a message in my voicemail asking at 7am15 why I'm not at the bus1.
And I can't call back, because they're in rehearsal now,
so that might cause evil-phone-ringings, and. fuck, I don't know.
1 I turned my phone off around mid-day yesterday because it was running low on battery power, and then I hadn't turned it back on when I plugged it into the charger. end effect: it was charging and powered, but it was not receiving calls. (not that a wake-up call at 7am15 would have done me any good anyway.)
yeah. so. as a postscript, I feel irrationally afraid to leave my room. I feel like I shouldn't be here, that it's some crime that i'm on campus, that i'll be unsafe if i so much as unlock my door. because i'm clever and logical like that, and because that clearly makes a lot of sense. ech. i'm going to try to go to lunch.

How is your Germanic Linguistics prelim going? After a few hours of attacking mine without making notable progress, I'm reaching the conclusion that I really only have about one-eighth-of-an-idea what I'm doing on most things, but then again, I don't think I was ever under the illusion that I was going to do any better than that, anyway. ech. Historical linguistics has all the idiosyncratic, arbitrary fuzziness- ("Fooled you! If it looks like a class 1 weak verb, then it's definitely not a class 1 weak verb!")- of history, economics, and the humanities in general, except that the BS-friendly "there are no wrong answers" safety net does not apply. gah.
Well,.. It's a bit past 7:00 now, so I guess I should, uh, .. ee, sickpanics.

I'm too scared to start attacking it, honestly, because I know it'll send me into total panic mode and ohmygoshifailatlife. If you only have 1/8 of an idea what you're doing, then I'll wager that I have about 1/13 of one.
*cries* But thank you for reminding me that I have to do it sooner or later.

Anyway, collectively, that's, like, 21/104ths of an idea.. That's slightly more than 1/5th!. Of course, prelims don't really go over well (or, uh, at all) as collaborative efforts, so that's a moot point. le sigh.
