It's been a long, long day (In which I talk about my day, missing people, and bird shit)

And I am very glad that it's over.  But tomorrow is going to be yet another long day, and on and on, until Winter break.  I hope today is the longest, though.  I couldn't handle more days like this one.  Too much in one day.  Way too much.  And no time to think about it and catch my breath.  Ah well.

I really miss all of you in Kalamazoo right now.  It almost feels like my life here in Ann Arbor isn't real, like it's a weird dream or something, and there is no one I can truly rely on here.  That isn't true, of course, but it sometimes seems like it.  Or maybe it's like there is no one here that truly knows me, really, deeply.  I don't know.  All I know is that I miss Emily and Kiersten and Gwen and Abby and Aaron and my Dad and my Mom and everyone back home.  And my brothers.  I miss everyone, and I just want to relax and be refreshed.  I just want all of this to be over.  There is too much on my plate right now and I'm going insane.  Sometimes I wonder what it would be like to be crazy.  Would you know that you are crazy?  I don't know.  I think it might almost be a relief sometimes.  These are the same times when I wish I were a cat sleeping in the sun, or a dog barking as squirrels.  Side note about squirrels:  the Ann Arbor squirrels aren't the scariest/most annoying animals on campus (not that I think that they are scary or annoying).  No.  It's the crows.  There are hundreds of them, maybe even a thousand.  And they roost in the trees at night, and the quantity of bird shit (I would say crap, but the quantity and quality of it quantifies it as shit) that ends up on the sidewalk is astronomical.  If you walk by one of their trees at night you will here the splatting of it on the pavement.  It is so disgusting and I hate the crows so much.

I could keep rambling on and on about everything, but I am literally exhausted, and so am going to go to bed now.  Goodnight.  I love you all.
