I had a dream that wasn't a nightmare but was still unnecessarily stressful, because my father was a key player in it and I was at an airport, getting ready to board a plane. Now it's five a.m. and I'm awake but I don't want to go back to sleep because what if the dream is still there, waiting and it feels like I haven't slept all week. Papergate isn't even halfway done, either. The icing on the cake is this massive headache I went to bed with last night that hasn't gone away.

General to-do list for the rest of the week:

• Finish POLI 1F90 paper, edit it, format it, upload it to turnitin.com, print it all out — all before Friday.


• E-mail brockpress about my job application.


• Send out a few more job applications; read over BUSU founding principles and guidelines.


• Tidy up room.


• Do laundry.


• Try to get as much reading done as possible.


• Go to Shopper's, buy a new face cleanser. Also cupcakes. But you can't get those as Shopper's.


• Go see a movie...?

I am stupidly hungry. And my face hurts. And Daylight Savings has been a real pain in my ass this time around. I can't fall asleep until midnight most nights now, but I'm still up at six a.m. Papergate is soundly eating me right now, as I fully expected it should, but I'm down to four! Once Friday is over, I'll be able to relax some. Maybe. Ideally.

I am really craving cupcakes right now.
