Music: Calibretto 13 - High 5 (song really reminds me of my friends :P)

Things are moving along nicely with my French Anti-Semitism book. It has seven parts and I have seven days to complete it....but I need to find time to write a report on it in there too....okay so maybe things aren't moving along quite as nicely as I'd thought they were....
Okay now I'm trying to figure out why I'm in such a good mood....
My hair is a total mess. I have ass-loads of work. And I just ate about a third of a wedge of brie, something I know I'm going to regret later.
Maybe I'm in such a good mood because of the weather. It's so nice out! Granted, it's not that sunny now, but it was, and there is a wonderful warm breeze. I can't wait to go to the grocery store, even if I'll only be outside for the walk from the car to the store :P
I'll be back in a bit!

Day shot all to hell.
Grocery store was fine. I got in and out quickly. Got everything I wanted. But now I wish I had taken even less time.
Matty's off to Iraq. Plane takes off at 4.
I tried his cell, but the voicemail picked up immediately. So I tried his home line, and his sister told me I'd just missed him.
This really brings me down, but I know that I said goodbye and he knows that we all wish him well. Goodbye had to start some time, right? And besides. Now we can count down to when he comes back.
In other news, that brie finally kicked in. I now feel like I have five or six lead weights in my belly.
