Me and My Friend Bed

My body hurts. My body hurts in a way that is hard to describe. It's a complication of sleeplessness, the inability to control my motor skills, and working on my car all day yesterday. I gotta say though, that the work on my car was a liberating experience even though it did almost kill me. I wish I could say that I'm done, but not quite. Everything is put back together (I think). Now I just have to put fluid back in, crank it up, and pray that there are no leaks. In the midst of my mechanical struggle yesterday I did find something to be thankful for. It is quite nice indeed to have such skinny arms. When you have to reach through the narrow spaces under the hood of a car, nothing helps quite like two toothpick arms like mine.

I just got done with my morning classes. I was thinking about working on my car more before my evening class, but then I decided that... no... sleep is what I need most. I've stopped participating in philosophy class as much. There is alot that I would like to say, but you come to a place where you realize that opening your mouth is not benefiting anyone so you might as well keep it closed. It is discouraging to let some of the things he says go unchallenged, but if someone really wants to know what I think, they will ask me. Audio class has been good though. If it weren't so early I would have to say that it has become my most engaging class. Op amps, compression, gating, expanding, keying, chaining, serial and parallel. All of these are concepts that I now better understand. He did remind us today, however, that though we are becoming scientists in our fields, not to forget the often times neglected creative aspects of it. It is easy to do, I admit. You start thinking so much of the sciences and mechanics of an action that you forget its beauty.

Well... I'm going to take that nap I've been longing for. After that I will throw in some laundry, work on my car, go to business management and then maybe go to the store (if I did indeed fix my car). Peace and love.
