i have to work on my birthday. it is sad. that is if i survive until tomorrow, because i think i might be dying. or i just have what ever infection is going around. i really didn't want to miss school today, what with cupcakes and all, but it was probably for the best. the hurricane katrina stuff is so horribly depressing. i want to do more than put my spare change in a jar. i can't believe how unaware i was of everything that was going on until i watched cnn today. anyway. the new death cab cd is amazing. so is the new(ish) motion city soundtrack. uhh, my brain hurts.
