1. There’s a fly. It’s <——————- that way. 

2. I’ve been reading Brian Greene’s newest book on theoretical physics. I think he set out to write a book that would make the reader feel the most insignificant. (Within the first twenty pages he’s arguing there are infinite copies of you out there. Drink up!) I can’t remember the title at the moment, but I’m sure it’s something like This Elegant Pointlessness. 

3. The fly stopped buzzing. 

4. I don’t know why I am writing this as a numbered list. 

5. My snake is super cute. Check out this facebook post I got from one of my former University of Florida students who has since moved to Alaska: 

“So, Lola (her ball python) was FedEx-ed overnight to Alaska from Chicago last week. I don’t even think she knows what hit her, in a good way. She will, however, not be pleased to find that rats are illegal in Anchorage (we’re a rat-free port city, and they do not cater to the needs of pythons).” 

6. Health food kick: Bananas. Aronia berry juice. Brazil nuts. Raw pumpkin seeds. Raw sunflower kernels. Blueberries. Organic yoghurt. 

7. Junk food kick: Jalapeno Kettle chips. Molly’s Peach Cobbler Cupcakes. Altoids Liquorice mints. Newman’s Own Ginger O’s. 

8. Can’t wait until the election is over so that I can get my life back.
