beware of sappiness

[intertribal]

i wasn't feeling sappy until I listened to this song: "Love Song" by 311.  Somebody needs to make a G/CC amv to this.  Or we can just wait until Ilium becomes a big franchise, and then crazy fans will be able to dedicate it to Acmon and Andromache.  Ha ha.  I hope everyone knows I'm being sarcastic and not egotistical.

whenever I'm alone with you
you make me feel like I am home again
whenever I'm alone with you
you make me feel like I am whole again

whenever I'm alone with you
you make me feel like I am young again
whenever I'm alone with you
you make me feel like I am fun again

however far away
I will always love you
however long I stay
I will always love you
whatever words I say
I will always love you, I will always love you

whenever I'm alone with you
you make me feel like I am free again
whenever I'm alone with you
you make me feel like I am clean again

however far away
I will always love you
however long I stay
I will always love you
whatever words I say
I will always love you, I will always love you

so I woke up at 5 p.m. today.  My head feels like a swollen balloon.  I'm eating Ramen noodles.  I just sneezed all over my laptop monitor.  Last night I tossed and turned, coughing and hacking and unable to sleep, and then I finally went to sleep under the pretense that all I had to do was "answer" the "questions" that my "head" would "ask" me.  In other words, I was fucking delirious.  I am still pretty delirious, but all my suitemates except for the One who is Silent are out to dinner.  Early Bird actually showed compassion for me today - perhaps because she saw that I was putting dishes away - and invited me to go.  No such luck with Grendel's Mother, of course. 

So the plan for the rest of the night is to write Ilium.  I'd like to at least get to the part where Acmon is sent off to find Andromache.  I can't believe how good I am at drawing things out.
