I/we/you get to ____________.

My pet phrase of the past few days...
uses include:

We get to hunting? (before Vampire Hunter D at our Halloween screening)
We get to shopping
I get to studying...

Alas, the 'you get to burning' has been somewhat lacking lately.

Japanese midterm was today. Studied my ass off.
For those interested, it concerned:
( Midterm specs )

But overall, I think it went ok---mostly cus I did overkill studying, but in the end that makes my life less stressful, at least as far as worrying about my tests is concerned.
Now watch me discover that I completely bombed it and be utterly crushed. T_T

*yawn*
*stretch*
*stretch*
Vanya climbed under the covers to take a nap with me today... he can be sweet when he's not trying to butter you up so you'll feed him.
And Goma finally completed a whole syllable today! He said 'Myu!' in the kitchen, and I was so proud of him... This kitten barely produces an audible sound when he opens his mouth. Usually it's a sad excuse for a '-yu.'

My brain is so full. I should be working on my Marx paper.. I put a few sticky notes in the book, and glanced at some passages this afternoon.. but my brain is just too frazzled to compile things properly..

Ordinarily, when I feel like this, I would flop down on the bed and stretch out, trying to keep my muscles from molding permanently into the crumbled mess that results from hours and hours of reading on the couch and being slumped over a keyboard....
(and by 'the bed' I mean Jeremy's bed... because if I tried to flop on my old dorm bed, bad things would happen.... as the bed itself stood at shoulder-height ^.^;;;)
And of course, as flopping tends to do, some inch of skin somewhere would be exposed, and Jeremy would pounce me and either blow raspberries on my tummy or tickle me---either of which would cause me to roll around laughing and flailing...
Through the laughing or the flailing, either or, would somehow cause all the stuff crammed into my head to coalesce on the sides from all the rolling, or be expelled with the laugter, I don't know exactly...
but the result was that I would be able to think straight (or at least intelligibly) again...

It's hard to shake this 'burnt out' feeling. It's like cleaning a pan that's had something like milk or oil burn to a crisp in it... if you can get to it right away, it'll come clean without too much trouble... otherwise... you scrub and you scrub and you scrub and you scrub and it looks sort of clean.....er

*scrub, scrub, scrub*
(If I could sigh like an anime character, you sould see the little mushroom-shaped puff hanging in the air right now...)
