The reports of my demise have been greatly exaggerated

I think I'm finally better! Hooray! My rash is down to a few sad bumps that don't even itch and I didn't feel tired today at all. YAY!! Don't tell my mom. Maybe I can milk it for a little while longer. :)

I still want my nutella. Dammit. I have GOT to go to Josh's house soon!

I remember now why I can't give up television. I watched Veronica Mars last night. Damn that's some grade-A television entertainment. I mean, seriously. How can you NOT love that show. My favorite quote of the entire series was in the second episode of the evening. Weevil and Logan (who are both noted for being huge jerks) are working together to solve a mystery, but they don't want anyone to know they're working together, so they're trying to be sneaky about it. They go to Veronica's work and they hide the fact that they are together by sitting adjacent tables. When she realizes that they are both there to ask her a favor, she says (please excuse my faulty memory because the quote isn't exactly right), "This is your idea of being sneaky? I have a horse costume you can borrow for surveillance if you want. Do either of you have any experience being a horse's ass?" Good times. Uh. . .maybe you had to be there.

To anyone who was worried, Lawrence and I have NOT broken up, although it was a close call. Everything's happy and shiny again. YAY! It's that six month mark. People ALWAYS fight at six months. Thems the rules, I don't make em.

Uh. . .sorry I don't have anything interesting to say. I am a very boring person.

Okay, the ransom for the nutella is that you bring your Veronica Mars DVD set over so we can watch an episode (or two). Oh, and one billion dollars.

Uh. . .how about one billion air particles?

Ha! You can't fool me! According to Avogadro's law, all gases contain the same number of molecules per volume (standard temperature and pressure). So, Since a mole of any gas has 602214150000000000000000 molecules and has a volume of approximately 22.4 liters, then merely one billion air molecules would only be 0.000000000000000000000037196 liters! That's only 0.37196 yoctoliters! It's so small I had to use a scientific prefix no one has ever heard of! So you can just keep your septillionth of a liter (that's short scale, quadrillionth of a liter on the long scale for you Brits)!
Whew...okay...I'm done now.

yeah...so...this is pretty embarrassing...but...I forgot to convert to one billion. So, actually it would be more around 37.196 femtoliters...which is still pretty small. Strangely, it's around 37 quadrillionths of a liter short scale (instead of long scale, which would be 37 billiardths of a liter).
This actually bothered me so much that I couldn't sleep. So, now that it's off my chest...goodnight.

I was going to say "hurrah!" for feeling better, but then I read Josh's rant, and now I just feel sorry for you.

I feel sorry for me too.
