We kicked ass. Sort of.

My partner and I broke at this weekend's tournament.  If I hadn't messed up the final round, we might have gone to win the whole thing.  C'est la vie.  But, even without that, we didn't do to shabby, with my partner winning 8th in speaker points and me winning 1st.   (Speaker points are measured in how well a person spoke.  Yes, it is possible to win a round but have low speaks or vice versa.)

I've been really tired and lonely lately.  Having a two day tournament and Valentine's day didn't help.  It would be different if th3 Goofball lived closer, but celebrating a day of love with a boyfriend who lives 800 miles away doesn't really help.  Especially when video feeds are acting shabby.

I have also been losing weight, according to my mom.  Both she and my grandma are fussing.  I am not sure this weight loss is a good thing, as I already fit into my skinniest clothes.  If this keeps going, I will have to invest in safety pins.

I think that this is because I keep forgetting to eat.  Some things are more important than regular meals, like updating schedules polishing doorknobs and anything else that touches one of my sensitive obsessive nerves.

That sounds like I have an eating disorder.  I want to go google them now instead of finding lunch.

what. NOTHING IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN EATING. well, very old cranky books are sometimes more important than eating, but eating is a key component to their and everything else's continued importance, because if you don't eat you waste away and then victorians lock your memory up in a tower and write sonnets about you.

i know that you know this, and therefore that me saying it is silly and borderline condescending, but seriously. eat. now. toast with jam, and scrambled eggs. i'm serious.

it's good you have a list, but your list is completely insane. remove 'homework due tomorrow' (really there's no other sort of homework but that that is due tomorrow, because if it doesn't start off that way all right thinking people just wait to start until it is) and flip the whole thing upside down and it will make some sense.
