pretense of normalcy

all regular life function have been suspened for six weeks or so while the nation of me functioned under a war measures act, and we're now trying to revert to a civilian lifestyle. I still have one exam to write on Monday, and lots of studying to do, but I still only have four or five major things on my mind, as opposed to the evil hordes of stress inducing demons that were running the show for the past little while. If I get enough work done this morning (and gee, I'm off to such a good start, eh?) I might even head down to Canada's biggest shoe sale.
