Whining

I'm so tired! ::whine:: I got up early on Monday to go work on a paper, and then stayed up all night working on the darn thing, so last night I couldn't sleep. Then I had to get up today to work on another couple of papers-and I'm so tired that it's going so slowly. I'm to that brain-dead dumb stage of tiredness. I'd take a nap, but there's no way I'd get up again before morning. :(

I'll be so glad when this week is over. I'm thinking about going home this weekend if it doesn't snow. I've got reading to do, but it would be nice to have my mommy making dinner for me and stuff.

Is it just me, or does a "seppuku dagger" seem like a bad Valentine's Day present to anyone else?
I ask because it's in the Highlander catalog ad this month, under the tag line "Honor your love with a Highlander dagger." And although I can appreciate the romance of cold steel, I don't think a seppuku dagger would carry the desired message.

In other news, I'm irrationally feeling abandoned by my mom. Last night she all but hung up on me so she could talk to my brother, and tonight she would barely talk to me because she wanted me to write my stupid paper. She had good reasons for cutting both calls short, but she didn't make any offer to talk to me later, or to say she hoped I could make it home this weekend like I planned too. After the way she acted all Christmas break, I'm starting to wonder if something's wrong. And I know I'm just being irrationally emotional, but still.
