Sep. 24th, 1990 06:00 pmToday I had fun. Kostia and I were telling jokes again. Now I have an incurable habit of chewing pencils. The only way I stop is when someone tells me to. I told him that. He said that when he was in first grade (Soviet School) he used to destroy pens. He told me a lot of jokes about this extremo Soviet president. Apart from that, I had a pretty good day, except for the mile. I cheated, and I know Kostia did too.
5/12/04 - "I chew pencils." "So do I." "The cosmos has spoken - we were meant to be together." *snrrk* I love myself sometimes.
It's so weird reading this stuff and remembering oh, yeah, there used to be this thing called the Soviet Union, huh? History happens all around us every day, and it only becomes significant in retrospect. How odd.
Ya know? kids need to be exercised more these days, I quite fully agree with that. But I still think it's rather sadistic to make an asthmatic kid that hasn't grown into her legs run a whole fucking mile. I can't remember how many laps around the school roof constituted a mile, but it was a lot and after you pass the tennis court for the third time it all gets that much more boring. I still think mile runs would be a lot better if they meant a straight line from point A to point B rather than several times in a big circle. You could at least enjoy the view then. Bah.
