boot camp day 15

i wonder if one of the queen ants of weyburn died, or something; i haven't found any ants in my kitchen for the last couple of days. no complaints here! another piece of good news, i received my espresso maker in the mail today (with the glass carafe broken but oh well, that's an easy workaround). things have been pretty good -- i've been going to bed early and waking up early and being fairly productive; in algebra he's no longer even working from the syllabus so i just work on old problems, which is a better way to spend 2 hours anyway, i think. anyway, i just ate a can of black beans with cheese and tomato and onions and that was pretty good and hearty; i'm sure i will be eating that again within the week. i am about to start a load of laundry, then it's cardinals game and math for the rest of the evening. it's a little bit difficult to remember what day it is. also, i wake up in the middle of the night thinking about math problems. i'll be glad when this test is over. anyway, thanks for reading!
