Diary of Lord Samson of the I-can't-remember-which galaxy
29 September

Today, my Lo'taur behaved very oddly. First, she walked in circles around the house, holding a small white blipping device. When the device went off - i was unsure whether my faithful servant had turned on me and was about to blow it up - she put her hand to her neck until it went off again. Then she wrote something down, reset the device, and started jogging. Again, the timer goes off, she puts her hand to her neck... and then she went outside.
I followed, unsure of what she was doing now; she started walking up and down the steps, also in circles, device still in hand. I followed for a while, but then got fed up and went into the yard to watch. soon enough, the device went off again, and the process repeated; she went inside and sat down until it went off agin, then made notes on some paper. What is the meaning of this???
I also noticed that she is wearing two white bands around her fingers, thus restricting her ability to move them. Is this just some human thing, or is there something going on that i am unawares of? some plot, perhaps...? Curiouser and curiouser...

Well, this is a bit random, but i thought I'd give ya'll a little update on my life at the moment.

I'm TIRED. very, VERY tired. I can't even remember what month it is, and i keep thinking it's wednesday. Today i discovered that there were two assignments due today that I hadn't done/hadn't known were due/thought we were going to work on more in class (that was a bit traumatic). On monday i almost fell asleep in, well, ALL my periods (arg). And last night I jarred my finger really quite badly at basketball, and as we had no subs and one of the team had been fouled off, i had to keep playing (luckily there was only 2 mins left - and we won, anyway), and then couldn't be bothered to put ice no it until i got home; as a result, it's now nicely swollen, and hurtin' like Netu. So excuse my lack of grammar, its hard to type with your fingers taped together.
At least it's the last week of school. But then again, the holidays don't bode well; i have TWO 3-day DOE camps (ARG), which is gonna kill me. >.<
We do have a new convert, though... krissie has now joined DA! woo! though i doubt she's been on since she registered... meh.

And now, to finish off, a little article that i found highly amusing...

"Escapee bees attack crash victims"

More than 20 people were hospitalised in Turkey overnight after a van carrying bee hives hit a truck, angering the bees who attacked crash victims and rescuers, the Anatolia news agency reported.

Six people were injured in the crash near the south-western Mediterranean resort of Marmaris and around 20 others, including medics and police, were hospitalised with bee stings, the agency said.

Professional beekeepers had to be called in to help evacuate the victims, some of whom had to wait for more than an hour to be extracted from among the mangled hives.

One of the six crash victims, an 18-year-old man, later died in hospital, but the cause of death was not yet clear, local governor Ahmet Altiparmak told Anatolia.
