It is Jake's birthday in less than an hour. He's coming home from a tiny lights rehearsal now and is picking up slices from Lanesplitter. I am passed out on the couch feeling destroyed by my physics midterm earlier this evening, and Nero is passed out on his bed snoring. The test was hideous and I forgot most of what I knew about circuits and electric potential. I'm a little relieved that it's over but not much because I've done little to no mcat work this week, and that is the sole purpose of my existence right now.

In the meantime I've just discovered a blog called How to Learn Swedish in 1000 Difficult Lessons! It's great. His Swedish word for the day: bön (prayer) (vs. böna (bean)).
