    I’m still making it. Really. It is super tempting to just pass out but there is only one more hour left. I let kitty go but she just came back. Nice, kitty. Yeah, she’s kind of dim. Now she’s letting herself into what we call ...

    Staying awake by playing Bioshock some more. It’s quite effective. I’m still totally exhausted though. Haven’t finished the veggies but I ate everything else. Kitty wants to go though, so I think I’ll let her out. Wish I ...
