rumbles of thunder
"Do what you can, with what you have, where you are." - Theodore Roosevelt

Things went as well as possible I think.

SAT tomorrow. Very tired. No studying done.

"He is able who thinks he is able." - Buddha

Ran outside during the breaks in the storm to get pictures. The sky was so dramatic. An occassional rumble of thunder. Love the smell of a rainstorm.

I was reading aloud from Macbeth in the car just to annoy my brother.
He said, "Macbeth's all about killing people and stuff, right?"
"Well... yeah, essentially."
"Oh, sort of like Oedipus who killed his father and married his mother?"
::stunned pause:: "HOW THE HELL DID YOU KNOW THAT?!"
"The Simpsons."

The things TV teaches kids.

Later, my brother had a revelation. "Macbeth is written as a play?!!"
"Yeah... Shakespeare did mostly write plays..."
"But they kept it as a play in book form?"
"Yeah... What, did you think they'd change it to 'And then Macbeth did this...'?"
"YES! That's how books are!"

Anyway, I have to do some reviewing.

"Who seeks a faultless friend remains friendless." - Irish proverb
