this day is creeping by at an incredibly slow pace. it feels like someone has added in an extra 4 or 5 hours to the morning. eleven o'clock... half past eleven...eleven-and-a-half o'clock... half past eleven-and-a-half... eleven-and-nine-hundred-eighty-three-thousandths o'clock... ick. we're never gonna reach 4pm today, are we?
