Found out a couple interesting things today. First, I might have to find a bed after all for Harrisonburg since a new roommate (Starza’s meeting the candidates this weekend) will be more likely to say yes if they know the room’s furnished. And since we really need to find somebody, I can deal with dragging large pieces of wood and metal to the middle of nowhere if I have to. Luckily, Starza turned down the preppy girl, so maybe our new person won’t be like the rest of JMU.

Second, I found out why I haven’t seen Derek in awhile — he took a few days off (I think he was sick) and got back today, and thus was busy and didn’t have time to come by. Of course, after asking about him Rodney decided to be funny and frickin’ call him all like, “Claire wants to see you!” (and making me turn red). So we talked for a minute about how Rodney was crazy and how stuff was going and then he had to go to class, so yeah … I have solved the Derek mystery

See the rose within the field of white
She’s searching for the grail
But the rain descends to snatch the light
From distant dying suns
A faint resounding in the night
Calls angels wings to beat
Singing silent lip-sewn songs
The distance is too deep …

I love that song (”Dragonfly by The Cruxshadows).

Oh, and Firefox 1.0.5 is out — go download it.
