Houdini Eyeballs a GIANT Burrito Found in the Library.

Sorry that title is so ridiculous. Sounds like something the National Enquirer would write. But really, get ready for some grossness.

So today my eye hurt like all day. I would close it, and my eyes would water and get red, and it looked like I had been crying for years.

I finally decided to inspect the most problematic eye. I was relieved to see a little hair stuck below my eyeball. "I can get that out," I thought. Somehow I managed to wedge my pinkie deep enough into my eye to grab the end of the hair, and I pulled. And pulled. And pulled. And I swear the thing had been wrapped around my brain, because it just kept coming. GROSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS. If I told you the actual length of the hair it would seem much less so. But I'm not exaggerating when I say it was definitely wrapped all the way around to the back of my eye.

Needless to say, I feel much better about my life now, having one less bother in my eye. On the other hand, I didn't get the opportunity to go for a run today. Instead I bound myself to a chair in the library and pretended I was Houdini, but not in the way you may think. It was more of a mental need to escape; escape from the college-kid confusion that was wracking my brain. I was bound to my computer in academia, bound to the library to complete my to-do list, and bound to isolation in order to work through some thoughts ranging from "why is there a WTO website promoting slavery in Africa?" to "why are my eyes burning so vigorously," to "why the fuck does this exist???"

I did manage to escape my library oppression, specifically when I decided these things:
1. The site hasgottobe a fake. Maybe I knew that from the beginning, but I was hoping for a little controversy.
2. There was a massive hair hanging out behind my retina all day. See above.
3. Google Trends tells us that interest in philosophy, musical instruments, history, and art are all becoming less popular (at least as far as Google searches go). The replacement for that, naturally, is Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, and the like. Check it out.

All in all, a successful day. Ate a massive burrito, some rice pudding (so much for no sweets...nah, tomorrow shit's gonna get real), and a large breakfast. Not terrible, but not great either. That's what happens when you get consumed by the library and forced into a computer-laced stupor.
