Ugh. I've only smoked like 2 cigerettes today; and even those, I left to burn themselves out. Man, I don't feel so good. My ribs are my main concern - they ache as if the bones are bruised. Actually, all my muscles feel the same way, tender to the slightest touch. The muscles around my belly that reach around my back are cramped up as well.

Mom says it's because I need excercise. I suppose she could be right.. but it IS summer, and video games and the net are too tempting to refuse. I guess I've realized how easy it is to retreat into laziness. I don't know that I care all that much, but my body claims otherwise.

I finally got JT to beat the stupid room where I was stuck in Prince of Persia. It turns out that((against the laws of science)) the further up the rope you are, the more distance you can achieve while jumping. He also taught me this flip trick that I had no knowelege of.

At least I've been practicing my french vocabulary everyday. I suppose that's a good thing.

Oh, by the way... Happy Birthday, Steph!

<3 and peace,
