had totally forgotten that a bunch of 4/11-ers - mingchen, liangfen, jiahui and respective boyfriends - i think that's the lot - were going to be in boston for a day, and was taken aback when mingchen called. went and fed dorothea and played with her for a while, and then came home to wait for the 4/11-ers to call when they have arrived at harvard square. so far, phone has not rung yet (unless it did when i was over at garden street) but will use this time to straighten room up a little in case they want to come back here after dinner. am very sleepy and have done next to no work today, and will have to work late tonight and try to write a little. have found a cartoon in spufford that would make a point in the snow queen paper perfectly and want to get a few sentences down on that. the therapist called twice to check on me and advised me to take another half tablet, perhaps two or three times a day. will probably take another before i go to sleep and if i'm surer of myself tomorrow i will stop it for a day or two and see how i feel.
