Usually, I don't particularly enjoy sitting around my house doing nothing, but last night I FINALLY got my stupid iPod to work, and spent today putting all of my music on it...a day well spent, I think.
I love ABBA. Not gonna lie.
when life gives you lemons, put on your white sombrero.

Oh Trickster, how I love thee.
So, just a week until I make my return to the haunted halls of Wells College. You know, the ghost stories of that 150-year-old school would make anyone avoid certain buildings/floors in the dead of night.
Anywhoozle, that's not quite the topic of tonight's post. I will regale you with Wells stories on another day. For now, I think I would like to talk about...asylums.
I became curious one day about the asylums of the early 1900's, when one was placed inside a sanatorium for any number of reasons...sane or not. Bellevue, Amityville...all of these places were meant to save people from themselves, but too often did horrendous events occur within those solid stone walls. A fun fact for your enjoyment: Drew Barrymore's grandfather, Maurice, was a resident of the Amityville Asylum! Now it's South Oaks, but what's in a name?
Why do I tell you this meaningless information? Honestly, I have no clue. It interests me, and thus I wish it to interest you!
Perhaps one day, when I finish my latest project, you will understand my interest in the asylums...or perhaps you won't. I suppose we get to wait and see!
Is it weird that I enjoy doing homework, to an extent?
peace&love lovelies.
