Today was Novel Day. Which means you have to come as either a character from a novel or an author. If you go with character, you'll be asked in homeroom to talk about the story the character comes from and her or his role in it. If you go with author, it has to be a "recognizable" author that folks will know by sight.

I was totally lost, and Mom suggested I wear the Alice costume again. Lame. Inspiration hit me as I was waking up, though. I ended up going as Dorothy Gale from The Wizard of Oz.

I have to admit, I was curious what Matthew was going to do today. He didn't disappoint. He came to school as Sherlock Holmes. He didn't win today, some girl in the Senior class won, and I never even heard what her costume was.

Pretty boring today, actually. Not much going on that shouldn't. Not that I mind. I'd rather things be nice and boring from now on.
