Today was a day off for the state holiday. Which was good, because I still have a cold. This blows. I woke up and took more decongestants three times last night. That's so not okay. I hate not being able to breathe. Lydia Borisovna made us vareniki (jam in a sweet pasta shell) for breakfast. They were pretty tasty. I walked Laura back to the metro station so that she wouldn't get lost and then went to the grocery store for lunch stuff and more kleenex.

I read more of the Rainbow until I felt too guilty about not studying for the GRE. After all, I only have to take the damn thing in five days. I did that until I couldn't stand it anymore and then did homework and went to bed. It was a very chill day off in between emptying the entire contents of my sinuses every two minutes.
