five senses

I am copying Angela, who seems to have been inspired by this person, and adopting the "five senses friday." Except, I am going to make it my own, and do "five senses whenever-i-want-day." I think it's a great way to quickly document your present state. So without further ado,

touching:

 crinkly trace paper.

smelling:

 sadly, nothing. my nose is stuffy.

seeing:

 too many computer rays: work on my computer until 3 am, wake up at 8 am to work on computer at work, stare at a projector in class, come home work on my computer until 3 am, repeat.

hearing:

 jonathan safran foer's "everything is illuminated". i love books on tape.

tasting:

freshly popped organic popcorn, seasoned with olive oil, fresh ground pepper, smoked paprika, and sea salt.
