today's program:

-- wake up.
-- shower.
-- have a bit of breakfast while looking at overnight e-mail and today's headlines.
-- head out to lecture.
-- after lecture, stop at borders; have sandwich, hot chocolate, and juce while reading a couple of chapters of elizabeth peters for brain-candy purposes.
-- hit bank to move money and boots to get nail stuff.
-- on the walk home, fall victim to extreme stomach discomfort.

feeling better now, following mad stomach cramps and a couple of antacids, but am perplexed, and not in a good way.  i have eaten, drunk, and done nothing out of the ordinary today, and i'm not under unusual levels of stress -- i can't think why the ol' guts would choose this afternoon to randomly start acting up.  ergh.
