Nick transposed "Leaving On a Jet Plane" into a key I could actually sing it in. I taught myself that version (and learned a new chord!).
Emily, Nick, Daniel, and I climbed the tower of the St. Mary's and saw the dreaming spires from their own level.
Emily, Nick, Daniel, and I went to Merton again: the college where I had my Shakespeare tutorial and also the place where people like T. S. Eliot and J. R. R. Tolkien went and worked when they were here. Oh, also: second-oldest college in all of Oxford. No big deal. ;-)
Nick, Daniel, and I went shopping for food and clothes. I am proud to say that with our help, the not-a-natural-shopper Nick ended up with a great new pair of jeans. And I have food.
Now I am making cookies, listening to my "For Fun" playlist (which is currently on Elton John), and enjoying the late-afternoon sunlight filtering through the windows.
There may be some downsides to you being stuck in Oxford, but on up is that you have blogged almost every day. Its nice.
