I could probably keep a log of my sleeping schedule and it would look about the same as if I wrote a bunch of random numbers now:

1283934 6545358 0732976 5653318 7653631

There's my next five weeks of sleeping. Probably.

We did the gift project thing today. I got Jenna (Are we supposed to write that in here? I don't know.) but I need a place to put it so I'll remember it anyway. So that's cool.

I am really excited about the different types of gestures you taught us about. I'd never had it broken down for me like that, and it'll probably be really useful for characters. I recognize that I have a problem favoring my right side-- I'll make lots of punctuative gestures pointing into nowhere, or throwing my right arm out as a way to convey STRONG EMOTIONS. Kristin pointed it out to me once when she asked me what I was pointing at during a monologue. I didn't have a good answer, I just have a tendency to point.  Asymmetrical gestures are my jam in general. 

I'm going to explore more symmetrical gestures in the next monologue I work on. Also I need to find places for descriptive gestures, I usually just use identity and punctuative.
