Styx and Stones

By some clerical error I've ended up with four courses this semester. I was successfully placed in data management, but wasn't moved out of calculus and vectors. That's double the math, after the one I already took in the summer. Oh well. At the moment they're only dealing with people who've failed courses or have an extra spare, so I'll bear with it for awhile. Might be fun. Aside from that I have psychology (well, The Individual and the Family in a Diverse Canadian Society) and of course Lit.
Something did happen in psych today. The teacher said that a person can't be described as a family on their own, there has to be two or more people. One girl asked if this also applied to people with "Multiple Personality Disorder". I wanted to correct her (actually for a split second I wanted to kill her) but I didn't say anything. Teach said no, they're still not a family, but said such a person would be... what was the word she used... entertaining. Much hilarity ensued.
Yeah. I'm glad we're such a joke to these people. It's good that I kept my mouth shut. They don't deserve to know.

Words keep bouncing around inside my head. Many are random, seemingly meaningless, but the following sequence pops up several times a day:

Click, clack
sebun-ten
don't stop
half black
seventh! don't.

I find myself repeating them more when I'm stressed, or sometimes for no reason at all. The order of the lines gets mixed up at times, but the words remains the same. A few others occasionally work themselves into the mix:

don't
wait for us
you mustn't
you promised
the way it goes

And then there's this charming little ditty:

not to
worry
not to
worry
not to
worry
'bout us

Baffling.
I think I'm depressed.
