on this day in 1751: a letter was sent to Robert Charles, working in London, from Isaac Norris in Pennsylvania, asking for the purchase of a "good Bell of about two thousand pounds weight." the Liberty Bell arrived in America in 1752, nearly one year later.
also, today in 79: Pompei was buried by Mt Vesuvius.
i've been awake for about an hour already. i really want to officially start my day- shower, make breakfast, etc. -but it's still too early!
