I think I need someone to make an intervention here. I'm tired and stressed, although done writing the first foolish paper of this class. I should be jumping for joy, dancing around on tabletops, but no...I'm still worrying about my damn grade for Pete's sake! I have no confidence. whatever

Terrakotta's list of 20 interesting facts about herself have caused me to now begin pondering...

I drove to vegas once. Well, actually I drove EVERYWHERE once.

48 states and 21,000 miles in 1997 after I graduated from college.

I feel that colleges and universities were designed to torture poor students into believing that they are inferior beings. I have a paper due Friday (but I have to hand it in tomorrow since I am not on campus Friday) in a class that is instructed by one of THE hardest graders on campus. It's only a 3-4 page paper but I feel that my...

Ok this rain is seriously becoming a problem. I am so UN-motivated it's not even funny. I have sooo much stuff staring me in the face and I can't even begin to get interested in doing any of it (beyond the actual thought that I have stuff to do and it might be interesting to start doing it.) Right now though I think it's best...

I like the new profile pic too!

Earlier in the week, on channel 22 news, there was a "special report" on how the endless rain can induce deep depression. Their tips on staying sane included limit the amount of television you watch (and watch the deluge of water outside the window instead???!!) and don't drink: it will only make you feel worse. I found it strangely amusing that they added that last one, and I plan to write to their news chief and tell them just how wrong they are tongue But, this morning, IT'S A MIRACLE! The sun is beaming through my windows and I am quite excited. I bet you are feeling better too.

Hopefully no more man bashing either? At least a man-bashing moratorium biggrin

Dear Rain,

I regret to inform you that we will have to ask you leave the Western Massachusetts area for an unspecified amount of time. You see, our very esteemed collegue, Gamma, has decided that she no longer likes you for several reasons.

1) You suck to drive in

2) While driving in near whiteout conditions due to your persistent downpouring, it's no fun to...

I know how boobies can get boring especially if you own your own set.

yeah i could see how reading it could be worse that having it stuck in your head. seriously though, i woke up this morning and the first thing in my head was......"i'm supposed to remember something?" then two seconds later.......bam! that pops in my head. smile smile

EXCITEMENT!!

I now have a SINK in my bathroom!! WOOHOO!! I never thought I would be so excited about a sink but after many a morning and night brushing my teeth in either the kitchen sink or the bathtub I've come to appreciate what a wonderful invention that bathroom sink is!!

In other news, one of my dogs tried to eat my cat this morning,...

i wasn't drunk on a tuesday night. i was slightly drunk. 3 beers and a shot does not constitute drunk in my book. smile

^^Zode.

Tickets I have say show starts at 8:30, doors open at 7:30. I am guessing that the two other performances (bands?) will start first, but doors do open at 7:30.

I think being sick has caused my eyes to change shape, thus impairing me from wearing my contacts!! It appears as if a bout of allergies has followed up The Sickness so now I want to scratch my eyes out of my head! I'm sure people think I'm a crackhead or smoking pot or something (neither of which have I ever done or intend to...

I havent decided yet if I should call in sick or not.
bonfirecollapse:
alergies suck. so far i've lucked out this year. (knocks on wood)
and sorry i don't know any barbera striesand that could fit the situation. actually if i woke up with bab's in my head i would know that it was going to be the worst day of my life. i like my choice of music. and it WAS actually in my head when i woke up. wink
as for buring man. it's a festival that happens at the end of summer every year a few hundred miles outside reno nv in the black rock desert. it's an amazing community of people and artists that gather to celebrate life and all sorts of things. also to get away from the world and let everyone's freak flag fly without worry of anyone judging you because everyone there is just as big of a freak as you. i went last summer and plan to go back, it was so much fun. i just missed it this year because my friend that sets everything up was on his honeymoon. maybe next year. smile

I have emerged from THE SICKNESS! But alas, I am still feeling a little phlegmy which is the worst part of being sick as far as I'm concerned! The other day someone at work told me that the sickness comes in two forms: first, you get better and start feeling great and then second, it hits you again making you go through the whole miserable...

I'm dying puke

Well I'm not THAT sick but leaving bed has been a difficult thing to do since Friday. Yes, I went to the Big E even though I was sick (I wouldn't advise doing that) and stayed for about 3 hours.

I'm amazed that the human body can produce this much snot....Ug! I'm going back to bed skull

hmmmm i haven't thought about how you can earn more points. maybe i'll offer more in my next journal. something to think about. now don't forget. twenty points earns you an orphan. so don't win what you can't take care of. hehehe
i'm all for the carpool thing. doesn't bother me who drives. i'm cool with whatever you girls decide. i can drive too if need be.

hope you are feeling better soon. frown smile

On Thursdays I'm free after 6p so we can all meet up after that since the show starts at 830p. Did we decide if the 3 of us who gotta-go-to-bed-early-gotta-get-up-early-can't-hang are going to be carpooling?

If the show starts at 8:30, I'm thinking we could meet up at 7:00 and get some drinks, then bounce on over to Pearl Street at 8:30. Bonfire says there are bands at warm-up so I assume we probably won't miss anything if we are 2 minutes late, so hold onto your panties, prissy!! biggrin I'm up for carpooling or whatever. I'm easy. Well, not easy but easy to please. Well not that either. No, maybe so. Okay now I am arguing with MYSELF in a journal comment.

ding ding ding ding. gamma you've won the five points (when you get to twenty points you get your first orphen). i think they're an indian persussion instrument. i know bjork used them for her unplugged.

Well for the first time in days there is nothing interesting to report about the bathroom. I feel so sad ... it's finally done so there is nothing left to complain about biggrin
I now have a tub surround so I don't have to take a shower with plastic wrapped walls and hence wind up with a saran-wrapped ass! Ah, the beauty of a bathroom! Of...

DAY 3: BATHROOM FRUSTRATION

Well my plans for relaxing in my brand new bathroom have come to a screeching halt. Last night I suffered with no way to bathe again, but had the luxury of a toilet (YAY!)
Today I was able to shower and use the toilet but we still have half a wall missing and no tub surround. I'm a little disappointed in...

Don't apologize for taking your time in school! My sister just completed her bachelor's and she is.. 28? I think blush We're so close hahaha And yes, you should totally look into the 180 day program: you can't work a real job for a year, but it's worth it because you get everything done in 1 year. If you do come to Central, you can talk to some of the 180 day people there!

yeah i saw that the burlesque show in the advocate. i kept forgetting to mention it though. sounds cool.
