How immensely silly of me... quitting. HA! I can't believe I even considered it.

And for the last time, I did NOT kill him... smile He is alive and well - pictures as proof to come soon.

For now, though, I kinda need to shower and dress for class, they frown upon showing up nekkid (well, they have rules against it, at least). But no more...

Ooooo...funnel cake. And don't forget deep fried twinkies, and deep fried snicker bars and... wink

I hope you got more sleep. I know it's a precious commodity in school.

Hang in there.

I am so behind here... I've considered cancelling my membership for time/monetary reasons. It's not that I don't enjoy SG, but that I just don't know that I have time for it. frown But I don't think I want to cancel my membership...

I will decide by Nov 8th... my next billing date. I'm thinking the solution will be to either pay for the 12-month membership...

Good to know that the two of you are still kicking, foxy! All of us certainly hope that you hang around...besides, I've never even gotten to meet you yet. So clearly you can't leave just yet.

Hey, at least you're doing better at keeping up than that no-good boyfriend of yours. I think you killed him and stuffed him in your trunk.

Does anyone else hate the Country Crock commercials?

And I'm sorry I've been absent, lately - probably not gonna improve anytime soon, either. I do update my livejournal, though... starwidget1.livejournal.com.

Quick update: School is going well, work is slightly less hectic only because I'm going less, and I'm generally happy. smile Sorry I haven't been keeping up with you guys - I hope you're all well!!...

TATTOO!

http://suicidegirls.com/members/TheFox/pics/72435/1/


I finally got my second tattoo, I'm so happy with it. It's the music for "Fly Me to the Moon" (minus the staff because that would have made it HUGE)...

PIERCING!

http://suicidegirls.com/members/TheFox/pics/80967/2/

I finally got my nose pierced. I know, what 13 year old girl hasn't done that already, right? Well, I hadn't - and I've wanted to for years, now. Most of...

That tattoo is really neat and well designed.It's subtle, not too overbearing. I like the way it curves arund your collarbone.

I really like that one! A nice choice! Is it weird that the older I get, the more I like tatttoos on women? Strange.

Today I overheard a man telling his friend about his horrendous day. It was one thing after another, and all very odd things - only things that could have happened to this guy, I imagine. I wanted so bad to lean over as I got up to leave and comment, but I was afraid that would seem creepy/rude. I don't mind when complete strangers comment...

For the love of everything that's right in this world, stay away from MySpace!

There are some places you can't expect privacy. Especially in public places. I've had interesting conversations with strangers that overheard a conversation. I don't mind when people do it, but when our government does it, now that's really creepy.
schiavona:
Hmmm...sometimes I'm rather put out if I'm trying to have a private conversation, but usually it's all in the approach. Let's face it, the creepiness from creepy people always shows through, and I never want to talk with them. smile

I am currently watching a ferret climb into a pot. And try to dig a hole in it.

I am also watching a cat try to surf teh intarwebs.

And I'm eating the bestest homemade pizza ever.

After a weekend that involved sleeping until 2pm Saturday (something I haven't done in months) and tubing all day Sunday, awesome pizza and humorous critter antics are the...

Many of the stars just may be.

Tubing is fun, but up here they've banned drinking while tubing because it was trashing up the rivers.

Thanks. I, uh... I really hope to not let Math and Physics down.

The summer is known for longer days... but I also feel like I have less time.

Went to Richmond, VA to visit LittleFierceOne's family for the fourth. It was nice, quiet... no fireworks, but we went to Maymont Park which was fun and very pretty.

Lately, between his class and both of us working and me trying to get things done for when I...

Stop waiting for the other shoe to drop and squish you. It'll be fine and, like you said, you're in. Yay!! smile

Hmm...camping. Well, just don't go until closer to fall, cause the mosquitos alone will probably kill you, if the heat doesn't. Of course, I am a heat weenie. Don't know how that happened, as I grew up and lived most of my life in south TX, but there you have it, I can't stand the heat anymore.

I just got back from camping. It's fun but after a few days I just long to sleep in a soft dry bed.

Thanks for the compliments.

Enjoy those long lazy days

So, I have received my official "welcome back" letter - as of August this year, I'm a UNC Student again! Rock on!

Only two years left on my degree... two whole years... however you want to view it, I suppose.

Registering for classes has been a pain, but I'm getting through it. Mostly I'm just glad that part's done. And the financial part is coming...

Well, at least you get a few days off. I hope.

Now that I can take allergy meds again I'll at least be able to go back and work in the basement again. I found I cannot just exercise to exercise. I have to do something I enjoy or it'll never happen. Karen and I used to sword-fight, but we haven't in several years just because her schedule is so hectic. I'd love to get back to that. Plus, it let's her work out some aggressions on me. wink

***WHACK!!!*** eeek eeek

People used to be horrified that we'd do this and actually enjoy it. Especially when we'd show up at work with bruises. I especially loved the time she got through my defense and whacked me in the face a good one, left this big 'ol bruise covering the whole left side of my face. It was shortly after that I purchased helmets for us. shocked

Eh, what can I say, we love abuse. smile

welcome back to school! Now get that degree, young lady, or someone will have to spank you smile

Seriously...glad you're learining again. The longer you wait, the harder it is to go back.

So, today I finally got started on that 2 year old to-do list.

I paid off my school accounts to remove stops on registration, reappliation, etc.

I finished my application for readmission to UNC.

I spoke with the Teaching Fellows coordinator about my scholarship status for next year.

I spoke with somebody in the School of Education about what my next steps are for her...

So what's your ideal to do once you are all educated and stuff?

Hang in there.

biggrin Hmmm...bending them to your will, huh? Two more years. Long time. Having watch Karen go through 5 years for her phd I can entirely sympathize with you in this, though I hope your path is much smoother than hers was.

Heh, I certainly learned to drink during her sentance, and found champagne tastes good any time. smile wink

So what sorts of fun things have you been up to?

So, when two people are forced to do something they absolutely hate doing, it'll put a strain on a relationship. All is well, but I think LittleFierceOne hates moving as much as I do. It makes it frustrating trying to work together. But we managed to get all my heavy furniture out of my apartment and into an overpriced storage unit. The two of us...

Vacuuming is relaxing... even watching somebody else vacuum. I think it's similar to watching somebody erase a chalkboard or a dry erase board... wiping something clean. I would rather watch LittleFierceOne vacuum than watch tv... it's mesmerizing.

Is this sad?

In any case, I put some pictures of me up... only a couple, not very exciting. One has been here before and the others aren't...

What if your retainer got stuck on my retainer?

OMG that would be totally lame.

There is a Zen-like quality to vacuuming. I learned this vacumming ballrooms at the Grove Park Inn.
madman31:
We like some of you. Thanks for the pictures.

There's something about vacuuming...I agree. I think it's the semi-soothing white noise.

New picture in honor of my baby... cuz he's he most adorablest doggie ever. smile

Many thanks to LittleFierceOne for taking the picture. kiss
vampirate:
Yeah. Someone told me recently that I should concentrate on what makes me feel good about myself, as opposed to what just makes me feel good. I'm still a mess, though.
