I need a new LJ picture.
All I want for my birthday and Christmas is a digital camera. Seriously. So all I am going to ask for is Best Buy Gift Certificates. There are definitely other things that I want (namely clothes) but I want a digital camera the most. I saw this wheat type plant at school today and it's branches looked so soft and flowing, and they were! I wanted to take a picture of them really bad. But, no good camera to do that with. There are also some really beautiful changing trees along M-14, and I wanted to capture those too. I want to make a collage for each season.
Going back to the wanting clothes. I am kind of down lately because I am so lazy that I have no energy to take showers most days before school and work, so I feel, look and probably smell gross all day. Not to mention that I have not gotten new clothes in like a long time, so I have been wearing the same hoodie and jeans every day. I think I am going to spend extra money from my next check to order some things from a few catalogs. It will be hard to narrow it down to fit in my budget, but I really need some new stuff. Maybe I can get a little help from my parental unit. Well, I guess unit means like more than one, so what would be the singular of parental unit? Anyway.
I wonder sometimes if I have that seasonal affective disorder. Maybe it's all in my head. I don't know. My mood swings up and down sometimes and I can't understand what the trigger is. It seems like it just happens out of nowhere. Some mornings I walk outside, and it's a sunny morning, with a warm hint in the breeze, and I drive with my windows cracked, and the trees are beautiful, the air smells spicy and earthy, and I am glad for fall and generally glad to be alive. Other times I wake up, tired and groggy, and the sky is overcast, the world is gray, and I proceed through a day of school and work, alone, lonely, cut off from all the humans that I care about, walking in a chilling wind, remembering the days when things were more simple and I didn't have so much to think and worry about, when ignorance was just maybe bliss, and those times I hate the fall and I hate winter even more. Some days I hear those songs that for some reason remind me of fall, and I am comforted; other days, I'm sad.
I'm looking forward to a Saturday off. It's nice to work at a place where the manager respects you and realizes that everyone needs weekend days off every once in awhile. It's nice to not even have to ask. I want to carve a pumpkin and bake the seeds (even though Halloween is gone), and I also want to get some clothes if at all possible.
