Time to bitch a little less about my miniscule love life.
So it snowed yesterday, right? Like, an inch and a half to two inches. It was nice, light, fluffy, powdery stuff. I liked it. I took the dogs out, they had a great time. This morning I look out, nothing's changed, so no big deal right? Well apparently it's been freezing rain all night and -everything- is iced over. Now first off, this makes me worry about my plans tomorrow. Second, we go to let the dogs out and they literally slip off the steps and Baxter is peeing while sliding on the ice. It was really kinda funny. Coming back up the steps, both dogs could barely make it because they just slid right off. Again, kinda funny, feel a little bad, but it was totally a America's Funniest Home Videos moment.
I slept pretty good last night. I did have one weird dream I can't remember now, but hey, as long as I slept at all. The past two days I've been doing half an hour in the morning on the treadmill and an hour at night. I gained back a bit of weight yesterday because I ate way too much, I normally don't eat that much, but it's a lot harder when my mom is home. She just cooked this huge dinner and wouldn't let me out of eating... Whatever. The treadmilling has made the part of my calves right below my knees sore, though... straining the muscles a bit. It's really not that bad, it just gets stiff... but I'm going to keep pushing. I've really been enjoying it, when I'm walking, I just kinda think about stuff. Sometimes I daydream. Sometimes I daydream about seeing Connor when I'm looking all kinds of awesome and telling him "Fuck you, you made me fat" or something else ridiculous. Sometimes I daydream about being snuggled up with guys. Sometimes I think about relationship stuff, sometimes I think about my plans for the future. It's just a nice, relaxing time. I've also noticed (not that this is a surprise) but it's true about exercise releasing endorphins because I always feel great. When it's coming to the end of my half hour (at night, I break it up into half hours so I stop for a bit, drink some water, and stretch) I think about how long I should/could go for.
Well, back onto my usual topic, Robert is coming here tomorrow. I guess I should clean and do some laundry and whatnot. There isn't a lot here to clean up, though, it's not like I even have a lot of stuff. I do hope it's not too icy out and he can't make it - that'd make me really sad. He may or may not even be going to UMBC today, it got delayed to 10, but his class isn't 'til later... but he lives like, seriously, in the middle of nowhere. Who knows.
I've been looking at these options for making a costume:

Hunter has spikes, but that's about it, Warlock has awesome cow-skullness and feathers. Give me your feedback, tell me which is going to be the most impressive. I have ideas on how to make all of them, but the sooner I start, the sooner I either give up or get somewhere. :p
I picture seeing Connor at Otakon... or Blizzcon.. or wherever. Huh.
Speaking of which, I had a dream yesterday about him. I'll just post what I told someone else, it's really the most concise I can make it.
MalunaLies (1:52:34 PM): I only remember some of it, but I was back at the apartment in Seattle in my computer chair and I was trying to log off WoW to check my AIM, but it wouldn't let me... then Connor comes in with a box of my stuff, sets it down and I kinda ignore him, and he comes around and was like "What, dont' I get a hug?" and like, was reaching for me.
I woke up from that with a phone call from some company that charged something on Connor's card which I got reversed. Ironic I woke up to that, really... the dream sorta disturbed me. My actual feeling while he was reaching to hug me was like "What? No." Also, it just... it was my chair, it was my life before, but something felt -wrong- like "What am I doing here?" Connor acted wrong. I think he was thinner, too.
I have slightly resolved my dilemma from yesterday - I just need to let it all go and just ignore it and live for the moment. To be honest, I think I need to stop talking to him on AIM so much, I mentioned to him last night that actions speak louder than words... and words are what we're going by right now. Sarah's right, it's just words, words, words, and it's drawing all of this out. Which, for me, is terrible because I don't have any distractions, no work or school or anything, so my mind tends to stick to things easily.
Speaking of the work front, I really wanted to go out and do more applications and stuff this week, but since the weather sucks, I haven't. Damn it. Plus I got a paper back from HMS host with that reference sheet that HCPSS needs because Host has a "work hotline" for that kind of stuff, which means they don't DO references. Frick. Whatever, they're stupid.
Okay, this entry should end here, I'll probably ramble more later.
