"You came in with the breeeeeze, on Suuunday Mooorrniiing..." -- "Sunday Morning," No Doubt
Not much of interest today. That quote has nothing to do with this entry, but it is Sunday.
Woke up with a bad headcold. I can breathe okay but all my pipes back there seem really sore. Throat and ears and nose. I'm pretty sure I caught it from Clifford's roommate, as he was talking about how he had given it to his nouveau beloved before. The visit was worth the cold, but I might see if I can get a doctor's appointment anyway, just because I'd like it to clear up before school starts, and it's acting like it might turn into soemthing worse.
Went to church. Heard a new preacher candidate try out. He is pretty closed-minded and rigid, but is a good speaker and a really nice guy. He looks almost exactly like my uncle David. Three adorable kids. He has a good background too. Doesn't matter as much to me anymore as I stay in Nashville most of the time...but I would like them to find a nice one, at least for Dad's sake. Wore my green-and-white dress with my pearls, a pretty headband, and my white shoes...am trying to get as much mileage out of them as possible before Labor Day.
Worked a little more this afternoon, though I did not get as much done as yesterday. Organized all my jewelry and fixed up all my new buttons on my lucky hat. Started putting together hair stuff and shower stuff, and finished a big box of schoolbooks and papers. Already had done underwear, socks, belts, shirts, etc.
Took a nap. Was very drowsy from the stuff I took.
Had a bad day involving mother, so Ross can welcome me into the "having difficulties with parental units" club. She made me so angry on the phone that I actually cussed in front of Dad (which may not seem like a big deal to you, but would be if you knew him...). Later when I went over and spent a damn long time helping her to do all this moving stuff, I do one thing wrong and she starts blessing me out -- to which I reply, "Fuck you!" (Which may seem like a big deal to you, but it wouldn't be if you knew her...) Anyway, I don't want to go into it, but she was being a grand beeyotch today.
After I was done over there I stopped by Sean's house and visited for a few minutes. We both sort of feel depressed because we have been home the whole summer but haven't really spent that much time together. He spends a lot of days with Wendi (his girlfriend), and he has actually had a falling out with most of his friends because of it. I'm one of the few left, I think. And I was in Nashville whenever he was free.
I miss him.
Then Dad, Pip, and I went on our Riverfront Park walk, during which we ran into a load of people we knew and probably got in no exercise whatsoever. Pip managed to get a menagerie of sticks and leaves up in his fur so I had to pick them all out when he got home. He thought he was getting a bellyrub, so he was decently well-behaved except for one little nibble.\
Tomorrow I have to get up early to get my car serviced. But after that I might be able to hang out with Sean and Wendi some, and that would make me happy.
Here's a question. Who else is on livejournal that I know? So far it's just Ross, Russ, and Hannah. Is there anyone else I don't know about?
Confusion to Robespierre.
Mia: "Don't you hate that?"
Vincent: "What?"
Mia: "Uncomfortable silences. Why do we feel it's necessary to yak about bullshit in order to be comfortable?"
Vincent: "I don't know. That's a good question."
Mia: "That's when you know you've found somebody special. When you can just shut the fuck up for a minute and comfortably enjoy the silence."

I think that's very true.
