Not much happening here.
Not much going on right now. Little noteworthy things here and there; some not. Sleep sched. all messed up; should go to bed early so that I can have more than 10 (very tired) hours in my day. ^^;
Got frantic today because I don't want to waste the rest of my break, but from now on I should work on those things that I've been putting off until after holidays. My sister TEssa is going home on the weekend though (back to the San Fran area), and other in-town friends will become unavailable around that time (ISU starts up a week before Iowa, as usual).
Big issue is that, while eveyrone's being nice, it seems to be tentative. When did I get so entitled? at least around here.... I guess I just feel a parent should be, first and foremost, a parent to me, which means helping me with my need to grow when I ask for it, even if it inconviences them some. It is,after all, their job, both evolutionarily (according to the code of nature) and personally chosen (sort of). So...yeah. I hate reverting when I come here. I need to get away a bit. It makes me self-destruct. *shifty eyes*
Went to a new year's party and caught up with best friend from middle school/high school. We're working on stories again. Oh boy is that liberating. She's reminding me how it's supposed to be, not all stressed and caring about structure and form (outside->in) like i"ve gotten in recent months. Not having plot cannot be fixed by using a formula for form. Don't even try @.@''.
Athena has been fixing my back nicely; I have been helping her with hers. It's fun, and really helps. She gets those swollen places my chiropractor doesn't do satisfactorily. Yay! She taught me a couple of strengthening exercises today. I hope it will help, and i can be in less pain all the time, like back in the pre-college days.
My chair did bite the dust completely though, so I have to either fix it, go chairless, or spend all my time on my office chair/bed. A beanbag might be nice; haven't had one in years. i don't think it would help my back much. We've been looking for a futon (American-style), but they get snatched up quick. Anyone have a futon, relaxing chair, or small love seat they're looking to get rid of(sell cheaply/give away)?
Le'mme know. thanks!
And happy new year. Let's make this the best one yet!
resolutions (so far): be a better friend to others.
Don't pull so hard on people.
Find a path and walk it (don't let anyone get you down about your choices, which you make knowing full well what you want and that you can do it, before you ever tell them).
Make a new friend. ( :) )
Take life easy?
Thanks for listening.
Let's hope I get into my grad schools! *crosses fingers!!!*
