screwy sleep schedule, among other fine points of my life.
well, as of Friday my sleep schedule was tossed off-kilter.
Primarily because Andrea and Tyler came over and we made a poor attempt at watching -a movie that may or may not've been obtained through legal means- and as such, it was poor quality, leading us to spend an extra 54 minutes between segments of the film and a very low volume lending to an all-together un-enjoyable movie experience, though it was amusing non-the-less.
so we didn't sleep until 5:30am *ish*.
I also slept poorly, because I kept trying to roll over... which ended poorly everytime.
at the hockey game friday night, as a few of you already know, resulted in me once again winding up in the ER due to a combination of me being foolish and gravity not liking me too much.
You see, I was sitting with AO and Doobay... and AO and I are very short people, so we'd been standing on our chairs to see above the puckheads and other students standing infront of us. this was a brilliant idea, until I tried it. the chairs are of the variety that fold up... annnd I stood too far back, causing the chair to fold up on me as I was standing on it. I went forward catching my arm between the chairs infront of me, and i kept going. My arm twisted in a weird way and was all kinds of swollen, so I went to one of the event staff about it. the pain was so intense I wanted to vomit and cry and talk about it all at the same time, it was really bizarre.
I held my cool until the event staffer contacted a public safety officer, and at that point I did start crying, though I maintainted my ability to speak (which is rare for me). the icecream vendor gave me a bag of ice, and a public safety officer took me to the hospital to get x-rays taken.
I GOT TO RIDE IN A POLICE CAR. how cool is that =x (only once though, because even though he said he'd be able to come back and pick me up when I was finished, I got done at the hospital as the hockey game got out. thankfully Christy was kind enough to give me a ride back to my car <3)
at the hospital I felt like a patient in scrubs. I think I had 4 or 5 nurses see me in there as well as the official doctor. all of them ended up laughing at one point or another, which made me feel better too. hurr.
thankfully I didn't break anything, my arm was just very badly bruised from the wrist to just below my shoulder, and everything was swollen up... causing movement to be very very painful.
I was given 800mg painkillers and a sling as well as the instructions to use the sling for a few days, and ice/take painkillers as needed, and on Monday to try and increase my range of motion in that arm.
It was awesome, as I went to walmart to get a shirt of band banquet, and while perusing the rest of the store, i picked up a pillow confidently with my right hand... and promptly dropped it. whoops. lol
in other news i hate livejournal's RTF editor -.-
it's finals week too, and my schedule is fairly wide open-
I have 1 take-home exam (due friday)
1 inclass exam on Wednesday morning.
1 one page essay on any goddamn things I please. (due friday)
1 website post on something- anything- relating to the literary topics we discussed in class. (due friday)
annnd band. psh. (class tuesday 4-6, friday 3:30-5, saturday 9:45-? (between 11:30 and 1 somewhere.)
THEN I GET TO DRIVE THE 8 HOURS HOME YAY.
I keep having really emotional/bizarre dreams, with the recurring themes of:
1. smoking cigarrettes
2. cuddling (usually with an ex)
3. Iron Hide's brakes failing.
and 4. emotional breakdowns relating to events from this summer.
boo. super stupid.
Over winter break I have an awesome amount of plans:
-Christmas celebration with my older bro/niece/future-sister-in-law
-Christmas celebration with my mum/boy/grandmum at the cabin
-Christmas celebration with my father
-Dress perusing with Sandy and her sister for her wedding
-Arcade-going with Brian
-Cookies/ANTM/Olive Garden traditions with Maggie!
-New years celebration somewhere in there, probably involving Maggie and Simba (and if I can finagle it, Brian too)
-work on the 5 artworks for Sean's RPG (must, work, hard... could make money D=)
-Get my horde to level 80... (lol).
-Dentist appointment to get my stupid filling looked at, have my bitesplint adjusted AGAIN, and have my weird 'shy' molar that keeps receding inspected...
I think that's everything for now...
