where is that motivation to do stuff? stupid downtime day
i sort of wish that the branches were never ending and i could sit there all week long looking for beetle holes and making a mess out of them all. but today's a more downtime day. nothing really to do today or tomorrow or even friday. its just sit down and work on the lab notebook day. update what i've done in the past 3 weeks ago. in detail. enter data. make it look pretty. blah. the stuff i dislike most about lab work. the writing it up and chronically logging it all. thats why i love - or well despite the drained burned out feeling, i love all the rush and too many things to do. when its nothing to do- like today, tomorrow and friday. im just like blah
downtime days where im suppose to tidy keep up the lab notebook. gives me too much time to think. i start getting sad about minor things. because i dont feel like im being productive im jealous of everyone else who is out doing things - jealous of those who are productive. and also jealous of those who have the ability to play pokemon all day. im jealous of everyone seriously.
nicks back in the USA. glad he's back. excited really. and really grateful he is back because he saved me from mourning my downtime lab notebok day. i think i was too talkative and too excited because i couldnt shut up, and i dont think i gave him much time to talk. he seems to be more in a contemplative mood though. not as bright and cheerful talking as usual. but i understand how he feels. the ultimate limbo right now. between post college and first job limbo. he seems really worried that things have changed since he was gone - 2 months. and i guess we were both under the impression that he'd be gone for half a year or forever- at least in my mind. so im glad he's back. i hope he finds the grounding he needs though.
all i want to do all day though is sit and play pokemon. get sucked in. blah blah. im so jealous of those who are almost done. or rather. dude i just beat the 1st gym on monday, and just arrived to the 2nd major town last night. i am really taking my time though. though i think i only have 5 hours or so clocked in on that game.
my team is too small!! i wish i could keep more than 6 pokemon. my team is already all grass pretty much. ive got my burmy, oddish (andy sent me one), chespin? (I dont even know its real name, i just named him chestnut), zigzagon, bidoof and am phasing out my spewpa for ralts. ive never played with ralts before but he looks so freaking cute with his little pants and how he's squating in this version. and i do think his second evolution is so cute with the pigtails. i love spewpa he's SO FREAKING CUTE but sadly its just irrational to keep an intermediate bug pokemon stage. :x
but also i want to work in leafeon at some point AND im pretty much about to get bulbasaur. I freaking love mega saur. people say its a flower and he hasnt really changed at all compared to the rest. but i love it. the little flower thing, looks like a hair tuffs. i dont know how to fit these two in at all. is the moss stone even avaliable in this X and Y gen? im not sure. who will i phase out now to fit in bulbasuar?! this mixing pokemon so easily from previous gens is a bad. i cant fit all my favorites into this team
