regrets, plans

I am so absolutely infuriated with myself. I had promised someone I would be her proxy for parking lottery, cause she had class, and what did I do? I fell asleep. Now, I meant to fall asleep, and I carefully set my alarm to beep at 4:00, so as to arrive at Stoddard at 4:15. But when I woke up, the alarm was off, it was 4:50, and I didn't know what to do with myself. So I went to see Elizabeth-who-will-not-be-nicknamed, and she gives really good hugs, so that made things somewhat better, but I still feel so STUPID. Argh.

I went to sleep too late after reading all this ecology stuff, so I was tired all day (I also got up early for senior breakfast, and stopped by the Class Deans' office to make an appointment. Not bad for pre-9 AM work). And you know, I have this virus that makes you tired and stuff, so I have a good reason for sleeping, but still. I'd like to think I have some control over when I wake up. But for the past couple of weeks, my body has refused to awaken till it was good and ready.

I decided not to sign up for the ecology field trip to Maine this weekend, even though I REALLY want to and they give us free lobster, because if I went I would probably die. Or at least, get sicker. I'd probably catch the Maine Plague while I was there, or something.

Speaking of ecology, who remembers how to do algebra? Because I don't remember and apparently we get to use logarithms a lot. Now, I know what logarithms ARE; they are those things that multiply stuff by factors of ten like the pH scale. But I DON'T remember how to use them, or when to use them. Who are my smart calculus people? Christine? Joshua?

I also have to learn Excel for this class, but I think I can do that on my own. There are practice data thingies set up for us in Burton Hall. I think knowing Excel is going to be one of those good job skill things.

Speaking of which, I still don't have a job, I still refuse to do office work, and I am still frustrated.

I can't eat dinner today because everything is too pointy. I just had some V8, and I will probably go buy some soup at Davis later. I had minestrone for lunch, but it was rather pathetic minestrone with no potatoes and one disembowled kidney bean in my bowl. Sad, sad.

I think I will go downtown and get my sister her birthday present so I can give it to her when she and Emily-her-nifty-suitemate come to call.

There is 9/11 memorial-type stuff going on tonight, but I am not going because I don't like that sort of thing and I have to watch Gilmore Girls. Nothing is going to get in the way of my Gilmore Girls. I am going to be singing at a thing tomorrow at 12:30 in honor of the anniversary, which I think will be nice. Music is my preferred method of prayer/remembrance/emotion.

Tomorrow I have tap dancing. I will bring my jazz shoes and order taps from Kiara's catalogue.

And Sonnet. Sonnet is going to get some really bad poetry from me soon, but not right now because I am depressed.

sonnet, depression, food, 9/11, ecology, mono
