I'm ridiculous.
but it's okay. a couple shitty days but i think everything is looking up. putting it in perspective or something, i guess.
i haven't updated in a long time. nothing useful, at least.
i went to the bronx zoo and got some sweet pics, maybe i'll post some later. for vacation though, that's really it.
Graduation, summer, etc. is all coming faster than i expected. i am still thinking about Ohio. but i'm also thinking i don't know. I mean, i know i don't have to stay there forever. And it seems doable. As long as i can get a job, it seems doable. Since i can't afford to go and stay in hotel for the entire job search, i'm thinking about maybe staying with someone for a week or two while i look. because i can't afford to get an apartment without having a job. my savings might cover the rent and everything for a short time, but if it didn't work out, i'd end up back here with nothing at all.
if i stay in "school" my father has to keep my health insurance. Which means i can take like, one or two online classes and i'm good.
~~ yesterday was pretty fun. Ms. Duryea came over and talked for nineteen hours. Her husband called and she's like "i'm on home teaching...alex....no, i dropped him! This is Alex's house. We just drink tea and....do yoga!" it was funny. she talked about this play i really want to go to. maybe some thursday or something. i don't know.
anyway, Aidan's been sick. Like, he's just been acting weird. Eating weird, doing weird things. But he also hadn't drank in about two weeks and started hiding under his newspaper. I kept putting it off to see if he got better but he was really mellow and lethargic yesterday so i wrapped him in a towel and me and mom took him in torrential rain to the reptile center.
Justin and Fern were both there which was good because if they weren't i'd have taken him to the vet and spent ridiculous money on nothing...turns out the freak is trying to hibernate (some beardeds do, some don't) IN LATE APRIL. Fool. I was so worried, like almost crying (shuttup yes i cry over my pet lizard) and he's just being insane.
after yesterday, however, i'm pretty sure his new philosophy is "don't sleep". He wouldn't drink so Justin held him down and pried his mouth open and shoved water in his mouth, then clipped his nails, and pinched him a bunch to see if he was dehydrated. Oh, and prodded his stomach all over to see if he had a blockage.
I'M GETTING A TARANTULA! She's a baby avicularia versicolor i'm naming Sapphira. She's bright blue and adorable! I can't wait. (i picked her out yesterday. that was the fun part.)

Other than that, i got nothing. Oh, i cut 10 inches off my hair. I hate it.
