so its been forever..
and i suppose i have an excuse, maybe. ah well.
so now i have my own place which brings a new meaning to the idea of meals, since you actually have to plan them, and im a bit rusty. otherwise, i awoke this morning to the melodious sound of hammers hammering and saws sawing. they are putting in the hardwood floor downstairs today, so horrah! after 4 months of such melodious morning sounds, i will be free very soon. oh wait a tic, they just added loud heavy metal music to the mix. yeeks.
i was on my hands and knees yesterday trying to find my elements workbook from freshman year (it was hidden somewhere behind the cat's chair, the one we have for the sole purpose of their claw's enjoyment) and blue comes up and curls up in the cave that my body has become, and just cuddles. how could i move at that point? my kitties are very loveable but are NOT lap cats under any circumstances, so i just had to sit there a bit, and enjoy the offering.
classes are going well, i am unabashed to admit that i have the sweetest schedule on the planet (and i do). i've just now gotten to the latter part of my "beginners guide to zen buddism" which makes me happy, since i've been trying to read it for awhile now. its like i was trying to explain to my sister, when you have an apartment, its like the whole damn thing is YOUR room, and if it isnt neat and relatively organized, i go batty, and start organizing and cleaning.. which leads for a lack of non-program book time. i'm trying to do the japanese thing right now, where you hide most of your stuff in closed off storage and only bring it out when you need it. so far so good, but i still have trouble keeping on top of it when im tired and whiny which does happen. so i guess its a constant battle with myself to just go the extra mile and hang up the shirt i just used and do the dishes already (i hate dishes, and so does the boy, this leads to problemos). ah me. well music theory awaits.
