It is the last (also maybe the third) blue October sky of the year and I'm stuck inside. Stupid H1N1. I had a fever for less than 24 hours, but I'm still lightheaded and dizzy.
My parents are out of town and though I'm glad they're seeing the world I do wish I could just pick up the phone and call them. Murad's been super busy with stuff, and everyone else I know was on screw dates last night (Screw Your Roommate night = set up your roommate on a blind date). Last night I went just about stir crazy. I watched a bunch of Netflix Instant Watch stuff, sometimes interrupted to peer at the noisy kids in the parking lot outside my window. I'm actually becoming the old lonely meddling neighbor lady; bit terrifying, really.
I need to get on stuff. Put a resume together, figure out a summer job, do lots and lots of homework. I feel like this one stupid term has tremendous opportunities for me that are slipping through my fingers and this is the one chance I'll ever have to do (what? I don't even know) and I'm messing it up. It's so stupid. Gah. I want to go on a walk.
