I had my hair chemically straightened, called relaxed. We're all hoping it makes my hair easier to do, since I'm not really into doing my hair... or wearing makeup... or wearing heels... or wearing girls' jeans... I really hate being a girl. If I didn't like penis so much I'd just get a sex change so people stopped expectign me to act feminine. I'm not even a tomboy... I'm just really shitty at being female. It was so much easier in high school when I wore JNCOs and hoodies and no one asked me to act like I give a damn about being female.
In other news, I am slowly grasping the idea of JavaScript... It's hard, though. I'm not real great with logical stuff. JavaScript is so... math-parallel... It's been hard, but I'm ahead of the class. I was amazed. I thought, for sure, that Anastasia would have flown past me and finished the book already. I'm flip flopping between the JS book and building my portfolio website. I intend of adding some kind of JavaScript to my site to make it more... interactive, I guess... Just more awesome is what my mind wants to say, though.
My portfolio website means that I need to go in, redo some projects, do some better projects, and generally update my portfolio. Gina's helping me do a resume, and she's going to help me try to get a job at a designing firm. She asked what I wanted to do when I got out of school and I had to think about it. I like magazine spreads and adverts and things. They're fun to design. I hate web design... So none of that... Lol. She's so funny.
Gina is doing the field trip because I told her I'm a member of ADCD but don't go to the events because I'm scared to go alone. So she set up a networking event field trip through AIGA (since it's free) and we're hoping more people besides her, Katherine and myself go. It'll be fun! It's down at the Art Museum. ^_^ Once I get through one, then I can probably do it solo... I just need to know what to expect... you know?
I'm starting a new diet on Monday (when I get paid). It's the Sacred Heart Cardiac Weightloss Diet.
You get this vegetable soup to eat whenever you're hungry. As much as you want. The more you eat, the more you lose, supposedly. Then there are different things to eat each day of the week. Fruit, then veggies, then fruit & veggies, then bananas and skim milk, beef & tomatoes, beef & veggies, brown rice and milk... It's guaranteed to lose 10-17lbs in a week. my grandaddy had to it a long time ago... that's why we have it.
I'm hoping it works... Worked for him and it's worked for mom before. So... I just have to stick to it. Red even said he'd do it with me.
Red's been sleeping in the bed with me again. He's also cut down on the pain killers. His thumb looks good... clean anyway. It's pretty icky to see, really... but I haven't snapped a new picture yet. All stitched up and all. He's just glad it's almost over, you know? He'll be back to work, soon, and we'll all be happier. He's gotten SO BORED at home... but it led to some cleaning and he organized his computer. So that's a win.
And... yeah. I'm doing okay, I guess... Just got a bad start to the day.
