(no subject)
i guess i should take it as a sign that my animals need cuddling when all four have joined forces to drag paper wads out of the trash cans, decorating the floors in all four rooms. now i have a dog on each side and a cat on each foot.
my body is so full of sudafed, cheap nasal decongestant, and throat coat tea that i'm kind of in a spacey state of mind. i'm anxious, but too lethargic to move. i have coherant thoughts, but they don't seem to relate to one another. the underside of my nose is so chapped it feels like 90 grain sandpaper from constant blowing. it probably doesn't help that i'm too cheap to buy fluffy soft tissues, so i'm grabbing at any napkin, paper towel, or toilet paper roll i find close by. but really, its kind of one or the other, the medicine or the tissues, but never both. i don't want to feel like i'm supplying a freakin' hospital, nor do i want to contribute any more money to industries waiting for the cold season to hit. stubborn and counter-intuitive, i know.
its a quiet night alone with cat power in the background and i feel like i should pound out some type of resolution list. just a few things i've yet to accomplish in the many years of formally announcing my resolutions, and a few goals to make 2007 memorable:
* start a savings account. i had to write this one first because its the one i hate the most. goodbye shoes and earrings on a whim, scented oil, extra books, second cups of coffee, and social drinking. but really, i was in bed scaring myself to death last night between nose-blowing, worrying about how to pay for grad school, as well as how i'll carry my own insurance and car repair bills when i hit 2-5. so yah. a fucking savings account. i guess i'll thank myself later.
* try try try to be a little less negative, a little more supportive, and less quick to judge. this also goes against every fiber of my being, but i think its necessary to the process of growing up. i'm workin' on it.
* go on a freakin' vacation. preferably the beach. in a hotel. also, weekend and day trips more often.
* apply myself to school. i can do the bare minimum and usually still get an A, but i'm dissapointed in the (lack of) knowledge i truly take away from my classes. i couldn't even remember the theses for my last semester's final papers the other day.
* drink socially in the most responsible way possible. that means itty bitty baby sips.
