phone screen is still blank......no real surprise there. Electronics working in a consistant fashion is obviously not in the cards for me. Therefore I now have to carry it around, checking my voice mail everytime I leave it unattended, plus there is always the fact that I use it as my primary alarm clock (not to mention my primary watch) so when I set the alarm (basically from memory sequencing) I am never able to really sleep because I am too worried that I have set the time wrong and that it will not go off and wake me up in time. This morning in particular I woke up at 6am in a dead panic that I had missed my first class.......and the nap during lunch was impossible, the smarter part of my brain wouldn't let my body do it's thing even when all I wanted to do was sleep. Frustrating to say the least.
So I left for school this morning at 8am, went to classes, etc, etc, then went to sign and dine, and finally to Britt's house to make the posters for the big ASL hoopla that is happening Thursday May 18 in the EMU. It's basically going to rock. Unfortunately there have been a lot of set backs this term, people being busy, getting sick, getting injured, being lazy, etc, etc, and we had gotten really far off track. Fortunately we're coming up to the finish line and we're still standing, so yay for us. We had a blast painting signs (on sheets and poster board) and putting hand prints and ASL signs on everything. PLUS, I got a free ASL Club te-shirt.....rock on! Too bad I didn't get home until about 20 minutes ago.....it's been a long day to say the least.
Strangely enough my eyes (and body) are freakishly tired, while my mind is vividly awake and ready to keep going. I don't think that I'm ready to go to bed now (although a certain someone isn't here to entertain me either) so I'm not really sure what I'm going to do. Perhaps I will attempt to get addicted to "six feet under" a HBO TV series that my roomate insists that I watch, or maybe I will just get some Dan Brown reading in.....the choices are seriously endless. (You snooze you lose Mike.....guess you should work on your online timing :o)
