Random Ramblings

First and foremost, I would like to say that Starbucks Coffee Almond Fudge ice cream is just about the best thing ever invented. Ever. You should go buy some now. I had no idea it existed. What a wondrous turn of events in this time of terrible desperation and self-loathing! It's coffee-flavored ice cream, smooth and thick with like, a ton of sugar added, with a huge stripe of fudge all through it, and whole almonds in every two or three spoonfulls. I can't get enough. I must buy more.

Secondly, my art flow, as you may have noticed, has nearly completely died away. I now have papers due almost every single day, and I was unfortunate enough to have enrolled in a Java programming course, which is almost completely beyond my comprehension. So my schedule now consists of:

Monday: Communication Disorders: Anatomy and Physiology, English discussion section, Philosophy, English lecture. Write papers all night.
Tuesday and Thursday: Work from 11:30-3:00pm, Java (woe, lament) Homework: Programming D:
Wednesday and Friday: Again, CD: A&P, Phil, Eng lecture. Write papers.
Saturday and Sunday: Work from 11:30-6:00 pm both nights, weekly english assignment due by 6pm Sunday (online)

How, exactly, did I get myself into this mess? It boggles the mind. That's aside from the fact that I'm running out of money fast and I'm slowly but surely losing my sanity as I try to complete contest prizes and random art bits that I've started.

OH! and how great is this: At work a couple of days ago, we were told by some random customer that the manager told her we would be closing down in two weeks. Nice. No one that I've talked to who works there seems to know anything about it. I asked one guy who's kind of a big-wig with the company, and he basically hinted that it was true, but said that he'd be in trouble if he actually said anything to me. So when were they planning on letting us know? One day when we show up for work and the doors are locked and there's a little sign that says "SORRY - OUT OF BUSINESS"...EH? I really don't want to lose this job, so I'm terrified of beginning the search for a new one, but at the same time I need money, and my priorities are completely clashing with the fact.

On the up-side: Zach was a total sweetheart and belied his own techno-lust and bought Olivia's laptop from her for me to do homework on! It helps out so much - and even at work, I can sit upstairs in the dark writing papers and programs (or playing online games), and when I get more accustomed to having this crazy workload on me, I may be able to take my mini tablet and get some drawing in :D

So now you know - and knowing is half the battle!

work, life, random
