I haven't updated in ages. It's not that I've forgotten about you, dear livejournal. I have been up at the beach four days a week all summer, and the connection up there is spotty. When I come home, typically I crash and leave just enough time to regroup and head back up ( Read more... )

Tommy, good luck on your first day of the new job, workin' for the man! We are proud of you over here at Saint Catherines.
Also, I am going to sleep with the I-like-a-boy butterflies, which hasn't happened to me in a while, but is fun nonetheless.

Today was day six off of all gluten/wheat products, and i'm feeling awesome. The crazy carb-fiending came and went, and I have lots of energy and zero stomach upset/pain/discomfort. I'm going to have to get creative and use a shoelace for a belt next week because i'm not going home for another week, and my pants are falling down. I don't know ( Read more... )

I've decided i'm going to ask one of my Sudanese friends at school if I can go with them to Sudan for the 2011 referendum vote. They're all going back to vote, because they're all from Southern Sudan and it's a very important event in the history of their country. They won't be staying long, so I wouldn't be gone for more than a week or two, ( Read more... )

I had the migraine from hell today. I hate getting sick in my situation because, with any other job i'd just call in sick and not worry. That's what sick days are for, that's why they're there. When I get sick with my current job, my cousins are inconvenienced and my aunt is monumentally inconvenienced and then I feel guilty and that makes it ( Read more... )

Today was not the greatest day. My alarm was set for 6 this morning because I spent the night in rochester and needed to be in buffalo by eight. At 5:30 I woke up with a fairly epic migraine: nausea, loss of vision, the works. The depakote helps with them a lot, but this month i've had a bunch of them for some reason. I have to be extremely ( Read more... )

Since I moved to buffalo (actually since the weather got nice,) I have been wanting a single-speed bike to ride the four blocks to work every day. It makes so much sense to leave my car at home (off-street parking in a safer neighborhood,) but walking is boring and takes me a little while ( Read more... )

I'm glad I got to see my uncle yesterday; my cousin called me at 1am telling me he had been rushed to the hospital and he died this afternoon around 1. I feel really badly for my cousins, I know firsthand how shitty a thing it is to go through. A lot of old stuff is being stirred up in me, talking about all of this. It was so hard to leave the ( Read more... )

i'm fully medicated and most likely too cracked out to really make a post, but i'll try regardless ( Read more... )
