Grrraaagghhh
First day of school was Wed. Was rather nice as I love being in school. Especially college. The feel of sitting in a nice comfy chair between classes reading in the library is very nice. Am taking Intro to drawing with the same teacher I had last quarter for Color Theory. She's awesome. Also taking Photoshop. ....And once I figure out how to work that MAC computer... I will be okay. (...How do you turn it on?! ....How do you turn it off?! Where's the button that lets me...Do stuff?!)
Walked to school that morning cause our ride fell through. Didn't mind it. Only I pushed myself too hard. Made it there in a little under half an hour I think. Considering it's all uphill, that was good time. However, as started before, I pushed myself too hard. I should have stopped to take off my jacket or adjusted my bag so it wasn't hanging on one side of my back like it was. As I am no longer used to walking much, I am a little out of shape. But that kind of soreness, I can handle. (my legs...couldn't move them for a day.)
But I think I pulled something in my back. It hurts like a !#@$@^%(&.... Right side, lower back. ....Sadly, a familiar pain. I ruined my back in high school in Marching Band. (played Trombone. Twisted the back in a way I should not have while side marching.) Had to see a chiropractor my senior year....Who said while looking at it, and I quote: "Well... Huh..." Back then, I would see a deep tissue massage therapist at least once a month. That woman was awesome. She came from a family of body builders and insanely strong people. On the side, she was a horse massage therapist if that tells you how friggen strong she was. Of course durring the sessions I would cry my eyes out as she crushed the horrible knots I had in my shoulders and worked my tender back. But afterwards... OMG.
I would kill to have her live in Seattle right now... T_T It's very sad to see me limping along at work. Every time I have to get up, it hurts. But when I sit too long, it hurts. There's just no winning. And of course it took me half a day at work before I remembered that I had pain pills in my drawer... -_-* Go me! However, I wanted vicodine or something by the end of the day. Hopefully it just needs a HOT shower and some time to lay down for a while and maybe a few hours in my portable massage chair... HOPEFULLY.
Because we are now only working three days a week... And can't attend manaditory meetings on Mondays this January... We agreed to come in on the weekends. So this month, we will only get Sundays off. As school is from 9am-7pm. (three hour break between classes).
Say it with me....YAYyyyy....
It is now 11pm. I should have gone to bed... three hours ago. However, that requires standing up. ....and moving... Not to mention ontop of all this... I seem to have insomnia. I think I'm going to go curl up in a ball somewhere now. ....if my back permits.
In other news... Noa and I plan to go see 'Sweeny Todd' on Saturday after work. I don't care what the reviews are or what the 'purists' are saying. I love musicals and I love dark musicals more than anything. And if Buffy has taught me anything, amatures can be awesome.
Am almost finnished with Harry Potter book four. I am really glad I waited this long to read them. I don't care that I know all the spoilers. It's actually fun with this type of book. "Wait... The movie did this... and I'm here in the book... But I remember Noa ranting about this... So...Wait... Which way is it going to go again? Who's the bad guy? How did this movie end anyways?" I amuse myself with my sketchy memory.
I think that I have a favorite character per book so far.
Book two=Lockhart
Book three=Lupin
Book four= Mad Eye Moody (I would want to cosplay this man just so I can walk around yelling, "CONSTANT VIGULANCE!!!!")
And Hagrid is always a favorite.
....Haven't read book one since it came out the first time... And I wasn't impressed with it back then. But maybe that was because of my stupid obsessed friend. So I might not read it again. Just stick to the movie.
Anyways, I have my theories and my observations and my complains just like everyone else. But I'm not sure I am ready to voice them yet until I get further into the books.
Anyone want to tell me what they thought of the characterization of individual characters? Anyone? Anyone?
Anyways... I suppose I have to move now... crap. To bed! My nice soft bed...
Props to anyone that knows who is in my icon. I'll give you a hint: He's ice cold.
OH! Kuro? Any news on the package? >.>
