Random check in
So I got sick yesterday. Managed to catch my niece's stomach bug (after the doctor's insisted up and down she was no longer contagious) and with that spent roughly 18 hours yesterday asleep, conked out on my couch and unable to eat anything except one popcycle, a couple of handfuls of Chedder and Sour Cream chips (what, it's almost the same as ( Read more... ) -
(Untitled)
So Destin was a lot of fun but the drive nearly killed me. Well, drive back, I should say, because the one down wasn't half bad. Coming back though? Yeah, a pleasure I wouldn't mind never repeating ( Read more... ) -
Ow
I hurt myself today, but it wasn't to see if I could still feel. No needles either, unless you count the torture implements of the dentist (because those freaking hook shaped things? Needle torture all the frigging way, I'm telling you) but I still hurt myself. Doing what, you ask? Oh, I'll tell you ( Read more... ) -
Huh
So, apparently it's been something like eleven weeks since last I posted. Which is somewhat ridiculous, excepting that you look at my other LJ, which hasn't seen an update in well over two years. And it's been a fairly busy eleven weeks. The holidays about damn near killed me, plus there was the trip up to the wilds of Chicago, the discovering ( Read more... ) -
Well then
So it turns out that I can't graduate in the spring unless I take a class I have literally no interest in. I mean, no interest. See, I've only three classes left to go before I finish and of them, I'm signed up for two next semester. These two are both history courses, on on the medieval Middle East and the other on the ancient Mediterranean. ( Read more... ) -
meh
I was late with my rent by a day (forgot it was November, don't ask how) and had to pay an extra $250 in penalties. Went to vote and it turns out I had to drive down to an elementary school by my old apartment to do so. Slept through my first class (had already decided to skip the second). My major term project is due on Thursday and I've all of ( Read more... ) -
The literary adventures of the cable deprived
So I am about to embark on a grand experiment. For the first time since I was nine, I will be without cable for several months. "O, no!" I hear you gasp. "Why would you do such a thing to yourself? Think of the TrueBlood! Think of South Park! Think of Jon Stewart!!" To which I've to reply that Jon Stewart will be very much missed, South Park ( Read more... ) -
I think I'm allergic to Mondays
Seriously, it seems every Monday I wake up tired and unfocused, usually with some sort of physical issue that I want to be all hypochondrical about. Today it's a stuffy head and general exhaustion, which is somewhat ridiculous. I went to bed around 2:30 and was up at 7:30 to do my two hour (okay, in this case more of an hour and a half) Monday ( Read more... ) -
Opportunities and drinking should not be combined
Not that I did much drinking this weekend, but I will say that the servers at my boss' son's bar mitzvah did not, in any way, skimp on the vodka. Also, they had a way of mixing it with cranberry juice that was beyond tasty. That for Smirnoff has much less of a bite than I'd been lead to believe, which is also possible. The kid in question did a ( Read more... ) -
unexpected consequences of awesome things
Guess who's getting a free computer!
Guess who's getting a free computer with Vista!
Yeah, I know.
On the plus side, the Simpsons "Kiss Kiss Bang Bangalore" is playing, I think I aced my History of the Near East midterm, and I've a brilliant concept regarding finding hope in nothingness to write about for my other midterm. Score!
