I forget, sometimes, how lucky I am.

Like most of us, I tend to get bogged down in the vexing minutiae of everyday existence; the paper that's due, the 15 pounds I wish I could lose, this petty arguments with roomates, the he-said-she-said drama that sometimes pervades my social circle. All the little things build up, compounding each other, taking up more and more room...

Loved this post girl!!!

It was sweet to read and made me sit back and agree.

I like what you put about colors (I agree). And parents... the way your worded the apron strings bit, smile cute and well put.

Today I'm thankful for the couch that is so perfectly worn in and comfy, and the sun that is warming me as I lay in the beam. smile

374 words of my Scottish History paper written.


God, I wish I had something more interesting to update about than my glacial progress in paper writing.


I also wish I had dynamite rolls, and was a better guitar player, and could find a fabulous job for this summer, and had the new BTVS comic, and could run a 7 minute mile, and had a private...

I did not know there was a buffy comic. Somehow, I think my bank account would be happier if I could return to that state but now I'm curious.

I've actually written 3 pages of my Linguistic Anthropology paper. In just under an hour. That is pretty much a record breaking amount of work for me to have done all in one go.

Of course, it was so stupefying that I had to take a break to blog about it, but still, good show cirdt!

In other news, I showed up to an Irish...

How are you doing? What happened?

Oh, just so you know, we're meeting at 1pm on Wednesday in between the Rutherford libraries. Let me know if you can make it.

You didn't miss anything but the first batch of group presentations. I'm just bored as all hell without having someone to snicker with in class.

Edited, cause I'm stupid and forgot half of what I wanted to say.

Today I realized the oddest thing.

I was sitting at the piano in my parents' living room, putzing around with some song I've been working on for ages, and I got distracted looking at the family photos my mum has put up on display on top of the piano. There are some old ones of her mother and father as a young couple that she...

-being stuck in wetaskiwin

-trying to read about kinship marriage arrangements and descent systems and how they pertain to the pictish symbol stones for a history paper
-looking online...

Yikes. Try to stay warm. I hope your throat feels better soon.

How are you doing? I miss having someone to make snarky comments in class with. Especially when we're talking on MSN while sitting right next to each other. Feel better soon!

god almighty.

the sore throat i garnered from stealing some of carla's Froot-Loops tea has progressed from an annoyance, to being so wretchedly painful that it's nearly bringing me to tears. it actually woke me up twice last night, my subconscious having interpreted the pain as nightmares about people tearing my throat out.

if this doesn't get any better by tomorrow i'm going to...

Ok, I know I'm a little late in jumping on the "let's make fun of the emo-kids" bandwagon, but this just popped into my head, and since mucking around with photoshop is clearly more fun then heading off to class, I give you:

The next wave of advertisements for CBS, coming soon to a campus, bar, or overpriced coffee shop near you!

John and I have both observed this picture. The consensus: hilarity.

I really ought to go to my Psych class today.

Yep.

Reeeeally ought to go.






Well, at least I have an excuse for being lazy today, as I caught a cold from carla's Froot-Loops tea. What is Froot-Loops tea, you may ask? Froot-Loops tea is a story for another day my friends; a day when my head is not so stuffed up and I...
