What do you do when your apathy and your ennui are engaged in a steel cage death match? And who should you be rooting for?

Wow, been swamped by school and slacking in regards to school for a while. Finishing the last paper tonight and just got 5 finals to go and I can collapse. Then I'll swear not to procrastinate as much next term (a blatant lie!). At least next term only has 2 classes waiting for me and then I graduate and return to the real world. I...

The shitty rain has been coming down for several days now. Normally I love the rain, except when I have to share the roads with morons. So, another song.

It was long ago.
It seems like yesterday.
I saw you standing in the rain,
Then I heard you say,

"I want to love, but it comes out wrong.
I want to live, but I don't...

Sometimes I just like posting songs:

Layin' on my back
In the newly mown grass
Rain is coming down
But I know the clouds will pass
You bring me tea
Say "the babe's a-sleepin'"
Lay down beside me
Love ain't for keeping

-- The Who, Love Ain't For Keeping

Good way to start the weekend.

Holy Shit! I had a sudden burst of insight the other day as I crawled out of bed while considering the dream I had just had. I am SO married that I'm married in my dreams. How fucked up is that? I can't escape being married even in my fantasies. "I'm sorry, super-hot imaginary nympho of my dreams. I have a wife."

It'll be 13...

I never realized how terminally dull American history is outside of a war. And the books tend to gloss over those in a few paragraphs yet spend chapters on tariffs and politics. It's not even good politics where people plotted on each other and there were assassinations or poison or wars. It's just old white men in suits harumphing a lot. Even in a 6...

Looking at 7 classes and 21 credits in the Fall term. Damn. Better start stocking up on caffeine. That's an estimated 12-14 papers since they're all History classes.

I feel a melancholy mood coming on. Kind of mood where I'm sitting in a dark room with a drink in my hand as the rain taps against my window. Slow jazz plays and the saxophone echoes...

Update Edition:

Finished the Spring Semester with 4 As and 1 F (expected). Still trying to find out what Miami-Dade College wants from me which is keeping me from registering for summer classes. Registered for Fall classes though I need to declare my double-major before Financial Aid will give me anymore money (I don't understand why they're trying to stop me from getting further into...

Well, 1 final exam down. Come tomorrow, 3 more to go, on the same day. *sigh* And then a 20 page paper to complete by next Tuesday.

Been listening to old Bowie while studying (how did I not have Station to Station before?). Odd how old Bowie makes me want to paint again. Wish I had the space to bust out an easel and my...

As the end of the semester gets closer I fight harder against my growing apathy. It's a Spring thing. And Fall looks to have turned into poop. Three classes remaining and none really convenient. A 3-hour drive for a 50 minute class, 3 times a week. One of the required classes is with a teacher that I have now and there is no way in...
