Stuart and I are leaving Atlanta for Wilmington August 5th. We'll be spending most of the 4th packing and loading up a truck. All so I can report to work on the 7th ( Read more... )

Despite the profound disappointment that has been the last 72 hours, the boy did buy me books with which to amuse myself. Three in fact, though he borrowed my replacement copy of American Gods fairly immediately. I get to see my Pedro tonight. And I get to see Chelcie tomorrow. So things aren't entirely bad.

I am not in a good mood. I'm trying to find people that seen to have vanished. Leading me to assume that both are just avoiding me, and I may just have to get over any hurt feelings. My evening and two days of relaxtion got messed up by a dead car and scheduling confusion. I need bras, but cannot afford them. I just got patted on the shoulder by a ( Read more... )

I *was* going to watch The Orphanage with mom, but she's being stubborn about giving in to the proper horror movie experience (lights off, NO interruptions, etc). Now I have no one to watch it with, and another essential aspect of watching horror movies is watching them with other people. So...anybody wanna watch The Orphanage? I already own it.

After a stressful year, graduation celebrations, and going out of town, I find my pants are fighting me. Thus, I've started an effort in trying to eat better and exercise more. This involves thrice weekly gym trips,daily sit-ups, eating better food where I can, and controlling portions where I can't (cough home cough). I'm gauging progress by a ( Read more... )

The Wilmington trip went well. We got our housing options pretty well narrowed down. So that's a plus. The city itself is your basic city that built around the highway (think the unpretty part of Savannah), so nothing grand. But the beaches (we saw two of the three) are pretty. That's a plus. The campus is huge. We found a couple pretty nifty ( Read more... )

I don't want to be an adult anymore. There's too much involved and its all kind of terrifying. I don't trust my ability to handle the responsibility and the decisions that need to be made. Can I just go to bed for the next 10 or 20 years?

I'm having some strange issues with really wanting to be in the future now mixed with the ever-present money stress and its making me worry about dumb things, like financing my own hazy, distant wedding. I usually end up feeling rather dumb. Especially when the great irony is I'm trying to budget the distant future, and I have yet to figure out how ( Read more... )

So, I shouldn't brag but ....

I'm graduating summa cum laude!

And my (forner) advisor is probably one of the best people in the world.

So, I'm just starting to drift off when some sort of crazy chanting/wailing starts. (Mind you it almost 4am). The source is most likely the unstable upstairs neighbor lady, but I freaked me out enough that I'm fully awake now. Also- there's an error in my transcripts that means the difference between graduating magna or summa cum laude. (Yes I am ( Read more... )
