I have spent all morning coughing and kleenexing my nose. I feel fine though. Funny how you can party like crazy for as long as you like and show no signs of weakness, but once you sleep a full night, all hell breaks loose within. Same with boozers and drug guzzlers who trade years of health for a few bleak passionate hours where they can forget ( Read more... )

Last night I just stayed home and watched movies, played with the cats and ate popcorn. There was a party, but the last time I went to a party at this particular place it nearly traumatized me to my last nerve, and so I was content in my negation in going. I felt even more validated as the evening went on and I received texts from those there that ( Read more... )

Classes are starting soon and I'm excited. I am getting my sleep schedule back on track. I enjoy my new place. I am happy. My closet has a full body mirror and that kind of freaks me out at night. I live with cats again and realized I missed living with cats. I am a cat person. The disabled scholarship book made me queasy. The scholarships for burn ( Read more... )

Last night I went out. Nice in theory, but I didn't drink and so as the rest danced out their booze I sat and relaxed o the couch. This was no problem for me but disconcerted others, and so I was forced into the discomfort of dancing sober. When I am drunk my dancing is little more than commanding a lot of space by flailing, but sober I couldn't do ( Read more... )

These are the best artistic things I came across this year, not always new and in no order, but new to me ( Read more... )

The thing I like most about moving is getting rid of everything. I don't like having a lot of excess crap laying around, which is why I never really got into painting, it's just too messy. Right now, I'm getting ready to move a a couple miles, but I'm still tossing a lot of crap. I imagine my ideal living place to be a 2 bedroom, where my bedroom ( Read more... )

The holidays are a complex mix of joy and exertion. I have seen so many people, some of which I expected and some who've made unexpected arrivals, and of course all of them want to go out and celebrate. This has led to very long nights spent in a few places repeatedly. I feel time could have been spent better, but people seemed happy and that's all ( Read more... )

My life is too psychological. I need to start accepting things and admitting I am mortal. I got some shit to do.

I was supposed to go out tonight but after hiking today just sort of napped through 'gathering people up' time. I watched a bit of Citizen Kane, but didn't feel like finishing it, can't focus on reading, started pondering whether 'disappointment was liberating', but am too sleepy to write out a full essay on it. I hate naps that go on too long! ( Read more... )

Last night our power was out for six hours, (5-11 p.m.). I really had no problem with it, but my roommates were antsy with boredom. We gathered around the fireplace and played poker. I only regretted not having anything to drink. Perhaps it's a sign of me being boring, but a few hours in a dark house with a fireplace going and snow outside is great ( Read more... )
