Quick post before sleep
Well, the computer has issues. My IT Goddess - Trina - turned it on yesterday and said, "Well, it's obviously the hard drive." Great. Just great. She started looking through and told me that my hard drive has "bad spots" - basically something that just happens with time. She would be able to save the parts of the hard drive that didn't have " ( Read more... ) -
"Agony, though it's different for each"
This night has dissolved into agony, absolute agony. The only good thing that I can say is that I have not yet cried - which is saying something for me. Although in my defense, I think I cry a lot less these days when I'm frustrated with something...I suppose something in my brain finally said, "Hmm, tears solve nothing ( Read more... ) -
Never enough
It's been almost two years now since I traveled to Poland & Israel and I realized today, I never got very far in talking about that. Not in this journal, not in my paper journal, not in a scrapbook ( Read more... ) -
Feeling the burn
Last week, grad classes started up again. Of course, I missed 2 of my 3 classes because of my bronchitis, but my professors kindly emailed me the syllabi for their classes so I would be behind. I'm in the midst of doing readings for my Tuesday night class on intelligence testing, and already I want to throw the book at my professor. He assigned ( Read more... ) -
Book of Days
My dad passed on a book to me this year. It's called "The Book of Days" and it's this beautifully bound Folio Society book. Every day gives you a different passage of something to read by someone famouse...a diary entry, a letter, something like that. I fell a little bit behind this week due to my bronchitis (turns out that's what this is...no ( Read more... ) -

New Year
You know, I remember when I first got this journal, when Suzy first gave me the code to start it. I remember posting in here daily, sometimes multiple times in a day. I remember checking posts incessantly to see if anything new had happened. Now, it seems, I rarely check to see what people are posting and months can pass without me writing about ( Read more... ) -
It's all fun and games...till somebody misses their flight
Like I said, I've been seriously remiss in posting. Some days, it feels like everything is on high speed. I get so much done and do so many things that at the end of the day I feel satisfied, but I'm left looking back and thinking, "Oh God, where's my time to just chill?" So this adventure that I'm about to tell you happened back in the middle ( Read more... ) -
I can see clearly now, my contacts are gone
Okay, so I have been seriously remiss in posting to this. When I logged in, I saw that it had been four weeks since my last post and thought, "No way...so much has happened between now and then!" And yet, I've written about none of it ( Read more... ) -
Never a break
I am so pissed off right now. To start with, my money - all of it - is nearly gone. I've had to keep dipping into my savings to pay for bills, since I'm making a lot less money now that I'm part-time. Finding a second job - or a whole new job - is not going well at all. I've been babysitting to make some extra money, but those jobs are few and ( Read more... )
