I just pulled out of Easter dinner with my folks and some other family. I feel like a shit, but I have a lot of school stuff to do, which I will never get done on Saturday, which is all due on Sunday ( Read more... )

I have been neglecting this journal. Between Vox, Twitter, and my FatJournal (the LJ I created when I joined one of the weight loss communities on here so that everything wouldn't get jumbled together under this account), this particular journal is getting the short end of the stick. Or some other such euphemism ( Read more... )

I woke up this morning after having this incredible dream - I was with a musclebound soldier, an Army man, WITH him with him, like relationshipped. We were sitting very close, on the floor against the wall of someplace that was white, and I had my arms wrapped around the one of his that was next to me. He kept telling me how much he loved me, and ( Read more... )

Yet again, the house was broken and entered. This time they only took the alcohol out of one drawer of the liquor cabinet. This shit is fucked up.

Sunday my car got vandalized. Rocks hurled at it, alarm went off, just bad times. Yesterday morning, the house got broken into, and they stole my mom's truck, keys to my dad's truck and the house, and my dad's wallet. The police think that the two are connected. My first reaction, after the shock of the house thing wearing off (they broke in ( Read more... )

My car got vandalized in my driveway. Again. Only this time, it was the only car on my street that got hit. There are two big chunks of sidewalk-esque concrete in my driveway, and two big welts in the glass of my passenger side cargo area window, but the glass didn't break. I called the police non-emergency line, and my options were to either ( Read more... )

The reunion is tonight, and I am definitely not going. I wasn't friends with most of them then, so why should I not see my actual friends tonight to go see them? I spoke to the one person I really wanted to see earlier this week, and we're getting together next week for dinner. I'm more excited about that than seeing anyone else ( Read more... )

Today's goal: bake at least two batches of cookies. The one that I really want to get accomplished is a Mexican chocolate icebox cookie - I tried these once, with a different recipe, and they tasted more like flour than chocolate or cayenne. Plus, since the dough has to chill (obviously) before I can cut and bake them, I can knock that dough out ( Read more... )

My work crush is now officially a "stay away from that guy" situation. He found me on myspace. Not weird, but I share a first AND last name with an indie pop darling that everyone seems to love - I don't show up until you've gone through 15 pages of "me," with a profile name that has nothing to do with my first OR last names, a picture that is ( Read more... )

I came up with a great idea today after reading something on Lifehacker. Bank of America has a program called Keep The Change, where every time you use your debit card, they deposit the difference between your purchase and the next highest dollar amount into your savings account. I'm not about to start using a for-profit bank just for something I ( Read more... )
