I keep getting confused by how late it stays light out. Seven-thirty or not, it just seems -wrong- to go get dinner before sunset. I'm still not quite caught up to what month it is after being dead to the world for most of February ( Read more... )

I went home this weekend to help move furniture and stuff into the new house. Our furniture is all over there now, but we're still living in the old house because we couldn't get an occupancy permit for the new one... there are all kinds of things that just aren't finished yet: no doorknobs, most of the kitchen appliances not installed (our sink ( Read more... )

It's storming like whoa outside. With lightning an' stuff ( Read more... )

The weather is beautiful today. It's been warm enough that there's hardly any snow left... except right in front of my building, for some reason. It faces north-ish, so I suppose it's in shadow most of the time or something. But the sidewalks are clear, so I can ride my bike now, which makes it so much easier to get around campus. And I love my ( Read more... )

I got my hair cut today. Rather a lot of it, actually. About halfway through I realized I was starting to look like B'Elanna from Star Trek Voyager. (Minus the half-Klingon part, obviously. It's kind of funny because I didn't do that on purpose, but I did always used to want to be her. ...And come to think of it, she was the only character I really ( Read more... )

So. The younger brothers are screaming at each other, playing baseball in the kitchen, and accusing the swim team of taking steroids which will turn them into giant fish monsters. All is normal in the realm of... something ( Read more... )

I am home for nearly-the-end-of-winter break. (It's kinda warm, so maybe it could be called spring. We'll see about that.) Brought my betta fish home. I think the car ride stressed him out, because he turned red. But he's mostly back to normal now. My brother Doug thinks that David Bowie told him to put a plastic penguin in the fishbowl. We didn't ( Read more... )

Every time I think about posting here, I realize I have nothing particularly interesting to say ( Read more... )

I will probably be going to school tomorrow afternoon... I'm planning to go back home in the evening, though, because I'm still just too weak to be walking around campus. Today I went grocery shopping with my mom, and when we got home I was so exhausted that I just slept for a few hours. I'm doing a lot better, but it's looking like it'll be a long ( Read more... )

I'm getting better slowly... I'm still coughing a lot, but not as much, and I still can't walk or stand for more than a few minutes at a time without getting out of breath. I feel so pathetic. I'm perfectly fine as long as I'm just lying on the couch, but I can't -do- anything. Aaarghh. Bored out of my mind. I wish I hadn't left the Scarf of Doom ( Read more... )
