Dark Come Soon

Worked all weekend. Store manager lies so much, want to find a new job.
Dinner with Dad and Michele after work. Got carded when I asked for wine, and the server gave me a really full glass. He commented that I had just turned 21 this year, so that's probably why he gave me so much.

Dad: He (the server) doesn't like me.
Me: Why?
Dad: 'Cause I'm white
Me: Well, I'm whiter than you and he seems to like me fine
Dad: *laughs*

Dad likes to say racist or bigoted things to try and get a rise out of me. He's done it for years, and I've learned to just roll with it and try and come up with a witty response. Though if I'm in a bad mood you can bet that he'll get an earful for saying something stupid or racist.

Went to Michelle's (the non-pregnant one) to watch the newest Dexter episode with her and Stacey. Only half of the episode was recorded. Felt tired after nearly 10 hours at work and sick from the cold and allergies, so I went home even though it would have been fun to visit longer.
Japanese Oral Final tomorrow afternoon. Looking at apartments before that, hopefully one will work out.
Covering part of a shift at work on Tuesday night for the new girl Briana. She works really hard, and has two jobs so I want to help her out as much as possible. As long as she's cleaning up the animal cages then I don't have to. Not nearly as much, anyways.
Final paper in Anthropology due Thursday, and I haven't read the book for it yet.
EU seminar final on Thursday. Ugh, that's going to be tough.
Celtic Fringe (history) final on Friday. Ugh, another hard one.

I'm just going to keep trudging along until finals are over. There's no other option but to keep at it, and the end is almost here. I haven't forgotten the promise to myself about confessing to Michelle, and have begun to get nervous and feel wishy-washy about it TBH. BUT there's no spare time or energy to spare on those emotions and worries right now.
Nose, meet the grindstone. You two are going to be close friends for the next week.

Today's lyrics are from the song currently stuck in my head. Thought I'd branch out a bit today and listen to something other than Tegan and Sara.

"Like drinking poison, like eating glass
It's so cold in this house
Come and show me how it was"
