As simple and complex as that.  Well, fighting off a bad chest cold doesn't help, nor does news from one I care about.  Eh, I just want to stay in bed/the couch and watch Donnie Darko or maybe read the next Lord of the Rings book.  I don't want to go outside and freeze and feel even sicker.  Not today.  Blah.  End of rant ( Read more... )

Usually, I don't have much trouble falling asleep.  I'll admit, I'm a night owl, and it's much easier for me to stay up late than to get up early.  However, I like sleeping and can usually do it with ease.

Perhaps a few too many late nights caught up with me.  Last night, I fell asleep on the couch a little before 10 p.m. (quite early for me) while ( Read more... )

Tomorrow is it. Despite extra unexpected expenses I've built up (read the last post), I'm going to go through with the lasik/prk. It's tomorrow afternoon. Since I'll have PRK rather than normal lasik, the recovery will take a bit of time. A part of me is more nervous about feeling helpless and depending on others for a few days rather than ( Read more... )

A long day. metro ride. work, work, work. metro ride. learning that i managed to cause $700 damage to someone's car (and i didn't damage it while driving to the grocery store or coming back... but no, in the damn parking lot - apparently, vw's are a bit lower than what i'm used to... also, apparently, if you pull in a bit too far, when mark ( Read more... )

Today was a lazy day... and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I didn't even let myself feel guilty for my lack of anything. I slept in, then I stayed in bed for a while and finished reading A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius. I'm still not sure what I think of it. I enjoyed it... but I don't know. It seems like one of those books that the ( Read more... )

In the friends only section, I have a link to my photos page. Feel free to check it out. If you're not a "friend" just let me know.
