I am about to spend my 23rd Valentine's Day alone.

( and unrelated LJ bitching )

Why do I so often feel ignored and insignificant? I'd rather have people actually respond to me, even if it is in a negative way, than for them to ignore me or "forget" to respond. Maybe it's selfish, but I'd like to think that I'm at least worth the few minutes it takes to answer a question.

When I was younger I thought I wanted to be a teacher, like both of my parents, but then I realized that all I wanted to do was put stickers on stuff. So, this afternoon I'm going to bounce my way over to the radio station where my brother works and help them stick station-logo stickers onto poker chips for their "Bear's Big Deal" thing this ( Read more... )

Today I had the pleasure of driving through Notre Dame's campus on my way to class on the day before the first home football game of the season. Here's what I have to say about that ( Read more... )

OMG Varekai is on Bravo right now! I love Olga's cane-balancing act after she is kidnapped by the "spiders" and "morphs." Her costume is incredible and the whole act is so gorgeous, except for Icarus who just sits there with a stupid look on his face. Speaking of the "spiders", their triple trapeze routine is my second-favorite, followed by the ( Read more... )

I'm house-sitting for some friends while they're on a cruise, and they have two dogs. Every night they give their dogs those rawhide chew bones, so I give them as well, so that the dogs' routine isn't disrupted. One of the dogs was really stupid tonight and though she could eat a huge chunk of it at once (like, almost the entire thing). Well, duh, ( Read more... )

things that crossed my mind today:

- Why do the technologically inept dumbasses of the world always use the u-scan checkouts at Meijer? Those checkouts are for people like me who can actually complete the checkout process without calling a clerk for assistance at least three times. Please, just use a regular checkout lane. It will be faster for ( Read more... )

Tomorrow I am again leaving to go to Six Flags & then the lake. Hopefully, the events of last year's trip won't repeat themselves. Of course, I'm not planning on getting hurt, but I wasn't really planning on it then either, ha. Superman was the one coaster we didn't get to last time, so Friday we vow to go on it first. And fuck that coaster that is ( Read more... )

Now I remember why I used to sleep during the day and stay up at night. Our house is so freaking loud during the day. I swear, no one in my family knows how to do anything quietly. They stomp around and make more noise than I would have thought possible for three people. My mom is the worst. Right now she's listening to a skanky Reba CD and ( Read more... )

Whee, exactly one month later, here I am again. I am soo bad at this, lol. I have a paper journal for really private stuff, and it kinda makes me neglect this site. =\

See, now I can't even think of a single damned thing to write to fill out this post. Ryan came back from Japan last week but he hasn't been online since then. I miss him. :(
