Okay, so today I did something I never, ever in a million years thought I would ever be able to do. I bought a pair of shorts...size 3!!!! I'm moving up in life! Okay, so the clothes at this store run a little smaller than usual. Still, I stand by my original exclamation points. Size 3!!!! Of course, Jenny was mad because she had to go up two ( Read more... )

They evacuated the Northern section of Bradford last night, as well as parts of Hopkinton and Ashaway. My neighborhood wasn't affected, thank God. Those areas were downwind, I guess. I stepped outside late last night (around 1) to let Leo in and I could smell it. Have you ever smelled a chemical fire? It was disgusting. *Shudder* They ( Read more... )

The BDA up the road from me is on fire. You know, that chemical plant with toxic dyes that they use to dye clothing and other goods? Yeah. Sounds pretty bad too. Ambulances, firetrucks and police cars, oh my! We've been hearing sirens for a few hours now. Helicopters, too. Just watched a breaking news report on nbc on it, but it wasn't very ( Read more... )

Okay, so things on the major explosion site are starting to stabilize. There's still tension but it's nowhere near as bad as it was a week and a half ago. So that's, well, better anyway. But I have a feeling that other areas of my life are going to reach boiling point pretty soon. But that's a whole other entry for a whole other day. But ( Read more... )

Ok, at first I tried to stay neutral. I tried not to favor one person over the other. But then a line got crossed that shouldn't have been crossed. Actually, that line should not have even existed to be crossed. I'm sorry, but when a friend of mine is treated like a criminal and is threatened with arrest, I'm going to be defensive. I'm going ( Read more... )

Can anything else go wrong this semester? It's to the point that I actually would like to know the answer to that question so I can make reservations at the nearest psychiatric facility if I need to. Seriously, I'm wondering who's next and what's gonna happen to them. Who else is going to die, come within 2 feet of dying, get arrested, be ( Read more... )

Didn't I used to update this journal every 4 days or so? What happened? Well, it's almost one in the morning and I'm taking a break from studying for my exam. It's been about a half-hour break. But hey, I deserve it. These next two weeks should be interesting. I have exams and papers coming out of my ears. But I think I'll do pretty well. I ( Read more... )

It's SO good to be home! Leo went nuts when I walked through the door, I love my baby. Haven't had the chance to hit up the beach yet, working on that. Maybe tomorrow. I have a dentist appointment tomorrow, hopefully it won't be too painful. Working at Kidz this afternoon, a birthday party. 4-6 year olds I think, judging from the menu. Kidz ( Read more... )

Yeah, it's been awhile. I really should be working on my research paper that's due tomorrow, but that would be silly, wouldn't it? God, I'm SO ready for Easter break. I've been ready for Easter break since Spring Break. Forget Easter break, I've been ready for summer break since before Christmas break. My nerves are starting to break. I'm ( Read more... )

Ok, so I have a few minutes before class. We're pretty much in the final stages of house-hunting now. We've pretty much settled on the little blue cottage on the lake. It's going to be quite the adventure, let me tell you. I'm excited for it, though. It's two bedrooms with a pull-out couch in the living room. So that's me and Katie in one ( Read more... )
