Silent Rage Now That Fills My Lungs

~~~~ Discontent

Parent's Weekend was fun. Friday Mom and I went to Kona Bistro. It was nice. I want to take Grandma someday. Then we left town and checked into our hotel. It was right next to the mall we normally go to so we walked around there for a while. I got a new coat. Bright pink! On Saturday we went to the open-air shopping center in Hamilton and bought more stuff. Then we had lunch at Panera Bread and went to Borders. I finally got a travel book for Cairo. Then we relaxed in the room for a while and went to dinner at the Old Spaghetti Factory. I got Pasta a la Homer. It was browned butter with cheese on pasta. Apparently legend has it that that's what Homer lived on while he wrote the Iliad. It was okay. But really I got it more for the novelty and I'll probably never get it again. Then we went off to the Steve Miller Band Concert. That was a nice time. They played the Joker and Fly Like an Eagle (obviously) which was really what I wanted to see so I was happy. Sunday simply consisted of a Wal-Mart run before Mom left. It was a nice weekend but honestly I'm looking forward to this week when I have nothing out of the ordinary and nothing major planned this weekend.

Right now there are guys in my room fixing the heater AGAIN! Honestly, I'm looking forward to living in the aparement next year because it was built in 2005 and I won't be expecting these sorts of problems again. I need to go to Cairo next semester just to get out of this room! The heater looks disgusting when the panel's off... I don't want to think about what's growing there!!!

Propelled through all this madness, by your beauty and my sadness

~~~~ Groggy

Flogging Molly is the BEST FUCKING LIVE BAND EVER!!!!

I actually met Dennis Casey and Nathen Maxwell too! Fucking amazing. And apparently I still can't survive a mosh pit without the help of others. We had people looking after us the entire night. Oh well, it was totally worth it. I love Flogginy Molly even more now!

Bittersweet Symphony

~~~~ Sad

So that's it. I'm out of your life and it doesn't matter anymore.

Visit the Zoo and Letters From Hogwarts

~~~~ Exanimate

My window keeps fogging up and it makes me nervous. I really don't want a wet room again... PLEASE!

Yesterday I went to the zoo with Brian! It was so random. We went into the reptile house and I talked to the boa constricter... just like Harry Potter :) But that Boa Constricter was from Madagascar... not South America. Oh well!

This morning Lindsay and I went to breakfast and it was the first time I didn't leave a tip... ever. The chick was potentially the worst waitress I've ever have. Oh well, Bob Evans is over rated... I guess.

It's gonna be a crazy busy week. (Don't make fun of my OCD!)
I know. I'm weird. But now that I've mapped out my week it seems possible. I hope I get home at a reasonable time after Spamalot just because I KNOW I'll be out half the night for the Flogging Molly concert. Oh well, it's all totally worth it!

I'd Wait Here Til Then

~~~~ Hopeful

What a week. I've gotten so much done. The only thing I have left is a Geology reading and a few World History readings. I can get that done after Geology today and then I won't have homework this weekend! Yay! I went to the Rec four times this week, just like I wanted, and I got everything else I wanted done done. That'll make up for the less-organized week I'll have next week. What with Spamalot and Flogging Molly I won't get to the Rec as much as I want. Oh well. It's worth it.

I had no Classics class this morning. It was nice. Except for Mom called at 9:30! Oh well, shit happens. Supposedly my slippers should be here today. Normally the post comes at 1:00 so I'll probably run and get them after World History. Because I can! Because Wells is sooo close! I heart living in this area of campus. It's very addicting. My window is absolutley soaking wet but nothing else is so I guess it's just condensation. It makes me kind sad though because I can't see through it and my rooms looks sad :(

Yay for soft pretzels! :)

but at this moment, all he knew was wood scented with missed opportunity

~~~~ Content

Oh Wednesday, how you torture me so. They're always so long and so jammed-packed. This is my one and only moment to catch me breath and it's a grand total of 15 minutes long. I have to go to a geology exam, then come back here, work some more, go to history discussion group, work some more, get dinner, work some more!, work out, take a shower, and watch Lost. I know, I'm superficial and Lost is just as important to me as homework... I need to sort out my priorities! Lindsay and I made exciting plans for Friday though so I'm pretty okay with life. Well... exciting for us. We're going to see the Nightmare Before Christmas in 3D. Then we're going to paint coffee mugs at one of those firing pottery places. It'll be fun. I'm looking forward to it. Room is still dry, which is a good thing. It's not really that cold outside but it's freezing in here. And, of course, the heat won't work. Got my absentee ballot today. STRICKLAND FOR GOVENOR!!! I think I might affiliate myself with the democratic party and just get it over with. Let's be honest, it's not like I really vote anything else...

Well, now I have 10 minutes to relex before this exam...

Hot Hot Hot Sweat Sweet

~~~~ Sore

So not many people expect to come back to their dorm room after a weekend at home and find it SOAKING WET! ... yeah, I did. Apparently there was a leak in the roof above me and it leaked into my room. Imagine a waterbottle condesating after you take it out of the fridge... yeah, imagine that, but COVERING my room. It was maddness! I seriously thought a sprinkler had gone off or something. So I had to sleep in Stephanie's room last night because they took away my mattress and my floor was still wet. It was a very hard floor! So, I'm sore. But I have a mattress now, my room is officially dry, and I kinda want to just curl up in bed right now...

It turns out our Spamalot tickets aren't for this week... they're for next. Which is fine... I'm gonna have a crazy wonderful week next week. First Spamalot, then the Flogging Molly concert, then Mom's coming to and we're seeing the Steve Miller Band and shopping (and she's paying :) ). Score! So now tomorrow is relatively uneventful.. with the exception of Dancing With the Stars :) *tee-hee*
