i dont really use this.. sadness

i'm disliking the procrastination quality that i encompass. darnit.

not dead, just not around.

don't like being sick either. figures that it'd happen on break. guess that's better thought.. don't miss any school. haven't missed any work yet either. starting to feel a lil better, but i put myself on a concoction of meds. must be working!
gnite.

finally

living life. back in school, still working, still a mother, still a chick with attitude.. as if that'll ever end.

another day, another sad day.

*sigh*

another day, but this friday is a special friday. it is the friday of memorial day weekend, which is nice in itself but especially nice in that i have a three day weekend before the stress of changing job locations. :-)

and i have to study for a test and write a few one page papers and also start working on a larger paper.. hmm. well ok so i have a lot to do in terms of school so i shouldn't really be slacking off writing this! but it is a friday evening, therefore i don't think i'll be getting into homework anyway, but yeah.
later

started listening to this song and wasn't really into it, but the lyrics caught me and the song is fitting my mood at the moment.

i would.


i am a calm person. really for the most part i try and stay calm, i take things in stride and i deal with things as they come.

but...

sometimes i just can't find it in me to be nice.

i get so f'ing sick of drama. it's everywhere.. i know this. and it will be everywhere, always. can't we find a way to deal with things that isn't a dramatic protest of what we believe versus what everyone else believes? it's like a race to find out who's right, when really we are all right in our ways. we all have something that irks us, something that gets right under our skin. i have mine too. i wish that people could just deal with things as they come, and stay the F outta my way when i'm dealing with mine.

i don't even know what i'm rambling about, except that it's all in my head somewhere.

Southland Tales


watched this movie earlier. it was good. strange, but good. i'll have to watch it again to figure it all out though. i think i missed something or just didn't get it the first time around. worth watching :-)

damn this week was way too long. i swear. snow in april. after the warm days it's hard to believe that parts of the state have inches of snow. we had a few flurries, some light ice rain but nothing stuck because the ground, and the air for that matter, is really just too warm.
anywho. i get done being sick. jordan gets a cold. i have allergies. the weather changes back and forth and welcome to spring allergies and cold season. bah, i say. it really does kinda suck because i have this heavy feeling in my chest and a brand spankin' new cough that sounds like it's transforming into bronchitis. hence, the cough meds stored away in my cupboard that have found a new home on my bathroom counter. down a couple tablespoons of that every few hours and maybe i can stop it in it's tracks. it's worked before but i can only try and hope it works. i hate coughs. i'd rather be ... ok nevermind because you can still function with a cough. the fever that i feel like i'm about to get as well doesn't feel the greatest and i should really just be getting to bed.

it feels like a waste to go to bed at ten on a friday night. i mean, i deserve that extra sleep, i owe it to myself really, but i just can't find it in me to waste away a late night when i can sleep-in in the morning. i tuck myself in rather early every week night, so friday is a time to stay and play, eh? oh i'm nutty. rhyming and blabbing about myself through this whole thing.
but then again, it is my journal and i can write what i damn well please. i'd ask "how is everyone else," and start up a whole paragraph about that, but i know, (and anyone who actually does look at my journal knows as well), that there are just like two or three people who manage to read my entries and they probably haven't made it this far into this one. my entries are typically short as shit and so this probably seems like a novel to the few. i'd wager that one of them reads it all. and he'll comment too. always does. he's good like that.
chocolate animal devour the candy.

what?
nothing.

again.. always have long days on tuesday/thursday, but today seemed even longer because of the lack of sleep last night. jordan's got the cold i had week ago, and woke in a coughing fit. fun

article i have to read for my first paper in psych. it's like... soo long and I haven't started reading much of it but I have a feeling it will be rather annoying. and my printer is just about out of ink. great.
flippin' great. school can b such a drag sometimes. my keyboard keeps missing letters that I type mid-word. that's irritating. it might be low battery or maybe this keyboard's just shot. who knows. I'll try and work with it though. damn. psych will be interesting but hard. looking at the class schedule/syllabus - I'm getting so overwhelmed.

real nice.

kinda neat, eh?

every time that i actually do update my journal, i'm always saying something like "wow, it's been so long since i posted".. which is what i was about to write but then saw my last post and decided that i'd better add something more interesting. what that would be, i don't know. i'm not too interesting this morning. shit- it's afternoon. well whatever.
i really need to give an update one of these days because a lot has changed since i actually used lj. i've got a lot going on. work, school, life. it's hard to find time for life in the midst of everything else, but depending on how you look at it, i guess the everything else is life. sometimes it sucks, but for the most part it's okay.
anywho.. .i'll try and update before too long. i've got some homework to do today.. so i'm off to that. ojoy
