So I got my paper back. Stupid. I just hope I don't have to take the class over again. If I do then I'll prolly use the same paper, at least most of it. And just, you know, fix what needs to be fixed. Actually, I hope I don't have to take any of my courses over again. Well, TLE isn't bad. And I've chosen to contiue that for credit. Blah.
Anyway, I'm heading home in about 10 hours, I think. Which means I should pack. Also means I should go to sleep, something that I will be doing shortly.
I have decided that I need to find a place to live that will allow me to have pets. I need something snuggly and soft to bury my face into when I'm sad. Like my cat. Except he's not all that snuggly. Likes to bite. Seriously, though, I do want a cat. Dogs are all fine and dandy, but you have to let them out all too often and I wouldn't want to make the poor thing go OUT THERE where it's cold. I'm not that cruel. Cats are generally more tidy, anyway. And I'm all for tidy.
Basically, though, I just need to find a new place to live. I don't like it here. It isn't even so much the people I live with. I can deal with it. Maybe not very well, but I still deal. In any case, though, I just don't like it here. I love my bishopric and I love Alice and being around some of the other people in my ward here, but I don't like it HERE. There's just... something missing. I'm not sure what it is, though. Maybe it is that I really don't see people much. Or at all. It just doesn't happen. Nicole, whether she believes it or not, has a much larger social life than I do and knows about twice as many people in our ward as I do. Sure, I know names of people and can occasionally connect them with faces, but I don't actually know the people.
There is something in my keyboard. It's making clickety noises every once in a while. I wonder what is down there? Prolly crumbs. I eat at my desk far too often than is healthy for my laptop. Hahaha. Not lately, obviously. Though I did eat dinner tonight. Just not a lot of it. There will be plenty of chicken for me to eat when I get back in two weeks. Just chucked it all in the freezer, you know.
I am in pain. And it is a weird sort of pain, one that I don't experience often. I expect it is due to lack of food, standing for hours on end the past three days, and... stress. Stress is a continual event in my life, though, so I'm not real sure I can blame my pain on that. Oof. That's all the more I have to say about that.
I do ramble on a bit, don't I? But I don't apoligize for it, because I figure if you get bored with me than you can leave and I won't even know! That's the beauty of online blogging. You can say everthing and anything on your mind and people can just not pay attention to it if they don't want to. I wish I could do that in real life. Oh, wait. I do. But I know it bugs the crud out of people when I just stop listening. Like my sister. Or Nicole when she's telling me about the weird dream that she had last night and I'm just thinking to myself, "That's nice, now get on with it. What's the point of this story? Or isn't there one? Oh, look! A speck of dust!" and by the time she gets two or three sentences into the dream I've got a glazed look on my face and she ends the story pretty quick, but ends up being annoyed for the next half hour. But, hey, I can't help it if people don't ask me if I care to know something before they tell it to me!
So, there you go. A bit of advice. If you want to make sure I'm going to be listening the whole time you talk to me, ask me if I care first. Chances are if you ask me and I say yes that I will listen. At least for a while. You just have GOT to get straight to the point and not dilly-dally around with unnecessary details because that will totally turn the old ears OFF. And there is not an on switch.
Ahhhhhh............. I can feel my brain going fuzzy and I can tell that my head is trying to nod so I guess I had better go to bed. I'll pack first, though.
See you when I get back in 2006!
(Woah. I'm like... almost 20!)
