I got out of work early (3 instead of 5) and that makes me happy.
Sadly, since it's bad out, I'm not allowed to go anywhere. Stupid snow. Maybe I'll go cash my paycheck.
We all should hang out this weekend.
I'm gonna go write my paper that's due at 5. Yay!
I love you all.

And thus have I returned home for the holiday ^_^. Definitely feels good to be back home, though oddly enough my room here is actually considerably colder. If anyone wants to do anything though, just call me up. Hopefully you know the numbers.
Last night I kind of wound up staying up rather late tearing my mind to shreds on a program that just wouldn't work. So, at the moment I'm kind of in the mood to just fall on my mammoth fleece covered bed and sleep.

Since I don't have much to do, and don't want to start studying for all my classes or anything, I decided to start registering for classes!!!! Right now I'm up to 14 credit hours and am looking for one more class, maybe an art class for fun.
I'm feeling better today, and the lubberly side-effects of the vicodin (sleeping and dizziness) haven't hit me yet. Le w00t le w00t. Walking is also easier, so maybe Kyle won't hafta carry me down to not-Ric's-anymore when we go!!! *dances*
In other news: I need more black yarn!!!

So I've got the itch.....
I think I figured out my problem. I've got the itch. I haven't been on the road in a very long time. So I'm thinking of going on a roadtrip over winter break. Anyone interested? I'm not sure if I can convince my parents but if I tell them it's a preventative measure to keep me from dropping out and taking up hitchhiking or trainhopping they might let me. However if I find it to be an agreeable way of life, moreso than college, it might become permanent.
You can go ahead and call me crazy now. I'm sure I sound insane.....

I know I've probably never told anyone this (my mom just heard about it today and laughed) but here's how dorky my siblings and I are:
Hannah, Nathaniel and I were playing some kind of shopkeeping game loosely based around Chrono Cross. I was the shopkeeper, Buddy was some pet and Hannah was the customer(s).
Once, Hannah came in as a "customer," snuck in the back of my shop and I was audited by an IRS agent (played by Hannah).
And apparently, NORMAL children don't do these things.

Yay for naps!
According to the medicine bottle, Vicodin may cause drowsiness and dizziness. So ha to dad! He thinks that I'm on my deathbed, while in reality I'm just feeling the side effects of a drug. Wooo.
Andy's going insane, it's kinda funny. He and I acted out part of Julius Caesar in the kitchen. He was Cassius and I was Brutus. We're such dorks ;p

Vicodin; friend or foe
I decided, after much thinking (okay, really it was just sleeping) that I would stay at home this week instead of return to school for just two days. Hell, it'd probably take me half an hour just to walk from the bus stop to Rood! (normally a ten minute walk at the most)
But anyways, I've claimed the couch as mine, the end table is laden with cough drops, water, gobstoppers, my cell phone, and the regular phone. I hafta walk to the kitchen table for my drugs ;p
I attempted to take a shower today, so my hair isn't nasty greasy anymore. That was quite a walk, though, so I'm just gonna hang at the couch for the next few hours.
Oh, apparently dad has started up God Squad again. I don't know who all that goes, but I know that Justin Erickson and his sister go (yay for Erickson!). Isn't it sad that right after we graditate, God Squad starts up again? I DEMAND A REFUND!!! <--that might be the drugs talking
Whee, dizzy!
Edit 1:42
I just threw up. It might've been the jello's fault. I wish that someone was home right now ;_;

This is me, coming clean with myself... I'm lonely. Not a desperate type of loneliness, but instead a sort of inert and serene loneliness. I feel like a sponge that's temporarily dried out, sitting in the bottom of the sink, patiently waiting to be used again. It's strange how this loneliness affects my reactions to situations that are most definitely not lonely. Visits and days out feel strangely comforting and yet ultimately fleeting, not compeletely hollow yet somehow not all-encompassing. Sometimes it feels like I haven't been living my life, as if I've found myself in someone else's shoes. But then again, the differences between here and there are night and day.
When I break the monotony of my rountine, each day here seems like such an adventurous undertaking. There's so much to explore and discover, and it engages me so completely that it almost acts like a drug, whether the high is good or bad.
I discovered a new movie theater fairly close to my campus that has absolutely unbeatable prices for this city. $5.75 for a matinee and $9 for an evening. On the bus ride there, I found the first Kohl's and Arby's I've seen since I've been down there. I took the time to indulge both and it was all a sublime diversion of a day, satisfying a taste of back home until I make it back there next month.
It was a beautiful day out today.

I'm ready to pick up and leave. I like college and everything, but I don't know if it's what I should be doing. What I really want to do is just live in the woods, or on a commune, or travel around, or something equally outlandish. Because it seems like college is simply preparing me for a future I don't want. A future I never wanted and have been trying to avoid and put off. I guess what it comes down to is I'm sick and tired of being part of the mainstream. Because I certainly don't belong here. I mean, I knew eventually I'd get sick of it and drop out, but I thougt I had a few more years. I thought I'd get thru college at least. But here it is, almost 5 am, and I can't get to sleep cause I'm fuckin wired and wishing I was outside. It's what? like 30 degrees out? And I have the window open because I can't stand breathing stale air. You know what? I was never happier than I was last summer at camp. For all the bullshit I put up with, and the long days, I felt like the luckiest girl in the world. Because how many people get to be around horses all day and live in the woods? Even when I had to wake up at 5:30 in the morning I didn't mind all that much. I saw some amazing sunrises. God, I'm practically counting the days till I go back. But I just don't know how much more I can deal with. I'm sick of TV, the radio, cars, etc, etc.... I really just want to live on my own terms, is that so much to ask? I don't see how college is conduicive to that. There is a problem though. If perchance I drop out and go persue this grand scheme, and it doesn't work out, and I want to go back to school I am fucked. Because I'd have to pay for it myself. Which is probably why I'll stick it out. However I will be pissed if I spend all this time and money on getting a degree and then I never use it. Which I probably won't because to use most degrees you have to get a *shudder* real job. So...if you haven't noticed I really don't know where I'm going with this.
It's quite possible this will all be irrelevant by tomorrow.
Good night, or good morning if you prefer.

Steve. kills. me.
There were times today, hanging out with Steve, that I actually had to stop dead in my tracks and kneel down to compose myself and stop my head from going splat. Some quotes from the day:
(after a random commercial for JCPenny or something) Steve: "I don’t want to be racist, but why are black people building a snowman in front of a white girl’s house?"
(sad and dejected while playing Tecmo Super Bowl. Best. game. ever.) Me: "Sometimes I wish I had more than 4 plays to choose from..."
(completely out of the blue on the way to the subway, in regards to The Godfather) Steve: "You know Sonny wouldn't have died if he had had EZPass."
(considering our options after arriving late to a sold-out Walk The Line) Steve: "Let's score some weed."
Finally, let's play Name That Quote. Five, count 'em five, arbitrary points to who tells me who said this first: "We can’t bust heads like we used to, but we have our ways. One of them is to tell ‘em stories that don’t go anywhere. Like the time I caught the ferry to Shelbyville? I needed a new heel for m’shoe. So I decided to go to Morganville, which is what we called Shelbyville at the time. Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel. And in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on them. ‘Gimee five bees for a quarter,’ you’d say. Now where were we? Oh yeah. The important thing is that I had an onion tied to my belt—which was the style at the time. They didn’t have white onions because of the war. All you could get was those big yellow ones…”

Okay, so it ends up that my appendix was fine. But my left ovary was bleeding severely. I'll probably be here at Bronson all day and let out tomorrow...tonight if I'm extremely well.

Just as Rachel stated, yes...I am going to be a part of the appendix-less cult in a matter of a few hours. Third one of the family this year. Next will be mom.
Tara and I bonded over stolen latex gloves in a room at Sindacuse Health Center. She is seriously the best roommate in the world. I feel bad about all that I've made her go through today ^^" Tara, you're the best!

So Katie is having her appendix removed.
Tonight.
Please pray for her.
She's still down in Kalamazoo at Bronson Hospital. I will probably go down there tomorrow, depending on how she's doing, if she's there and how the weather is faring. So if anyone wants to come along, I'll drive.
Oh, I forgot you're all not around here. Well if you want to come, find your way over here or be ready to pay me gas money to come get you.
I love you all.

Hmm, so suddenly, I feel very lonely. I'm not sure where that came from, but I am. I've made a decent number of friends in the dorm. They're all nice, a little bit crazy, but still pretty clean (kind of like the old group back home, but two years older). I'm still friends with Rachael, who has been the savior of my weekends (if not for her, I'd have moped my way through every single weekend here not doing anything with anyone). Still though, I feel like I should be somewhere doing something with someone right now, but there's no one.
I have some work to do, an essay and a programming project. I can BS my way through the essay, and the program should be pretty easy once I get started. Still, I just really don't want to work right now. I don't want to sit on my ass either, but unfortunately the prospect of breaking in my chair is a somewhat more desireable prospect than researching some racial scientists of the late 19th century (by the way, the topic of race... ....I'm sick of it, no matter what anyone says, it's total bullshit. The difference is in culture, we are not all the same, because we have different cultures, but we are not all different in that our bodies are ultimately of the same basic design. That's all there is to it.).
I've been trying to write again lately. I can't say I've written much, but with any luck, I'll manage to get some work done in that area. Why am I not writing now since I have nothing better to do? Well because I'm not really in the proper mood, and I don't want to force it.
So yeah, to sum things up, I'm bored and lonely. Pardon this sad little entry in my journal. 'Tis not even dramatic and depressing, or happy, fun and sickeningly cute, just kind of blah, and such a step down after my massive (and apparently generally well received) rant on xanga.
Oh, on a more useful and informative note, I'm coming home this coming wednesday, possibly even this coming tuesday ^_^ (provided my bloody writing prof. cancels class like she should *shakes fist menacingly in general direction of Dr. Fernandez*). So let me know if you want to hang out sometime once I have returned ^_^.
Oh, and a bit of a heads-up. I'm quite seriously considering having a bit of a party on my birthday (the 19th of december in case you forgot). I figure it might be a good opportunity for us all to hang out in a big group like we used to before this dreaded thing called college snatched us all away, erm, and before we all kind of became boring and antisocial over the summer (no offense to anyone, I did it too). Oh yeah, and if I do wind up having a party and any bad blood is stirred up, I will insert a sobe bottle in your rectum, broken or whole (I have about 12 of those on my desk right now, and I figure I could put them to good use). So yeah, everyone here, let me know what you all think about the idea.
Hopefully you are all having an awesome start to your weekend.
Va con Dios mis amigos.
