but i'll gladly go down in a flame, if the flame's what it takes to remember my name...
i just feel like i'm already gone. i'm not a part of these circles. i have a cluster of friends that changes each semester and this semester it is super small. i understand that friendship is supposed to be reciprocal, but who makes the first move? and the last? it really makes you wonder...

I may have to give up on woohu for good. not being able to access it from home is becoming too much.

i brought you all in, and now i'm dropping out....

RIP user #56.

I wonder how long it will take 'til we're alone...sittin on the front porch of that home...stomping our feet on the wooden boards, never gotta worry about lockin the door...
i'm sick....it sucks big time.

I missed class tonite, and by the looks of things, I'm not going to them tomorrow either.

I took a 5 hour nap from 3:30 to 8:30 so I doubt I will be able to get to sleep...maybe i'll get some homework done, but i've got "sickness apathy", where you just dont care about anything or even want to move because you're just...sick.

I cant wait until this semester is over....I want the summer!

Took me to the new church and baptized me with salt...I am a new man...
its been an f-in crazy weekend...
took most of it off of work, dyed my hair red again (it rocks), went to a party and schmoozed with girls I didnt really know (guys too, but schmoozing with girls is a shocking thing for me), drank too much liquor, woke up with three men and a hangover (not as bad as it sounds, I promise), worked the WIDR garage sale (with said hangover), rocked out the homework scene (still hungover), watched American Wedding, slept, woke up today with a headache AGAIN (a 48-hour hangover?), went to work for 7 hours, ran home quick and went to DJ and collect pledges for WIDR week (I made $115 during my show), came home, threw some laundry in the washer, and then I am here. Still with a serious headache (or a two-day hangover?) and beat to a pulp.

Go ahead, you can laugh all you want.


:: 2004 5 February :: 9.55 pm

ahh! i cut all of my hair off!


I decided...since i dont have anything/one keeping me from it, that i would. and i did.

i like it. not the cut, particularly, but the assertation of my independence.

:: Music: the sound of trains outside and my prof rambling on about having babies...

woohu DOES NOT WORK at my house, at all. I am very upset by this.

i was noticing today that a lot of my neighbors and people who ride my bus are particularly unattractive. I wonder if it's the area, or if i can just blame it on the weather.

I have 18 more days of this class. a very exciting thought. and two weeks until spring break (leaving on friday 27!). Three more semesters before I graduate. A week and one day until my study abroad deadline.

I am still debating about going, I have to finish up my application ASAP. I should just do it and not think. It ought to be worth it in the long run. but if i hold off for a semester, i dont really have a place to live for the first semester. but its only 4 months, i can handle it.

on an unrelated note, i got flowers yesterday :) i haven't gotten flowers in a long time, it was very nice and thoughtful...and unexpected.

:: 2004 4 February :: 7.43 pm

wow.

for some reason, woohu wont work when I am at home, so i am in class right now... its really been driving me nuts because I feel so out of touch with everyone and everything thats been going on.

I've been doing a lot of that "reminiscing" shit and its really been blowing my mind. so much has happened to me already this year, my life and my plans have changed so much in just a month.

school's been a bitch, and work too...I'll be pushing 40 hours again this week, especially if I stick around on saturday.... however, I'll probably stay around 35 because I'll need time to get ready for the party that I'm going to that evening...with people that I had never even met two months ago...

I really feel like i'm happy, successful, appreciated, and loved.

This...I admit...taste so good…hard to believe an end to it. Smell, touch, feel...how could this rhythm ever quit? Bags packed on a plane, hopefully to heaven....
Planning the coolest fricken spring break trip ever.

I cant wait!

On a less positive note, I have toxic black mold growing in my apartment. I may deem it constructive eviction and get the hell out of here.

One more sun comes sliding down the sky....one more shadow leans against the wall...
mmmm........
i am so disconnected from everything that is going on in this world..

but the funny thing is that I dont think that I mind...
i never thought that i'd say this but i think i may be at a point in my life where i prefer being by myself or with only a few select people rather than a group.

starting to really like the life i'm living....hope tonite doesnt bring that down.

also have reverted back to the "real" pen and paper-type diary for the "real" thoughts about my life right now. because i realize that there are a lot of you who dont want to hear it.

I hate it when you get put into a situation where you know you SHOULD tell someone about something but you know you can easily get away with NOT telling them and it will be a lot easier and a lot less stressful... just not the right thing to do.

:: Music: Ben Kweller- Wicked Little Town

So when you've got no other choice, you know you can follow my voice through the dark turns and noise of this wicked little town...
SO a couple people have heard about my night on Saturday so I think I'll post a short rundown.
I get back from lunch at work, and my back really hurts and I have really bad cramps. So I realize that I left my purse in my car, and I don't have my good drugs (Aleve, its what I always take for just about everything). I ask Kristen if we have any Tylenol or anything at the desk....she says we have aspirin in the drawer. Aspirin, right? Everybody takes aspirin. Well, apparently, not me, or at least, not anymore.
I took two and we were so busy, I was just trying to ignore the fact that I felt kinda weird, just figured I was stressed out and running all over the place....I finally take a break at the desk and I realize that my throat is REALLY tight. Like, I can hardly breath and definitely can't swallow. So Dan (my manager) comes up and starts talking to me, he realizes that I am not listening and asks me whats going on....I'm like...I can't.....breath...
He has Kristen walk me to the break room and I'm just chillin out back there trying to catch my breath, kinda trying to talk to Matt and then I'm like hyperventilating and I start to black out and I fall off the stool and I'm sitting on the ground. Ross walks up and he's all concerned and I still cant breath and I'm not really there at all and I kept feeling like I was blacking out.
Ross calls the store manager over and he's like, should we call an ambulance? I'm like, no, dammit, I'm fine and stubborn...but I still cant breath and he's like, I'm gonna get someone to take you to the ER...
This guy Scott drove me there, he totally drove like a madman, and they admitted me right away and had to give me a big shot of Benadryl to bring down the swelling in my throat so I could breath again, plus a handful of Prednisone to get it out of my system, I guess.
So I was really messed up from all the drugs but I could breath again, so I was a happy girl. And I went home and stopped back at work first to tell everyone that I was alive (kindof, Benadryl in large doses kinda fucks you up) and I took my car back home (probably a bad idea but whats done is done).
I've had to stay on the Prednisone for a couple days to make sure I dont react again, and the stuff is really gross, it makes me so thirsty, my tummy hurts from it, and my mouth always tastes bad but I suppose it is better than no oxygen. So that is the story about Stefanie being allergic to ASPIRIN. Of all the stupid things.

I just came up with the mother of all new year's resolutions.

I normally don't make them, or if I do, it's as a joke (ex. kiss as many guys as possible...) but this is seriously something that will rock out.

Unfortunatly, part of the catch is that I can't tell anyone what it is that I'm doing.
