Working Some Magic
January 28, 2009
Below is the entry I wrote, ohhhhh, I don’t know, less than seven hours ago, and I was going to publish except that I was so distracted and aggravated that I couldn’t think how to spell “tyrannosaurus” and I wanted to call it “Tyrannosaurus Tuesday” because that was the first alliteration I could think of that went with Tuesday. Right. Anyway, because I double-checked the spelling of the old title (I had the double n as a double r) and my mood was vastly improved after going to work (unnatural, highly), I thought, “Eh, why the hell not?” and went on ahead with the publishing. This is, to warn you, fairly stream of conscious, frustrated, angry, irritated, upset me, not bothering to censor myself or make anything funny or well-articulated. And because I’m also kind of sleep-deprived, I will tell you that it took me a minute to decide if I needed “accept” or “except” up there. All the English majors say heyyyyyyyy!
Today has just been full of frustration, and it’s the kind of frustration that makes me feel lame for even complaining about, because it’s silly stuff that normally wouldn’t get in my way, but I’m getting hung up on it, for some reason, today. I’ve had this feeling before, like my insides are unsettled and are shifting against each other, grating and trying to right themselves, and while they do that in there, out here I’m a raving bitch. I am usually slow to anger and slow, even, to annoyance, but today everything is setting me off on rampages. It starts with being awake too early, which guarantees grumpiness, then with not eating regularly, another way to make sure I’m irritated, which then leads to feeling sorry for myself because I always have a weird eating schedule, I never get to eat with my friends because of schedule differences, and nothing is ever going to get better EVER. Adding to the two surefires are minor roommate issues, a bitchface TA, and the fact that I can’t even really finish this entry properly because I have to go to damn work and be pretend-happy, and the thought of forcing myself to act cheerful and fake is making me nauseous. What I know would make me feel better is going to bed. Unfortunately, after work there’s German sentence revisions and a reading quiz for Biology yet, plus a shower and possibly Stats homework. Yikes. This day has been fucking bleak. I desperately need to have a sense of humor about all this, but that which is usually quick to come to me seems out of reach too. I don’t got jokes. Not today, at least.
Sharing Each Other’s Bad Sides
September 10, 2008
Here is the kind of day I am having: experienced a time warp early this morning, kicked ass in Chem Lab, made fun of some dudes in skinny jeans so tight they were almost, well, tights, bonded with former bitches, ate alot of popcorn, and just now got in an argument with my best friend about ougi boards and the Catholic church’s stance on drinking. I don’t know what to make of this other than it’s bedtime.
