   well, i know it’s been a long time coming, and i’m sorry. yes, i have returned. no, i was not dead. searching the lower worlds, perhaps, as usual, but far from dead. this week has been a veritable rollercoaster for sure. when was it i wrote last? last wed? christ… ok, let’s explain thursday through friday night. i know you guys probably think it’s all long winded and shit, but oh well, here goes.
    thursday, 10 february: took my latin midterm. was terrified about my greek midterm that was to be taken on friday. studied my ass off for it, somewhat, and then went to sleep, resigning myself to my fate.
    friday, 11 february: took my greek midterm. tired. what did i do friday night? i cant remember. oh yeah… i fucking worked. i had wRk from 15.45 to 22.15. fucking shite. that blew, and all of our registers went down too for a bit, which sucked balls. it was a turbulent day. after i got done with work i went and saw jenn, then went home. stayed up real real late, then crashed.
    saturday, 12 february: this was an interesting day, for sure. woke up around 2pm (?). was supposed to be studying for midterms, but didn’t get around to it. as far as i know, i hung out with jenn for awhile, and i bought her a diamond necklace (not mad expensive, but reasonable, like $50). took her home since she had work in the morning, and i went to claude’s around 10pm.
    we just chilled an shite for awhile, and then i get a call out the blue from my friend allison! yay! well, i had forgotten that she was going to be down from portland that day, and so she asked me if i wanted to hang out. i was like fuck yes, you should come over to claude’s, you gotta!! so she comes over… lol… she couldnt find the place at first, it was funny. claude’s house is a pretty obscure place to get to though, so i don’t blame her. she got there, and we were just chillin, talking and all… claude kept making 5000 calls in the meantime, and we were all laughing our asses off. i tried to invite nikki over, but she didn’t want to come; she was kinda down, which sucked. in any case, this is where things got interesting.
    – i’ve told friends this a bunch already i think, well, some at least, and so if you have heard it already, you may skip this part -
    claude goes “let’s watch my tape of this week’s OC” and im like fine, sounds good, cos i hadnt seen it yet. allison doesnt watch the OC, so she didnt know what it was about really, but shes like sure, why not. all of a sudden, she puts her legs across mine (i was sitting next to her on the couch), and she goes “is it ok if i use you as a footrest?” im like ‘hell yes!!!’ without a second thought. so we’re sittin there watching the OC, and i find that my hand is resting comfortably on her knee. god, i was happy. then she puts her hand on top of mine, and im goin WHOA. we basically kinda intertwined fingers and all, not really holding hands but holding hands (i know, it’s weird, i’d have to show you probably), and i was so fucking happy. it was indescribable, a ridiculously wonderful feeling. i havent held hands with another girl for 2+ years, and it was insanely intoxicating. a bit later on she kinda moved her hand around and we were sorta holdin hands, and i was wanting to straight up hold her hand, for sure…. but i didn’t, cos i thought claude would trip. im sittin there and i almost felt like me and her were a couple… it was really insane. i almost felt like it was embarrassing claude, and it was kinda strange how that worked out.
    anyways, i was all smiles. the magic disappeared, however, and allison had to go home at like 3am. i walked her to her car, and hugged her TIGHT…. and then something really unexpected happened. we held each others hands, both of them, for maybe 10 seconds…. and i drew her to me again and hugged her tight, and then she left. wow. i had no idea what happened really, and i talked to her a bunch about it that night actually when i got home. it was crazy and beautiful. i went home, walking on air, and i think i stopped by 7-11 at like 4am before i crashed at home. what to do…. i’ve been pondering that for awhile now i guess. things will work themselves out, i’m sure.
    sunday, 13 february: woke up at like 2pm again. was supposed to get to my studying for art history. fucked around for hours, skipped mass, did no studying until almost midnight. stayed up real late, till like 02.30 or so studying. midterm at 9am the next day. slept. hoped to god i wouldnt fail.
    monday, 14 february (valentine’s): took my art history midterm bright and early at 9am. tried to study a bit beforehand, but it didn’t work too well. didn’t get any greek read for class. luckily, the outcome was favourable (i’ll fill you all in later). was supposed to be studying for my gender&sexuality midterm the next day, and went over to jenn’s to do so. ended up trying to read 4 or 5 books in one night. christine and me and jenn kept talking, and i was distracted. went home and studied, read plato until i couldnt keep my eyes open anymore. read none of the assigned latin for class the next day.
    tuesday, 15 february: took my gender midterm. i woke up around 10.15, and tried to read up on some plato at the last minute. didn’t help much. i think i aced the midterm anyways, because i’d read most of the oresteia and all of aristophanes and euripides. nothing to show for vergil, but i sightread around 10 lines. went home and crashed, tired, just relaxed. i think i picked up jenn from school at like 22.30 but i can’t remember.
    wednesday, 16 february: was all psyched to hang out with blythe today, but she ended up being swamped with homework and couldn’t. i understand completely…. we rescheduled for next wednesday, which is perfectly fine with me! i cant wait to see her ;) accidentally slept through art history :( luckily, our midterms weren’t passed back until today (friday). went to mass, it was cool, and jenn met me afterwards. took her home. didn’t get any homework done, sadly.
    thursday, 17 february: me and jenn’s “anniversary” (monthly… still :-P ). i actually dont think i saw her yesterday, but i can’t remember exactly. sightread some more for latin, felt like an idiot, and gender class i just took notes. we got our tests back in latin, and i got 94/100!! oh, and i prolly forgot… 86/100 in greek :-D . went home, didnt study really, just was tired.
    friday, 18 february (~today): last day of the week. got my art history midterm back, and i got 90% on it!!! i was so surprised…. thank god! in greek today i was saved; i didnt read, but i didnt have to read today, thank god.

    ok, we’re up to the present. so today, after school, i went home and relaxed for a bit. i watched point pleasant for the first time last night, which is a fucking awesome show, and the OC last night was ill (i know i know, i’m selling out, but cmon, these shows are ill). i downloaded the first 5 episodes of point pleasant, cos i wanted to see the other ones. i watched one today, the pilot, and it was awesome! went to jenn’s around 5pm, and we got ready and went out to dinner. i took her to don juan’s, this mexican restaurant here, and then we went to go see CONSTANTINE!!! that movie was SO fucking awesome!! i wanna see it again already LOL…. anyways. i’m home now, and just relaxing. i wish i had some deeper thoughts at the moment, but i’m too burnt out. i was up till like 4am this morning talkin to a cool new friend of mine, this girl Brittany I met on myspace! shes incredible ;) anyways, i’m around. much love…. i’ll be sleeping early tonight tho, prolly midnight. have yourselves a wonderful night, and please think of me while i’m suffering at work tomorrow. peace.

Rainy as can be. Walked from ~17th to 12th to get here…. so yeah, around five blocks. It’s a grey day outside, veritably wet and cold. I got here around 8.05 or so, and I was surprised I got a parking spot. Usually they’re full by 8am sharp. Got lucky today I guess. Class in around 20min, then Anthro for 2 (count ‘em) hours…. then studying from 12.00 until 14.00 when I have my Latin class. Done at 16.00 and then I’m just gonna fucking relax. I wish I had more to say, but I’m just bloody out of it. I need inspiration….

    I promise I’ll write some more soon. It’s been a busy week so far, and next week will be equally busy. Perhaps things will be a bit calmer once the weekend hits. Much love.

    ok, yes, I jacked rough’s format. but it is a fun exercise, for sure. hello everyone. well, i worked 08-14.00 today, then came home. changed, studied for a bit, and then around 16.30 i left, taking my 50pk of DVD+Rs with me I bought at Staples yesterday. apparently at wRk (shopko) they are offering 25pks of Verbatim 16X DVD+Rs for $10.99!! yay! i paid $19.96 for my 50pk of Memorex 8X DVD+Rs at Staples. So I put two packs of the Verbatims on hold during work, and I came back and got these around 16.30 or so. 2 @ $10.99, minus my 10% discount == $19.78. Am I mistaken, or did I save 18¢ AND get 2x faster-rated DVD+Rs? Yeah, I thought so. I rool.
    I’m probably getting overly excited about all this, but it’s awesome…. I’m glad I got my 16x burner :) I said I got it, right? Yeah. otherwise, i’m out of it…. i am shielding myself in bliss and ethereal calm before the apocalypse that shall overshadow this week. i’m going to be mad tired. but hey, i’m gonna chill with Blythe tomorrow as far as I know…. so I’m happy! tomorrow i’m gonna study my ass off right after school so I can have my shit somewhat done by 19.00, cos she said she’d be free by then. otherwise, i have virtually nothing planned this week, because i’m gonna be mad busy with homework. same with this weekend. and bleh, i have to work on friday night…. but at least i don’t have to work this weekend. i requested both days off and only got sun off, argh…. so i switched with a friend at work who didn’t want to work friday night. i am not gonna get shit done friday night anyways, so i don’t care.
    anyways, i just wanted to write somethin short and sweet. much love to you all… and ill catch you all later? feel free to drop comments, msgs, or even call, if you are privileged enough to have my number ;) peace.

    well, I started writing this on thursday but haven’t gotten to it until now. so i’ll attempt to recap things. had a wonderful start to the weekend, but it’s gone somewhat downhill from there.
    thursday: well, it is thursday night. tomorrow’s the big play, yay, i got tickets :) anyways… as i said yesterday, or early this morning, rather…. i was working on reformatting and typesetting my earlier entries, because one day i’m hoping to put these in a book. you all know that right? it’s one of my crazy ideas. one of these days. :) it’s been a long week…. i’m verily tired. next week is going to be even longer — Latin midterm on Thu, then Greek on Fri. After that, I think I have my Art History midterm on Valentine’s Day (bleh!!!) and then my Gender and Sexuality in Antiquity midterm. It’s a fucking quadruple header these next couple of weeks.
    friday: wondrous! did my greek, went to art history and greek, got done. got home from school, and vegetated for a bit. it’s all sort of a jumble right now. if i remember correctly, i got home around 2, chilled, then went over to jenns. it’s kind of muddled from here, which is oddly uncharacteristic of me, but i’m sorry. in any case, i went over there, then jenn wanted to go to shopko, so first we went and got some gas (i was running on empty) and then went to shopko. i had to go there anyways to pick up my check, which happened to be ~$140 or so!! i bought 2 shirts, which jenn pulled off the rack and recommended… they were cool (polo shirts). bought those, then deposited my check at the bank. we went to taco bell to get some food, because i knew we were going to this japanese place that night for anna’s (my sis) birthday, and so i anticipated that most of it would be inedible. so then we went back home to my house for a bit…
    after a bit we were off to the restaurant for anna’s “party.” we went to this place called shoji’s here in town, and they make the shit right in front of you. it’s like those things you always see in movies or something, but this is the real deal, it’s ill. so the guy made food right in front of us (shit, it’s cold, makes me type funny), and i tried to eat as much as i could. they put mad sesame seeds and green onions in the rice, though, which was wack, and i was kinda pissed about that. oh well. we had to go at 19.30, because the play was at 20.00. so we bailed as fast as we could, and got to the theatre at 19.45 or so.
    we got into the theatre and i had no idea what to expect, it was a relatively small, cosy theatre, and so we went in and sat down. me, jenn, and anna sat there and waited for it all to start. soon the lights went down and it all started. by the way, the play was called Dr. Faustus Lights the Lights by Gertrude Stein. it was a mixed up, jumbled sort of play, and i loved it, absolutely loved it! my friend blythe was a fuckin trip in it too, she played the “country woman,” who looked more like Death (with a sickle and death makeup) hehe… anyways…. it was fucking amazing, and i think im gonna buy a copy of the play for sure and read through it, it blew me the fuck away…. i cant say much more about it, cos for one i’m tired, and i’ve already said a lot about it to most people. it was an insane experience :) a lot of fun for sure. i wanted to see blythe after the play, but i didn’t know when she’d be out, and jenn had to get home, so we bailed, and i felt kinda bad about it, but it’s okay. i talked to her later, and she wants to chill on monday night, which will be ill :-D monday night at fluid! ;) so yeah, we left, and then went to DQ on the way to jenn’s, cos i had to take her home, and we all got blizzards and stuff.
    said goodnight to jenn, went home. anna wanted to watch some salute your shorts, but i didn’t want to yet…. blythe got online a lil later and i was like yeah, we should chill tonight maybe, and she asked me, “oh, you wanna go to shari’s or somethin? i havent eaten all day….” and im like hell yeah, if you’re down, i’m down. it was like 00.30 or 01.00 or somethin by this time, and i was psyched. shes like “well, im pretty tired, ima make something here…. but let’s chill monday” (like i said before). so that was cool, i was happy. after that, i think me and anna watched some salute, then she went to bed, and i played devil may cry 2 until around 5.30, then fell into soporific sleep.
    today: today has been another blur. my dad fuckin jacked me out of bed around 11.30… i was irritable as hell. had to copy some shit from his moribund laptop to his new laptop, and so that took awhile, and i said ‘fuck it, i’m not getting any more sleep i guess.’ chilled for a bit, should have done homework, and then took anna out to jamie’s for some lunch. after we had lunch, we went to staples and i got a 50pk of DVD+Rs… memorex’s…. for like $20! got some dual dvd cases too, you know the ones sans a place for a booklet? yeah. good shit. i loaded my salute your shorts, hey dude, and chappelles show dvdrs into that shit. my wonder years dvdrs came today, by the way. theyre gonna be ill! im worried about disc #7 though, it might be scratched — got scratched in transit perhaps :( i hope it’s alright.
    i was going to go to casino night at church tonight, but i’m feeling under the weather. i’m gloomy and brooding tonight. jenn wanted me to come over and do homework, and i didn’t… i can’t usually do homework with her, but since i did my latin with her once i guess i’m always able to, right? :-P *shrugs*. i have work tomorrow… i fucking hate work. maybe i’m whining, because i only work one or two days a week, but jesus christ, it’s midterms this week. tomorrow’s the motherfucking super bowl too. argh. the stars are against me, im telling you, everything has just coalesced and fired straight at me…. lol… i’m probably whining, yes, but still…. it’s been a bad day. yesterday was glorious… today is the afterglow. more later, much love… i think i might go to bed now, but not sure. peace.

        These days my entries have been more fractured and less focused. Such is life. I do what I can to give a glimpse into my life, a snapshot if possible. I hope you enjoy it nonetheless.

        talk to me if you'd like to know something about me, or keep reading. I'm still a poor grad student and working on my PhD. I don't really know whether this will become a book anymore, but it's not wholly improbable.
