I’m home today all by myself. Patrick has to work all weekend, and I hate that, because I never get anything done when I’m home by myself. I always end up just slumming around. But not today!!@ I will be productive.

Last night after work we went to the bank and went to best buy. I finally got Patrick his “birthday present.” hah. It’s only a month or so late. I think he’s okay with that, though, because it’s Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring. We watched it last night in bed on the computer because we didn’t want to sit in the living room to watch. I think we both fell asleep, though. Anyway, after best buy we went to buy my books. I had originally estimated around $400 for all three classes. BUT! I was plesantly surprised when I got two of the three used and my total was only $243. So now I can buy a new pair of shoes and maybe get my hair done. Heh. Then we got take out and came home to watch Big Brother 3. We rushed because we thought the special was going to be on at 8:00, but it ended up being on at 9:00. So yeah. I love big brother. Finally, Lisa has seen the light.

I was thinking today that I’d work on some sculpture. I’ve got a ton of really neat objects that I want to incorporate into a clay structure, and I’m pretty sure the design in my head will come out nicely, but I’m just too lazy to sit down and work on it. Maybe later I can look at some fabrics for the curtains I so dearly want to sew for the living room. bah! Trading spaces is on. I must go.

holy shit

here it goes

work work work.

FINALLY I’m starting to see some action around Gilbert Hall again. It’s about time. I’ve been playing way too many Java Games here at work and not actually working.

We went to Sylvania this weekend to visit with my grandma and grandpa and mom. John was there too, of course. It was, over all, a nice two days. Although I don’t particularly care for driving 3 hours two days in a row. Bleh. Baxter really enjoyed getting to run around in the back yard with Maggie and Robin. They were zooming. He really enjoyed humping Maggie, too, which wasn’t very nice of him. I can’t wait to have a back yard. . . and not live in an apartment. It just kind of sucks. But I can deal, because I’m tough, yo.

Kenyon is graduating tomorrow and now I won’t have anyone to visit me at work and call me fabulous. The horror ! But maybe this Christmas I will get to visit him. Since I’ll probably be in Milwaukee, and he’ll probably be in Ohio, we’ll meet in the middle and go to ikea in Chicago! hah How fun.

HOLY SHIT. the Low Down is on WUOG and that’s totally awesome because they’re friends of Patricks and really nice guys. and it’s “noise rock” that I can actually stand. Here are the pictures from their show last yere. (The Low Down)

First I have to say this. . .

Secondly, the Sonic Youth show. There are pictures. Patrick took most of them. I was too sick of the croud and just plain sick. I ended up not seeing 2/3 of the dumb show. But yeah, the only thing I have to say is that Thurston Moore is much bigger than I expected.

And here are the pictures.

does anyone know how to post a series of pictures on lj?

like. . . well, I can’t explain what I’m talking about, but I’m sure someone will know.

I’m starting to feel sick again. I can feel the muscles in my body beginning to tense and cramp and twitch. And what’s worse is, this is during summer and I’ve just been chilling out for a few months now. No reason to be tired or sick, but I can feel it. I haven’t been sick like this in at least a year and a half. Or maybe on the trip last January to Wisconsin. I was so tired then and I got sick. The only person who seems to understand how horrible it feels is my mom, and she’s too far away to help me much. Poor Patrick. He’s never been there and seen it. I’m scared that he doesn’t understand how I might end up vising the hospital for a week or so. I’m going to try not to let it get that far, though. I’ll try my damnedest.

I’m going to call in sick tomorrow. I was supposed to work all day because Lisa is going to Six Flags, but I know I couldn’t do that. I know right now. I’m just going to stay home and try to get doctors apointments that I’ve been putting off for a month.

Anyway, I’m reading the first book of the Scilence of the Lambs trilogy, called Red Dragon. It’s a little creepy so far, but today I read the funniest part. The killer was evesdropping on someones converstaion. No, not the killer, the reporter. He heard a guy ask a girl to go in the restroom and get him a tampon. . . He had to use them for his bleeding asshole. ahhahaha! How funny! bleeding assholes are just great.

I’m going to go bug Patrick to come to bed now. Because I’m a stinky annoying pest.
