Well, I’m coming down with something, have way too much to do, and found out today that my roommate who owns the apartment intends to evict our other other roommate(we’ll call her #3). Whose grandparents and mother are visiting this weekend. I have no idea when she intends to drop the bomb on #3 but she wants me to place all the blame on her if #3 tries to get angry at me. Considering the decision was made completely without me it is only fair. Life could get interesting for awhile.
I have a feeling I’ll be living elsewhere for a few days while it happens.
There have definitely been issues but I thought they were improving. Possibly because I have been staying at home as little as possible. It seems a little early to condemn the poor girl but I get where she’s coming from.
I think I need more tea now.

I’ve been watching them, I’ve yelled at the tv a few times. Mostly at McCain. ’Oh no you didn’t!’ has been yelled twice. There’s alot of tension between them. I feel like if they were let go they’d get vicious and yell and taunt and laugh at each other. I think McCain has the potential to get Obama to yell. Which would be epic.
Obama has so much he wants to say that he stumbles a little. I can appreciate that. Passionate impromptu speaking does that. His tone is definitely beating out McCain though. McCain is definitely looking down on and brushing off Obama. He’s said some good things though.
Oh, they’re getting pissy now! Last question time! I’m excited.
Also, Obama looking older? I feel that can only help.

1. I’d magically know what to write for my proposal to go abroad. I have bits and pieces and they are not a semblance of a whole. argh.
2. Boy, more of that. I could totally go for some handholding.
3. My painting hw would be done/ class would get cancelled today. That’d be sweet.
4. My roommates friends would stop drinking my soda. I drink a can a day and buy accordingly. People drinking lots makes me need to buy more. Which costs money.
5. Naps!

Well, I had an impromptu lunch with coffee boy on Friday. God bless college cafeterias and boys who sit alone. He was carrying around one of the books we’d talked about on Saturday, one he’d mentioned he’d been meaning to read/pick up again (i believe he said he’d only read the first 2 pages), well, it was The Bell Jar, which I adore, so I extolled its virtues and I was kinda excited to see he had started it. ngl.
I still feel the vibe is platonic but when I went over a few things with a mutual friend she thinks there are definte signs he’s favorable to the idea after we hashed out his normal demeanor and actions versus how he acts around me. Going to see Choke with him is the plan of the hour, we both want to see it, now to just make it happen.
I went home for a wedding this weekend so I got to spend 13 hours on buses and missed alot of sleep but the wedding was lovely and I managed to not forget anything and finish my assignments on time. It was a little miraculous but also very tiring.
I’m a little behind on my work this week but I’m managing alright. Instead of working today I shopped with some friends and bought my first dunny. We’re on a designer toy kick.

Not-a-date went very well. I’m very pleased, we went out for coffee at five, forgot to eat real food, and I sent him home at eight because he was tired. Probably because of the whole not eating thing. I’m comfortable with it just staying friends more than I thought I would be. We’re both kinda quiet and are on the same page emotionally. It was all rather platonic, though there are certain things that are debatable. After showing some of our blog comments to a mutual friend she’s gung ho about us dating and thinks he’s interested.
in a more serious matter I’m going to finally get around to Sarah Palin.
Here it goes.
I’ve read so many articles I want to puke, when I watch video footage of her (or McCain for that matter)speaking I cringe. I agree with so little of the republican manifesto at the moment that there was never a real chance of me voting for John McCain. Adding a woman to the ticket makes me nauseous because it reeks of stunt. McCain has been trying to discredit Obama because of his age and lack of experience. Choosing a running mate who is younger than Obama, and has equal if not less experience trumps your argument.
It’s awful how much of a media circus the whole event has become. That’s really the part that gets me.

I had a freak out before class Wednesday night. I’ve been waiting for the medication for my acne which was supposed to arrive Tuesday. Our insurance has weirdness about doing meds month by month and since my mother likes her pharmacist, she insisted I got it filled at home and I didn’t transfer it to my local school pharmacy when I went back. So she picked them up the day I ran out(even though I’d called 4 days earlier to remind her) and overnighted it to me. After it didn’t arrive Wednesday I called my mother to check. Well she sent it to my old address. I found this out an hour and a half before a class that I didn’t want to go to. After convincing the campus security to let me check the mailroom for it(students sometimes bring shit there if the person doesn’t live there anymore) after hours(mentioning medication did the trick) and being thwarted I started losing it.
Now, I’d been feeling weird all day with a side of shitty so I started freaking out and went outside to cry behind the main building. I smoked(something I only do about once every other month), cried, cleaned myself up and went to class anyway. I survived a boring critique and went home. I was hella worried about trying to find the package and went to bed early with intent to go interrogate the housing office in the morning.
I was woken up this morning by a phone call from the post office(10 minutes before my alarm even!) saying that they had the package and asked for my address. The friendly neighborhood mailman with a oh-so-seventies mustache delivered it before noon. I was beyond excited.
I still am a little mystified and mostly just thankful. The perfection of the timing was more than a little amazing.

Well, I have not-a-date this Saturday with the boy from the previous entry. Which is exciting. It’s a step in the right direction.
My nails are currently neon pink. I’m not sure how I feel about that except entertained. Which I feel is a good opinion to take, it’s not like neon pink nails earn you respect or anything.
They’re kinda just hilarious.

My weekend so far has consisted of bubble baths, chuck palahniuk, going to bed early, Disney movies, and late night chinese food.
I have awesome friends at school. Sometimes I forget that.
In other news I’m currently getting my hopes up over a boy, which I probably shouldn’t, but all signs point to favorable so far. There has been a lot of blog flirting and a friend confirmed that he has a tendency to bring up my name dating back to this spring. So I’m giving in and hoping because sometimes I just am not that careful with my heart.
Welcome to being female. Or at least how I do it. I’m a pretty rationale human being and have been able to extricate myself from boy-situations before they go too sour or damaging but breaking the emotional ties always takes ages for me. I’m signing up for a least a couple months of emotional mayhem but I think he might be worth it.

So, I have 5 blogs. One is old and never updates anymore but was highly personal, one was more for the account and is only active in groups, this one, my actual art blog which is honest in comparison to this one, and the comcast blog (booooo comcast).
The confession is really that sometimes I forget that I’m the only one reading all of them and so my updates are a little haphazard. I recently realized this because I updated my ‘official’ art blog this afternoon and realized that i’d left numerous things out of the entry that I probably should have posted. Now, that log is read by friends, possible connection and my parents. It’s a pimping blog and I try to keep it art based and more about my work and less about me. But than I forget to write about arriving back at school and I realize, duh. Balance is a good thing.
Opps, now I have class. Later.
EDIT: Here’s a real confession: I keep listening to Bitch by Buck Cherry and Tila Tequila songs. I ADMIT IT!. Usaully my music taste is decent but lately it’s a little crazy.

There’s about eight different topics bouncing around my head and I can’t quite pick and write about any of them. So here’s quick run down:
1. I bought most of my wish list from a couple entries back this weekend. Plus some dvds.
2. Palin. I don’t even care anymore. We should all listen to Obama and leave her family out of this.
3. Boys. shit. Possibly good news on that front but I’m too paranoid to invest yet.
4. I have sketches due tomorrow at 1pm that I haven’t started. Awesome!
I felt pretty useless today but I resolved some things earlier this weekend and relaxed. I think the worst part about the weekend was that my blogs didn’t update. Booooooo.
I tried an oxygen bar this weekend! I’d say that 20 minutes in a massage chair would’ve helped whether or not there was oxygen tubes up my nose. I felt very serene afterwards but yeah. It was an experience. I’d consider it again but it’s nothing to write home about other than for the pure oddness factor.
