those are the miracles you pray for...

...so get down on your knees!

i'm in an incredibly goofy mood right now!  i don't know why, i don't know how.  but, there you have it.  i'm all kinds of giggles, and have been dancing around the house with ruby while making marinara sauce for dinner.  

i have to go get scott at 3.30, and then rush him home, and rush myself back to work, woo!  good times!  

i have so much to read tonight/tomorrow.  i need to read my PHIL book, and need to work on my HWC (second paper).  and then saturday!!!  i get to put up the wall!  and i get to put in the counters!  derek you should come help!  i'll buy you dinner!  i'm serious!  exclamation point!

i have to figure out the backsplash still.  i've been told to try this little interior design place downtown, but they are expensive like WOAH!

speaking of expensive, i think we've shifted the car pick for scott.  and i'm not quite sure how he feels about it, 'cos it's more than he was wanting to spend... hmmmmmmm...  i think we'll be making our final decision friday.  (i hope so, 'cos i'm getting damn sick of driving him around all the time LOL)  it's not that i mind that much, it's just all the other little errands i have to run in addition.  ya know?  like having to run to the grocery store 3 times in a row, or having to get the crap i forgot on campus and running scott to get the stuff out of his old car... all that kinda stuff.

i ran through a bunch of "super bowl" recipes today, too, and i found a really yummy looking spinach/artichoke dip.  i'm pretty excited to try it out!  especially now that i have a new crock to cook it in!  yay!  

okay, i think i'm going to run around in circles for a bit before picking scott up.

blurble blurble blurble

i was up at 5a today for work.  i feel as if i am walking around in a daze.  (i also get really really short tempered with people when i'm this tired, so i apologize to anyone i may have snapped at today)

anyhow, i got my oil changed yesterday.  woohoo.  i spent nearly 2 hours there, and only 15m were actually spent on my car.  does this seem wrong to anyone else?  (not the waiting, i anticipate a wait, but that it only took them 15m? i'm worried my car didn't receive the attention s/he needed)  oh well, at least it's good to go for my trek up north.

i really need to get to KC tonight.  i need to get a coat that is warm enough to wear in the winter.  

alright.  two more things.  

1) classes start tomorrow. *sigh*  three weeks for my final winter break just seems like such a gip. 

2) i'll be rid of the evil motorolla phone on friday evening!  horray!  goodbye white screen of death!

i need something to eat.

stuff. i guess.

i've got a warm ruby lap-top right now.  *giggle*

i painted my little hallway today.  it's nearly pepto pink.  but not exactly, so that's good.  i also decided to do a little bit of work in the kitchen, and ended up with a lot more on my plate than i was expecting.  oy.  oh well.  it'll look really good soon.  and that's all that counts, right?

i need to get an oil change in the tucson tomorrow, since i'll be driving it up to minneapolis next week-end.  (maybe)  regardless, after all the milage that's already been put on it *cry* it needs an oil change.  i can't believe it already has over 3000 miles on it, and i've only had it since oct 31st. by next monday, i'll have 4200 miles on it.  OY!  

anyhow.  i should cut my nails.

i need a title.

i was singing along to some LOUD ass black-lady gospel music today, when a knock came at the door. embarrassing!

anyhow, today i'm feeling a bit better, though still embittered. for serious. i think this will rage inside me for a very long time. california is really one of the only places that i could have seen gay marriage lasting. i think this is going to speak volumes for how the rest of the country is going to go. whatever. fucking morons.

what else did i do today?
i did shit tons of dishes. went to class. worked on a paper. cleaned a bit of the house. had dinner at this new deli in town (pretty yummy mavis, we should eat there sometime). listened to odd music. got my winter installment of burt's beeswax lip balm (i get one every winter). thought about someone.

i also watched it flurry today! for real! i was sitting in my ENG 314 class, and it's on the top floor of wescoe, and i noticed the rain was acting funny. it was acting funny, 'cos it was, in fact, snowflurries, NOT rain! it was very soothing to watch, though it only lasted about 3 minutes.

i still really like my new car. it's very nice being able to have the hatch unlocked without having to get the keys out when i'm trying to put ruby in there.
