fixin' shit

it's 5.25p and 47°F.  i wish i could go for a bike ride, but it's already getting dark 'cos of the cloud cover.  

barf.  i just finished my ENG 334 midterm and i'm not really sure how i feel about it. oh well, it's done.  

anyhow, i also got an hours worth of ink put in my arm today.  yay!  judith actually got a WHOLE lot done in that hour.  horray!  yay for that!

i need to go figure out this thermocoupler thing now.

i'm a bit sore. duh.

hey folksters.

i got quite a bit accomplished yesterday/today. that's pretty super! and we judith got so much done on my arm today too! it looks pretty amazingly fantastic! now it looks like one whole piece, not two separate pieces.

anyhow, very quickly now,
can you believe it's been 10 years (on oct 12) since matthew shepherd was murdered? insane. (and so little has been done about the murderers)
*sigh*

before i slip into a deep sleep of edith wharton.

bleh.  i can't stand edith wharton.  at all.  this class would be infinitely better if it were kate chopin, willa cather and louisa may alcott, or charlotte perkins gillman, or zora neale hurston... edith wharton just makes me crazy.  all of her obsessive description... and going off randomly throughout the page... 

okay.. that's a bit like me, but i don't go on and on about a topic, (for sometimes literally pages at a time) and then shift into another thought.

random thought for the day

i smell like dandelions.  for some reason, the sunblock i use, when combined with tattoo goo smells just like dandelions.  

another random thought

my upper arm feels like someone stuck their cigarette against it.  ouch.  it really friggin hurts.

i've been up since shortly after 5, and i'm having trouble focusing (shocker, eh?) but i just drank far too much caffeine, and it's making me all jitters!  and the dog is sitting on the couch next to me making grunting whiney sounds.  (she's trying to tell me to take her on a walk)

i guess i should go do something productive now.

later folksters.

welcome to my brain. it's pretty scary.

i'd been a big user of livejournal.  but lately it has been leaving something to be desired.  

anyhow, i decided to try blogspot out for a little bit, and we'll see where it takes us.

lately, i've been healing from my latest bout of tattooius-armacillus.  and trying to keep myself from staph infection.  ;)   the sleeve is REALLY starting to look fantastic.  i can't wait until it's done though! 

what else have i been doing?  reading.  reading reading and more reading.  this week, plato's trial and death of socrates, edith wharton's the house of mirth and more poetry for my british lit class.  (i think we're doing more coleridge this week).  

hmm..  i'm patiently awaiting a package from veganerotica.com, but it's all hand crafted, so it takes forever...  for now, i'm off to read.  

l'shalom haverim.
