How?

I seem to have become a card carrying member of the ACLU. When did that happen? I wonder what else i've become a member of! Greenpeace? Amnesty International? PETA?!

Maybe i'm a vegan now!

Because Meat is Murder. Tasty tasty murder.

Sorry Dad!

For many years my father has gotten on my case for making all the cups in the house vanish. Apparently they end up in my room, car, bathroom, and randomly spread across the living areas. So, when he would shake his head at me and voice his disapproval i of course would have to go on the defensive because its just a cup and seriously what is the big deal of having maaaybe 2 cups dirty at any given time. I was convinced that he was just exaggerating and looking to pick a fight with me.

There are 6 cups in my bedroom with different levels of water in them. Oh look glass 7 is in bed with me and sill has water in it.

Oops. My bad.

Lost Saturday

I've lost an entire day to a headache. I woke up this morning to a slight tightening around the eyes. No big deal. Got up and wandered to the shower and tried desperately to wash what was going to be a nasty nasty migraine away. Stepped out of the shower to realize in the space of 15 minutes the pain had traveled to the left side of my head. Fun. I walked downstairs, poured a bowl of cereal, popped a dangerous amount of Motrin, and then came back upstairs to crawl into bed. One of the best things i have found in graduating to a bigger bed (spent 24 years in a twin and now ive got a full) is the amount of random crap this bed will hold and still leave enough room for me to sleep comfortably sprawled. Like at the moment i have a glass of water, a bowl of cereal, a personal dvd player, 2 books, and a laptop computer. Plus my phone, 2 pairs of pants, a sweatshirt, a coat, 3 pillows, 2 hats, 1 sheet, 1 blanket, 1 comforter, and a knife. All of this and me peacefully co-existing.

Sorta.

By 3pm the headache had turned me into a whimpering mess in my bed. Oh the pain. I could feel the veins in my temple and neck actually throbbing and i expended a good deal of energy into keeping so very still so as to not throw up. Ugh. I hate that feeling. I forget all the time that yes a person can actually feel that bad and stlll live to see the next hour. And when im all better and completely forget how horrific it is to feel like that it takes me by surprise all over again!

Its nearly 9pm and that bowl of cereal is mush. I feel slightly better.

Time for more motrin and to eat.

Uh oh. Glancing at my box of 46 bags of chips got a protest from my stomach.

Color Me Embarrassed

Did you know that the Red Sox are on Game 2 of the World Series tonight? I didn't. I didn't even know we had even made it into the World Series till i saw Kevin walking into the kitchen completely decked out in Red Sox gear. I ,oh so innocently, asked if there was a game tonight. He frequently has tickets to games and whatnot. He looked at me in complete and utter amazement and asked if i knew it was game 2 of the series.

"Er...no?"

He walked away shaking his head.

Oops. I own nothing that says Boston. Except for this cup! I supersized a McDonald's Value Meal just to get the Boston Red Sox cup so i can blend in a bit better.

Also!

Another thing i have failed to mention! On friday I received a rather large box. In it? A case of my favorite type of potato chips.
I've got a box of 60 bags of chips in my room. Well. Okay. More like 52...

Man i'm fat.

I Go Out Of My Way To Step On A Crunchy Leaf

I felt like having myself a little tea party this weekend so of course i found myself down by the harbour. And then i forgot the tea. I think, however, that i escaped a punishment most cruel by not littering because this seems to be what happens to rebellious folk these days.

That's right. They get TRAPPED IN BALLOONS and are FORCED to wear bright red tights and made to float alone upon the water.

Fall

I love this tree. It turns NEON PINK when the sun hits it just right.

Awesome

I may have mentioned once or twice before that it gets cold up here. Also, i may have mentioned that once leaving the relative warmth and comfort of my attic bedroom the temperature drops about 5 degrees and then it drops an additional 5 when one heads to the first floor. I have shivered my way to the kitchen many a night because i couldnt seem to find my coat or because i was too lazy to put on a coat that i had to walk all the way to my closet for.

So i decided i needed a robe. And i got one. And it is awesome. Notice the sheep?

Very Cold

It has been over a week since last i posted. I fail. I fail very hard. Mostly I've been working and trying to stay warm. The other day i called my mommy crying because the temperature outside was 36 degrees. I was wearing long john underwear, long pants, a sweater, a coat, a wool watch cap, and the boots i wore in Kansas when i played in the snow. I cannot wear my sneakers anymore because the cold goes right through them. I also was carrying around a steaming cup of hot chocolate but i told the yuppies who asked what i was drinking that it was coffee. I hate coffee. But Ive already been teased about my love for Tang and i shall not let them make fun of my Kresto. Can i help it that the staples of my childhood have become staples of my adulthood? Probably. I keep them around tho because they are comforting. Like a security blanket. Nothing can be wrong in the world that a cup of neon orange fruit like drink can't fix.

Except for the fact that i seem to be allergic to wool and the wearing of my hat has made me itch something fierce. No amount of Tang in the world can take my mind off of that.

Also, i find myself in need of socks. The house is a bit drafty.

Bah

Relocating is frustrating. It took me several hours a few weeks ago to update my addresses on my open accounts ranging from my cell phone service to pay pal. Even doing it online took an immense amount of time and several weeks for all of the information to be finalized. Now that i am actually receiving bills to my new address i have set myself to obtain my MA license. This has proven to be difficult because the Class E license i have does not exist up here. There is an A B C D and M but no E. I took quite a bit of time out of my day looking up the different classes and then deciding which best matches my current one. It is D by the way. The class M license requires a whole lot of stuff and i hope i don't have to take another written or road test to have my motorcycle endorsement converted to the new license. I printed up some forms and started to fill them out until i realized that there was a specific form for out of state conversions. Gah. So i shredded my half completed other form and printed up the new one and filled it out. It is now too late to head into the city to get the license because, of course, the RMV office closest to me does not deal with out of state conversions.

Its also going to cost me over 100 dollars to do all of this.

In happier news the Space Invaders gracing my wall are pretty awesome and i have managed to find and fill out a new voter's registration form.
