have started packing a little. only a few boxes done. don't want to deal with it, the whole "crack den" atmosphere that a packed apartment gives off. the kitchen is where i really should start. i need more boxes that are small.
got 1 minute 16 seconds on the SET puzzle. yeah. a little obsessed.
stressful week. want to curl up and cuddle.

1 minute and 24 seconds on the SET puzzle. very awesome. don't think i'll be beating that anytime soon.
life otherwise = good too. doing some new things in sword which are hard but exciting. moving in a week to a much nicer apartment and have yet to pack (am bribing sword men with beer and pizza to help me move). dealing okay with working 8 hours and finding things to do with my evening time. pretty much none of my friends are in town this weekend, so nothing too exciting going on. off to visit the family for the day, which should be pleasant.

so exams are over and summer's started. which is great, except for the whole working 40 hours a week thing. i'll survive, of course, especially as the extra money will help pay off my credit cards and maybe got on a trip or two. but staring out at the sunlight is enough to drive anyone crazy when i really just want to play. only one semester left before this becomes my semi-permanent fate. god knows i'm likely to end up back in grad school of some kind rather than work 40 hours or more a week.
i've been pretty efficient today, despite the overcast skies. got up and went grocery shopping before heading in to the bookstore. (it's my lunch break at the moment) had a good weekend, with graduation parties and onion softball games, a trip to the movies (down with love is light and fun and features dreamy ewan mcgregor) and a lovely breakfast with evan. hopefully a good start to a good week.
by the by, grapes are yummy.

try the SET puzzle. 2 minutes, 57 seconds. the logical part of my brain is finally returning. or whatever part is being tested by this.
i got the opinion columnist position at the daily cardinal for next fall. i'm pretty excited about it. nice way to finish out my college career the way it started: living with erica and writing for the paper.
turned in the constitutional law final. now i need to write the international law take home. i've got it outlined, so i'll sit down to write as soon as i've showered. maybe, if i work fast, i'll finish it up today. that would be awesome.

ah, tornadoes. the sirens still activate instinctive terror in me, just like when i was a child. the tv stayed on local stations tonight so i could be ready to run into the hallway that goes toward the laundry room, as it's probably the safest place in the house. no windows, no furniture, just walls and floor. better safe than sorry. i would have taken my laptop with me, as well as a blanket to cover myself with. i think these things through. the laptop because, well, i'm using it for exams and it's on my lap anyway, the blanket in a vague attempt to protect myself from debris, as dragging a mattress in would be difficult. though i suppose the futon mattress could have done well. needless to say, none of these thought process mattered as (knock on wood) the isthmus continued its tornado free history by not getting hit tonight. just the sirens going off and the fear in my gut that no rational thought can dispell while that shrill whine rings through the air.

tonight alan told me i should be a naughty librarian for a living, take up the lifestyle and career of a dom. meredith's opinion? "you should. you'd be great at it. you're scary, but sexy."

my roommate has a beauty and an eloquence that she always hides when it's at its height. at the rate she's going she will never see how much she touches some people, nor her own value to herself.

last night was team onion softball's first game of the season. for those of you unfamiliar, go here: www.teamonion.com. there you will find our trademark is spectacular loss. this year, however, has started off in a very strange way. we won. 18-2. the onion won a game. it's a very strange world. i've started off the season batting .666 (better than ever before) and 2 RBIs (something i don't think as happened in the last four years). i was bouncy and all over the place and it was a great time.
later that evening was the daily cardinal end of the semester party. from there i managed to catapult myself directly into gossip central.
today was spent being sleepy but enjoying the beautiful beautiful day. and getting sunburned. i wonder if i'll still be red tomorrow or if the tanning skills my skin acquired last summer will reemerge. it doesn't seem to hurt, which is a start.

i had a long talk with a friend tonight, about some things that happened in the fall. i think i feel a little better for it, letting some of the anger and hurt go. it's been eating at me for too long, and it broke through today, though i didn't mean to let it. i think things are okay. i think it was understood for what it was.
i let my life be more complicated than it needs to be. i guess it makes things interesting. it also makes things more difficult. i'm tired of everything being difficult. maybe right now i'm just tired. i only wish sleep didn't mean an empty bed and bad dreams.
/end emo. really. i'm okay. generally happy even. but a girl is allowed to be a little sad sometimes, when life warrants it.
