Band/choral picnic today woooooo!
But going to get pumpkins first hooray. ^___^
Then picnic.
Then going to Mom's, staying over, and going Hallowe'en shopping tomorrow. ^____^
Yay fun.

..only this means I won't be online much..and I guess I'm passing on the bowling-thing tomorrow, Laur, nothing personal to anyone, just it came outta nowhere an' I wanna see my moooommy.
*giggles*
right. I slept well in an ICE-COLD ROOM...
But it was nice cos I curled up under mad blankets with candles burning and an ooooold old copy of "Little Women" and read for an hour or so. Very nice.
Well, until I went to blow out the candles and spilled way-too-strongly vanilla-scented candlewax all over the side of my pillow and my hand and stuff. And then if I moved like at ALL I was cold again. *laughs* But yeah...

So psychos want the computer back, so going now.. hopefully I'll be able to get on some at mom's. Not if merani comes too but... *laughs* yeahhhh anyway kbye.

10.03.2003
 
Ok so apparently we're NOT getting a goat now... cos of Dad's present-job going yeahkbye at least in part. more like mostly, McPherson is DROPPING THEIR ART LINES whaaaaat??? or something like that, from what I've gathered. so no new art stuff after now...but this means meeeeeeega-Christmas-in-autumn for this year. ^_____^

Anyway, yeah, merani-chan related this to me.. we love this..
Dad's like, yeah, so, because of the job-change and everything, and the income dropping, we're not getting a goat.
Mel's like, so if I pay for the cat (that she waaaants to get), can I get one?
Dad's like, the money has nothing to do with it.

yes, blink all you will, you will not understand. for this is dad-rationality. *g*
 
Home again, for the first time in like, what, a good month and a half? ..such a strange feeling it always is when I've been gone so long..both instantly familiar and yet alien at the same time.

Anyway, yeah. Walk in, say hi, and Briee says HI and tackle-glomps me. And I go into Mel's room and she's on the floor talking gibberish. *giggles* home sweet home...

But yeah, congregation of the little psychos here tonight, so aim time'll be interesting to work out... but I'll see what I can do. ^_^

Laur, call me when you get a chance, cos I need to work out pumpkin-getting time around band/choral picnic-time. *g*

Okyeah and merani&co are fecking LOUD. I s'pose no louder'n say, Britt and Erica, but...this is a little higher-pitched and just DOESN"T STOP LIKE EVER. *g*

So the trickiest part about writing a Mackie's-history-sorta-ficlet is the fact that, as an angel, he'd be outside of time. So I can't say like, "one day.." or "this went on for some years" or whatever. cos just...yeah. Our language (and our thinking) is trapped inside of time, and I'm writing a character and events that *aren't*. well mostly. cos admitedly, they're on earth a lot but....yeah.
*laughs* right and now I'm making it sound like this great big grand thing and it's reeeaaally not. well it kinda is, but only in my sort of general-sort of high-out-there sort of..... I don't even know. *laughs* Like the angel/devil bits in "Until the End of the World (on the edge of forever)". Only slightly more defined.
I'm a little wary of it though, cos I'm *totally* making all of it up..well not all, I'm stealing a few ideas from here and there, as usual, tying in Screwtape with the Macphisto Society and everything else but..I dunno, I really feel like I'm going out on a limb and it worries me a little..
But it's still in progress, so yeah, previews to come maybe eventually.

Also have been working on the Adam/Edge slash a bit here and there...only my libido hasn't quite returned to my still-sick body yet, so work on The Scene is going rather slow. But it'll co--- oh guuuh.
^______^

k back to work now...

So thanks to everyone for being so sympathetic and worried about me and all..... still feeling blah, so went to the health center today. And apparently there's nothing wrong with me except maybe a virus. Which's good, I'm soooo glad it's not mono. ...then again, it's almost kinda disappointing, feeling like *this* much shite and it's just a pesky virus?? *giggles* I dunno, it just feels anticlimatic or something. But the nurse said to just rest up eat well etc. and see how I'm doing by the time I get back from break this weekend. So yeah..

So my morning glories are confusing the heck outta me. It's bloomed once.. and should've bloomed two or three times more, only the about-to-blossom-buds like, get all twisted up at the end where they should open and just sort of shrivel and give up before they bloom. Unless they're like, blooming while I'm asleep and are done by the time I wake up, which is semi-plausible what with the 12 hours or so I've been sleeping the past few nights...but still. I've no idea.

It's been raining and all so much lately, I love it. Only it's cold, which sucks dreadfully.. need to remember to bust out the happy warm flannel penguin sheets. *g*

Also need to change my calendar.. it's October! Yay! ^____^ (and I've been listening to the album for a few days anyway, inc. today. happy happy.)
Ooo, it's the slashy pic!!! YAY!!!!!!!! gheeeehehehehehe, hooray for Bono/Edge. ^____^

But yeah... I've got ethics at 2, I should go. Ethical egoism whoooooo. (but even if it comes nowhere near being something *I* like..there's always a possiblity I can apply some of it to Mackie, so s'all good. ^_^)

Which Donnie Darko character are you? by Shay
Congratulations, you are Gretchen Ross. You are very perceptive of the world around you. You are a good person with strong morals. Although your life hasn't been exactly the way you would like it, you still think the world is beautiful. Good for you.

Your: Wondering eyes. Your not quite focused and your quite the day dreamer. Your a bit odd and as many say
You're: Wondering eyes. You're not quite focused and you're quite the day dreamer. You're a bit odd and as many say "Your head is in the clouds."


What type of eyes do you have?
brought to you by Quizilla

so.. quizzes with four questions and like, 3 or 4 possible answers each with easily predictible answers are fun...*giggles* okno. that's why the answer to one isn't here cos there were literally three very stereotypical answers. I think quizilla makes things too easy...thus we get moron-quizzes.
*look who still takes them..*
okshush.
..but check the mouse-over to see just how little people can cope with their own friggin' language. I had to fix it in the text, it pained me too much. YOUR does not equal YOU'RE, people. >___< gah.
 
So... at work again. *g* What it is, is dinner-break from 7-8. Which's good cos it'll give me time to eat, since I'm supposed to be over here like right after class. 'Course, today, got outta drawing *mad* early cos our sweet wonderful professor (who gave me a C on the cemetary drawing..which has me depressed so I'm not in a very kind mood) had mega-back pain or something and left like five minutes after class started. Thus, we all spent maybe, what, half an hour, 45 minutes tops on the class-assignment, and left. So I actually had time to go over to Erie for dinner with people, not that I was hungry, still being sick. meh.
Admitedly tho, I'm feeling a fair bit better, felt like shite when I woke up but took some aspirin and my head actually un-pressurized a bit, and my cramps decided to let up some, so s'all good.
Anyway, yeah. One of these days I'll update like I mean to, I think I'm just gonna randomly put up some of the random shite I've been writing.. ..ok it's not all *shite*, at least I hope, but y'know.. *g*
My cd player's been randomly on crack all day, it like, stops playing for anywhere from a second to like a minute, keeps spinning but it's like it's paused only it's not, the time-indicator all goes away and I've not hit anything, but then it'll pick back up again after however long, right where it left off. So I don't even know. Tho I s'pose it might have something to do with me accidentally knocking it from the pile of stuff next to the bed onto the floor this morning when I was looking (unsuccessfully) for my keys... (which I found, after class, in my friggin' JACKET POCKET HI. not that I'd been wearing it..which is why I hadn't thought to look there, I haven't worn it much, nor are my keys generally in those pockets anyway..but yeah.)
So... I definitely have like an hour to kill. Hmm. Ehm... really, not much of interest to report, most of my weekend was spent sleeping and slashing, as usual.. went to Paper Factory with Britt and Jen and drooooled over Hallowe'en stuff.. and I bought a nice red and white official-looking EXIT sign for my room. For one, it's amusing, and two, "Exit"'s a U2 song. ^___^ (ok so actually I thought of the U2 song first, but... c'mon, it was like a buck, and it's awesome. *g*)
Broke out the Best Of 1990-2000 cd today cos it's been awhile.. new version of "Numb". My Larry siiiings and it's so pretty and gheeee yay he's awesome. <3 <3 <3
*giggles*
Ehm...
So MEGS IS COMING TO VISIT ME YAAAAAAAAAAYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *bouncing* Not 'til like November but still! *bounce bounce bounce* We're mad excited already. (Like you couldn't tell.. *giggles*) We're planning on her coming down on a Thursday night (and it occured to me earlier that I'll have to work out something with Heidi cos if Megs' flight gets to Buffalo at 9.40 and we're picking her up - which I'm planning on working out - we'd leave here by like 8 so working yeah. but that's not hard, I can work Wed. night or something instead, s'all good. ^_^) and staying 'til Sunday and she can come to class with me Friday if she wants. *giggles* Cos it's just music history and ethics on Fridays, music history's a big class and he'd never notice anyway, ethics there're plenty of spare seats.. and I just sit and take notes anyway, plus maybe Megs could actually help me get to class on *time*---! ^^;
But yaaaaaaaaaaay. ^_____^ *bounces*
And Hallowe'en is coming soon, I need to get costume-stuff. Only I need $ and I won't get my first paycheck 'til like, Hallowe'en. >_< So I think when I go home this weekend (that's right, Laur, I keep forgetting to ask you, you home this weekend too? I'll be back Fri-Tues), I'll have someo--ok I'll have *Mom* take me to the bank and get some $ out (cos Dad'd be all like, blah about it) and get stuuuuuff and it will be good. ^__^ (Really, I'd kinda like to go see if I can scrounge anything at the Salvation Army in Dunkirk here first..only I dunno if I'll get a chance to. Really, all I need tho are wings (Party City or Paper Factory), some gauzy-stuff (not sure where I'm getting that yet), and like, metallic spray and pearl-strands and/or ribbons and/or whatever other little decorative thingies I find that're cool (Michael's).
And then I get to work like mad crazy to get it all together by Hallowe'e--- oh shite, I still haven't figured out the pants-part yet! *laughs* ehm...hmm. ah well, will come up with something... *g*
...hey actually, like, silk pj pants might work cool...I'm gonna need to get a shirt-thing to attach that lace to anyway..hmm....
okanyway... I've babbled enough here for now, think I'll go check around the other blogs before I have to go back to sweeping and all. ja ne~
