hmm, i ought to be writing my stories for class but i still have no idea what to write about....we have to choose a personal experience that was important in our lives, but i hate realism. seriously, if i can't put a soliloquizing banana or screaming jack o' lantern or adventure penguin in it, why should i even bother? i was thinking of writing about the day i got Maud (my puppy - yes, technically she's still a puppy despite her bigness) but unless i could make her a FLYING puppy, i don't think it will be interesting. or i'd write about Zack, theres plenty of happy stories i could write about him, but the thing is i have to write the story 3 times, once from my perspective, once from another characters perspective, and once as an omniscient narrator. i don't know how Zack would tell the story so i wouldn't be ok with writing it. plus i'm sure everyone i've ever talked to is sick of hearing me talk about Zack, him being my favorite subject and all. speaking of which, the reason i'd better get working on the homework is so i can go see him. not like i won't get to see him if i don't do it, but its not like i want to stay up doing it tonight or get up early to do it tomorrow. damnit, realism fucking blows.

greetings....i didn't get home till 2 a.m. last night cuz me and Zack and his friend) had a really long Soul Calibur 2 tournament....i think the character i want to learn is Maxi, he's the guy with nunchucks and the only character i've been able to beat Zack's Cervantes with (well, besides Voldo, i should learn him better too, he's a cool hissy guy with blades on his hands). if you don't play this game you probly don't care, and even if you do you probly don't care. but yeah, that was fun.
yesterday was a busy busy day, no wonder i fell into bed and fell asleep in my clothes (pleather is not pleasant to sleep in but i guess i was too tired to care). when i got up yesterday, i made Zack's giant birthday cookie, then went to class, then had a physical therapy appt (for my back...i'll be fine, don't worry), then work, then over to Zack's. ok, that may not actually be that busy for some people, but its the busiest day i've had in months, i swear. huh, i wonder when i'm gonna do my homework, i'm going over to Zack's shortly and when i get home i'll prbly just want to go to bed, i have to write another 55 word story too cuz one of mine sucks, i guess i could just type the ones i have up now. i probly won't, i bet i'll end up doing it tomorrow morning, but i'm ok with that.
its nice to not have to work today. and to not smell like bleach. yuck yucky yuck.
i know the people who read this are far from old, but does anyone have any insight into why old ladies adore me??? i don't get it. all the old ladies at Skolfield House are nuts about me, they think i'm adorable. which is better than having them think i was hideous i suppose, but i don't know why it is. i remember working at Friendly's and old women always telling me i was pretty when they were paying. ??????
hey, i have found the official best way to cure a sore throat: suck on Jelly Bellys. no chewing, just suck, like a throat lozenge only much tastier. the caramel flavor is yuck tho, and i still hate the peanut butter, margarita and cinnamon, but i'm ever so glad the champagne punch and Hawaiian punch are gone. i miss the jalapeno, even tho i'm still not sure if i ever ate one, just cuz they've been in the mix forever. and damnit, i know they make blackberry, but its not in the mix!!! i prefer going to the Jelly Belly store in the mall and making my own mix, plus i can put the yummy seasonal flavors in it (like carrot cake and pumpkin pie and gingerbread and mulled cider). i wish they hadn't discontinued the already rare graham cracker ones, cuz seriously, SMORE. k, i love Jelly Bellys too much. for my birthday i want one of those big Jelly Belly dispensers, they look like gumball machines but with the Jelly Belly logo. Jelly Bellys are all like "IN YOUR FACE OTHER CANDIES!!!! BOOYAH, 39 REGULAR FLAVORS PLUS SOURS AND SEASONALS!!!" (those sours are awesome, btw).
my scalp's been itchy lately, but i haven't conditioned in a few days so thats probly why. its tangling up nicely tho, i guess i shouldn't wash it every day but till i get a dreading kit or find someone with the know-how and patience to dread it for me, i'm not cool with not washing it yet. i'll learn to deal but since i'm mostly clueless on the topic, i'm, um, prepping....you know, baby steps.
