averygoodun42- There is a black, life-size, lego spider on the computer desk that gives me a start every time I spot it. It's shaped just like a black widow. I should tape it to the last 'spiderweb' Page had me hang up in a corner however many years ago.
- It's cold out. By the thermometer, it isn't really all that cold (39F/4C), but when I started on a nature walk for photographic purposes, I only got about two hundred paces in before I said, "Fuck it. I'm cold." The fact that the sun wasn't high enough yet had a bit to do with the decision as well, though.
- Even when it's an easier adjustment such as falling back, I still don't like the whole Daylight Savings Time thing. I don't think I'm the only one. Everyone was super cranky at the dinner table last night.
- Plus side, though, is that I was probably asleep by 10 last night.
- Homework is busting my butt. This was supposed to be the easy semester. I'm wondering if my age is showing (and I am NOT OLD, DAMMIT! Except biologically, that is...) or if the car accident in May/June shook me up far more than I thought. My thinking processes are just not... I can learn this stuff (most of which I already know something about), but it takes so bloody much energy. I really am starting to question the feasibility of joining the work force if occasional long vacations are mandatory for my health.
- Related: I told Geoff that I'm not letting myself ease up on the pressure to maintain a high grade until I get into a 4-yr school, preferably with a hefty scholarship. Fortunately, I am pretty sure I will maintain my GPA through this semester, given that I'd be setting the curve if one were used. I assume I'm going to get an A in photography, seeing as I do tend to get work in on time, but, well... Yes. I'm sluffing, and I'm afraid the teacher can see it. Don't know if that's so, but it's my fear.
- I may have sold a painting. I hung my work up at church for the month, and one of my friends loves the rather stormy tree I painted. Now I have to set a price. *meeps*
- Related: I did manage to finish a painting that's been nagging at me for, oh, a year and a halfish? to my satisfaction. To my pleasure, actually. It reminded me of why I do still paint, because while it's nice to come out with a lovely photograph, making a painting come to fruition affects me on a much deeper level. If only that were a more common occurrence...
- I woke up with Lily Allen's song, "Fuck You" in my head. It's obviously election season.
- Need to go read two more chapters of psych. Then take another nature walk. Probably with Page, though, as he needs the exercise as much as I do (though it is his gym day, so perhaps before he gets home would be better...).
- Don' wanna. ;-)
