This, That and a Bag of Lettuce

Hello loyal readers!
Hell- who am I kidding.. Whaddup to the 4 people who might read this thing eh? Make yourselves heard. Comments don't hurt or cost anything... dooo it.

The big news of late for me is of course my acceptance to DAL. Yeah wooot! I gotter done. And now to get done the rest of this school year. It strikes me that it is March and woah, I am running out of money, ambition and health. I always hate this final push because you are so freaking close, yet you've been given'er for 7 months already, and you're tired. You're damn tired as a matter of fact. And of course, money and health runs out too. Is there a correlation? Who knew that eating KD and salad from a bag isn't so health as it may seem. At least in res there was all kinds of healthy food to ignore. I feel kinda lame eating cereal for supper these days since I do have the means to cook something. I do know one thing- if i have to eat another burnt stirfry i might just ralph.

And speaking of food, my mom sent me a care package(!!!!!)
Crackers, cheese, bread, CAKE, popcorn and peppermints. Yes. Rock on mom. My mom loves me more than your mom loves you. Have doubts? Ask yuorself when the last time was YOUR mom sent you cake....

And so if it were no blatantly obvious already, I am not the next martha stewart. Did you know there is actually a place on the internet that tells you how to do laundry? Yeah, I read it ok? Its not that I don't know how, its just that lately the washing machiene and I haven't exactly been on good terms. I say, "wash my clothes" and it says "FU MEL!" and proceeds to spew its contents on the floor, or produce double suds that force me to do a whole new wash cycle just to get rid of them. Its a tough life. I swear it.

I have also been in a huge musicl rut lately. I am now up to almost 7 days worth of music on my computer alone, plus the 100+ CD's that I have. Except I don't want to listen to ANY of it. So like, WTF? I feel like I've sort of exhausted my possibilities. I've done the classic rock thing, I've done the 90's thing, I'm done the "the" bands thing, I continue to detest the 80's save for U2, the police and I'm sure a few others that I am neglecting in my haste. But yeah, its like 5000 songs and nothing to listen to.

Tomorrow night I am going to see "Be Cool" it seems like it should be pretty... cool. And sober. which is the main point. Because lets face it, I've been no stranger to the bottle as of late, and this month has some major drinking days in it (st. patty's day, evan's birthday, cheap monday night drinking.. etc) so i don't want to drink up the budget before the first week of the month is even over.

School is.. school. I am determined to get an A in something. As an overall mark, not just on an assignment. I feel like it's totally in reach for more than just a few classes, but will I do it? Or will I cop out and retreat to my loft in favour of the company of my televsion? Sweet sweet satellite TV I will miss you...

Anyway, the dishes call my name, the history essay mocks me and I am wishing it was May.

Reading this made me realize.... I really want school to be done, in fact it should have ended yesterday. However, I have a nice high tech wash machine that I only have to push two buttons and it does everything else for me... I can be thankful for that.
