Gordon Lightfoot, Don't Beat Me Down
I thinkt he problem with the quotes recently is that my life is boring and therefore it's hard to find meaningful quotes about it. Grr. This one is fairly true but unrelated to today. Yippee.
Well, today I got something accomplished. Sort of. But not as much as I'd hoped I would.
I got up in the middle of the night and watched the computer clock change to daylight savings time. Then Sean got online, so I talked to him for a while before going back to sleep. I miss him considerably more than is reasonable.
Anyway, got up in time for brunch today, so I ate in the Bon for the first time in a while. The food wasn't exactly gourmet fare, but it was fun to talk to people for a change. I sat with Jen, Alison, Becca, Aaron and I forget who all. Then they left so I grabbed a donut and talked with Jeff, Jesse, Lurch/James, Jessica and Chris (P.) for a while. Jeff and I seem to be on better terms again. I'd like it if we could somehow be friends again.
Then I came back to my room and cleaned for a bit. I then got a phone call from Matt, who wanted to borrow my CS book. We discovered that neither of us had started the CS homework yet, so we decided to work on it together. We got all but one problem done. So that was the constructive portion of my day.
Then I decided to take a shower. I spent several hours brushing out my hair (it's past my waist and was rather tangled, and also I got distracted by old Brunching Shuttlecocks articles) and quite a while in the shower itself. So that killed a few hours. Then I went out to the lounge and talked with people for a while. Then Joey, Jessica, Chloe and I went to Fred Meyer's to get various stuff and also a birthday present for Toni. I got conditioner, Peeps (which I decided might taste good in hot cocoa, since they're basically marshmallows), cheese puffs of some kind and "milk flavored" easter bunnies. Little bitty ones that cost $0.33. Anyway. I was in kind of a junk foodish mood I suppose. Then we went through the Wendy's drive-thru and back to campus for Toni's party. That was fun. I wish my birthday were during the school year. Ah well.
I still don't have any idea what I'll do this summer, and it's starting to bug me. Acck. I wish I had either a job or a place to stay. If I had one, then I'd know what city to look for the other one in. As-is, I'm adrift. Urk.
And I miss Sean. Yay me. I just want to curl up next to him, close my eyes, and be happy just being near him. But failing that, I'm going to braid my hair, brush my teeth and go to bed. Oh, and I'm going to wear a skirt tomorrow. Jessica and I have decided to both wear skirts until further notice just to worry people. This should be fun. If I drag out the short skirt and the tie-dyed dress, I have enough skirts here to last a week...I suppose I should go home and round up the rest of them.
