A Recap of the Summer So Far

Because I'm horrible at posting regularly...

A) my father and brother moved to town, we now live together in a townhouse near Extreme Bean.

B) had a huge fallout with one of the most important people in my life, because they did something very, very stupid and hurtful which i may or may not have forgive them for yet.

C) fell back in with the above mentioned person, not everything is repaired (yet), but we're both working on it.

D) decided not to take German 101 this summer, so as to not lose my mind. 30 hours of work and an hour and a half of class every day + commuting, all between the hours of 7am-5pm + homework, seemed a bit much...oh, and i'd be moving during all of that, too. yeah, i'm glad i opted out.

E) if you are on campus you are probably too hot and have cockroaches. thanks for telling us time and time again...the first three times just didn't quite get the message through.

F) haven't lost my job yet, but we'll see what happens with the state budget. cross your fingers, as i really, really need this job.

G) as a direct result of B) and kind of C), I decided to take a break from [serious] dating this summer. this endeavor is pretty hilarious. so far i don't have a significant other, as defined by facebook/myspace, but i do have an other or two (three?) that i would consider significant, just not in the exlusive, title-having way. everyone is significant, really.

H) a) i've been incredibly poor.

H) b) as a direct result of A) i will soon have money for things like tea, tattoos, and tcredit tcard tpayments.

I) i started the summer with five piercings, then went to six, and am now at four. i started the summer with two tattoos, and now have three. got a compass rose on my right arm (my friend's second tattoo on a human)

J) i started the summer with three cats, and now have two. [sademoticon]

K) as a direct result of A), i now do not know if my hallucinations at night are hallucinations or just my brother or father walking around or really people coming to rape and kill me. isn't that fun? no, it's really not.

L) yes, we know you are too hot and have roaches. the roaches are probably too hot, too.

M) as an indirect result of B) and a direct result of H)a), and some other things, i've stopped performing as a drag king.

N) i'm in great need of bookcases and NES games.

O) in conjunction with G), have decided to stop dating jerkfaces, or those who might be jerkfaces in the future. have decided to get to know someone for no less than three months before getting involved in a facebook/myspace defined, exclusive, and/or serious relationship with said person.

P) yes...we know that you are too hot. stop calling.

Q) have noticed hair growing suspiciously longer, and am unsure what to do about the situation.

R) Coffee Plantation on Mill Ave closed. let's not talk about it. there is now absolutely no reason to go to Mill Ave.

S) at work we are losing a full time person (but will be allowed to hire someone to fill their spot), AND are being allowed to get a student worker. heck yes.

T) have made it a goal to start buying lots of the books that are on my amazon.com wishlist. i'm not sure it's realistic to try to buy "all" of them, because i keep adding more. this is related to N)

U) have realized that i will put up with you having herpes, and i will put up with you being a jerface sometimes, but if you are ALWAYS a jerkface AND have herpes, i will probably break up with you and not want to be your friend. thanks for getting so butthurt about it. grow up.

V) i am still addicted to Grey's Anatomy. damnit.

W) have noticed an increase in femininity, possibly related to M)

X) have rediscovered my love of making lists and flowcharts and outlines.

Y) i really, really want to weave, but my father's guitars are currently in front of Reggie, my loom.

Z) still am not sure how many degrees i am going to try to earn before leaving school. addiction? fear of life? love of learning? yes. need for money-earning degrees? hah! no...i want degrees in fibers, english, women's studies, queer studies, philosophy, german, sociology, social work, education, psychology, and possibly mathematics.
