*yawn*

pretending to be an adult makes me tired.


so hard to find alone time, and class hasn't even started.

thank the gods for teekl.

ponyo= maternal instinct instigator

PONYO was brilliant, everyone should see it.

The dubs were a bit weird at times (hard to ignore the fact that Qui Gon's voice is the sea-dude....)
and sometimes there were weird "I need to say this thought aloud" things, but for the most part it was just astonishingly adorable.

having so much fun here in b-town, and I'm feeling a lot better.

orientation+ getting my id= feeling like a real student.

I'm still free tomorrow, but come monday I'll feel in the system again.
but it will be a good feeling.

for realz?

just met a ton of other people in the program. not a single person I dislike, or even mistrust.
I'm sure there'll be someone, but I love everybody so far, and Dalia is coming into town, and Jenny might even be here already! apparently, nearly everyone decided to move to the eastside of town. Dalia and I have plans made to watch a duo that I know would live on the eastside, probably in Deer Park Manor or something....

everybody seems very happy to be here and ready for fun and learning, and there are more babies like myself and Kate, which helps me to not feel like a child in the midst of people pretending to be grown-ups (pssh). we have all the fun.

still feel like this is not my life.

my legs are still screwed up, I am drinking kombucha like a madwoman, hoping it cures all the things that are wrong with me right now. it has a teeny bit of alcohol in it, so it always feels a little bit exciting drinking the foul stuff (flavored properly it doesn't taste that bad).

seeing PONYO tomorrow with Kelly (who is so crazy in the best way EVER) Kate, and Shannon, and that's going to be wonderful....

ta ta for now

I get it now.

Even though I've had several, I've never felt the need to start a blog weigh as heavily as today.
I understand now. Why do I want one? Because I'm lonesome in a new place and I can't figure out what kind of creature I am at this moment.

I need to write it out, you see.

ego stroking? desperation? perhaps.

more like English Major's Delight ...

A few things for firsts.
1) I love this town, for all sorts of reasons.
Like.... this amazing wonderland is really close to my house, and to be a lifelong member its only $90 (refundable at any time you want).

2) I have lost the ability to drive well, and it makes me nervous.
As long as I don't turn up on T.V. for the "worst drivers ever" show, I'll be ok.

3) My apartment is straight out of Twin Peaks. lots of wood paneling
and the owls... well, they're here. I'll be putting up pictures soon.

4) Teekl is the best best best cat in the entire world. Except when he takes all the toilet paper off the roll. tomorrow I may try to get him to walk w/ the harness. we'll see how that goes.


so things are great.
I just watched the FALCORPS DVDs, both of them, and managed not to cry about it.
I laughed a lot though, in a nice way.

however.... I feel incredibly weird. I feel like I'm asleep, and that I'm dreaming, and that my dream is the life I'm living right now, the life of another person.
I have no idea what this other person is doing.... I feel like Tony Soprano when he's in a coma and he's living the life of that "Kevin" person. Only there's not a "light" far off in the distance...

I don't feel sad, but I do feel disassociated. I just haven't a clue as to what it's all about right now... and my legs are still messed up. Damn chiggers or whatever the hell has cursed me, but I'm too distracted to worry about it.

that's all for now.
