Shopping and Fantasy Frustration

The past couple of days have been frustrating. As I told my co-teachers on Friday, I needed some serious retail therapy. So yesterday my sister and I went shopping. We went to Urban Outfitters, where I was determined to find and buy a pair of turquoise T-strap skimmers. (I found them, tried them on, and determined them too painful. I was sad. They were beautiful shoes.) My sister had never been ...

Habits

Today sucked. It didn't seem so bad until the end, when I suffered from the kind of stress (stress of being around toddlers all day) that made me want to knock heads around or rip my eyes out. Then I went home, made a fried egg sandwich, and watched The Simpsons for the first time in like five days (I was going through some serious withdrawal there) and sulked and spent the rest of the evening ...

Tired in a Clean Apartment

A hasty entry, because I should be working. Actually, I should be sleeping, and I should have been working nearly two hours ago. Again: I was doing so well for a week, and then I got busy and then ill and fell out of writing habits, and now forcing myself back into them is rough. :-p Good day today: slept in (ordinarily the sun wakes me but today it was overcast, so I slept until 9:30!), did not...

Insert Clever Analogy About Celestial Bodies and Times of Day Here

Due to lack of writing lately, I am going through a phase where every word I put down seems to completely lack in meaning or style or anything good. But at least it's not Twilight , right? All this is stuff I wrote while reading, hence the page numbers. Page 136: This book does not seem so bad; I would call it more mediocre than terrible. I think/fear/know it will get worse. The author ...

Weekend: Mainstrasse, Birds, Antiquing

I love my little apartment, I really do. It's true that it has no central air, it's so beige that sometimes I want to rip my eyes out, it's very small, and it's in a neighborhood where cool arty people are mixed up with shady shadesters, but I do love it. Some things I love about it: -Ten-foot ceilings -Arches in my hallway -Hardwood floors (at least, they look hardwood...) in my hallway and ...

Practically Perfect

Strangely, Mondays are my favorite day of the week (after glorious Friday, of course, and the weekend doesn't even count). Less hectic. Today was chilly but sunny. And pretty much uneventful. (Well, that's a lie. Two children were injured and I spent my morning frantically scrubbing chairs in the kitchen. But I didn't feel stressed about it.) I got to go home a wee bit early and thought about ...

Damn you, IKEA!

For a few weeks there, I was very, very good about being diligent. I resisted the lure of the candy that my co-teacher brings in and keeps in our cabinet. I wasn't spending excessively. I was trying to make time for things that weren't TV and computer. Somehow, all of that has been shot in the past couple of weeks--candy, cupcakes, cookies, some kind of strange and mostly delicious Mexican store...

Sucktastic!

A good day, but a crappy evening. Yesterday (last night, I think), my computer started making that noise again and hanging up. I closed it and left it alone and then left it with my dad this morning so he could look at it for me. He called me later in the day (5:00 ish?) to say that it was fine and no longer making the noise. So I picked up the computer after dinner and it is still making the ...
