  • morning person?

    i am so far from a morning person but the thing is, i don't like to feel rushed so the earlier i have to be somewhere, the earlier i try to get up.

    this morning i am substituting for a class at the institute at 9:30 but i don't leave here until around 9 or a little after. so why did i get up before 7? well, i could blame it on the mother & say i had to get up to move my car so she could get out of the driveway but if that were the only reason, i could have easily just parked on the street last night when i got home. another possible reason--i have lots of school stuff i *need* to work on (i.e. take-home exam due tomorrow, paper due next week, 2 research papers due later this semester, a million pages of Tolkien, 5000 sonnets (give or take a few) and the list goes on...). good reason, yes? well here i sit all ready to work on that take-home--it's even pulled up on my screen--but chances are (and you know as well as i do) that chances are, i'll wait until tonite after i get home from class to do it.

    ...so here i am, procrastinating like any good college student, and all i can think about is that old relient k song (college kids), which then leads me to limewire because i wanna listen to it, the song that is, and i'm too lazy to find my copy of the cd. and opening limewire is always a bad idea for me--once i start, i think of something else i want to download and that something else reminds me of a different something else and before i know it, i've wasted away the time into nothing.

    well before i ramble on too much, there are a few things that i want to say.
    1. i've corrupted sam & chrissy into going to starbucks with me between tolkien & sociolinguistics. if they go into debt, i take full responsibility.
    2. last night's episode of gilmore girls was amazing but i fear that this is the last season.
    3. i don't have enough patience to work with people who work with kids. the kids are fine for the most part--it's the adults, who feel the need to turn an after-school program into a nazi workcamp, that i have trouble dealing with.
    4. i change my mind more than a fly changes directions.

  • i too am quite fly-like.  and i must say that i miss gilmore girls. i used to watch it with such diligence, but i'm afraid i've lost track of it. what's going on? remember when we used to call each other after buffy the vampire slayer?

  • dear kristie,
    i'm thinking of you. i've been thinking of a lot of people who i haven't seen lately. and there's been some good music playing around here, but a lot of it makes me sad... cross that. not really sad, but more emotional than i usually feel. it helps me to feel and that's good. i'm not crying my eyes out, just thinking and feeling. it's good. i'm happy and content and feeling things.
    and i'm thinking of you. I hope you're well.

    love, katherine
