As a general fashion rule
i avoid shirts with witty sayings on them (not that i judge other people who proudly wear theirs, mostly because i love to read them, kind of like bumper stickers), but i’m considering this one:

Instead of last-minute packing for my trip - Florida, honey, woot! - or even finishing that analysis of the Metamorphosis like i should be doing, i’m dancing around my room, listening to “Short Dick Man”

HALLOWEEN PLANS:
Rent movies
Eat candy
Watch movies
Eat more candy
Mischief night has never really been big here.
Which is good - our house has never been TP-ed or any such mischievous crazy kid act of vandalism. I’ve lived here in this neighborhood in Jersey for the majority of my life, though, so all i have to compare our goosey nights to are TV sitcoms and bad straight-to-video movie renditions. Which means i have no idea if those pranks actually get pulled on anyone, ever. But, either way,...

I got prints of pictures of Andy Warhol partnered with quotes from him that i got from one of the Smithsonian museum’s gift shops and i got them for me, because they look good, but can i just say? I’m not a huge Warhol fan. Just puttin’ that out there. His art is… it just doesn’t fit with me. The cans? They don’t resonate with me or anything. People go crazy for...

Straight chillin'.
We’re having kind of a lazy day here. I slept late, read a little, watched Freaks and Geeks with Lenore.
Later we’re gonna go hang out with MorningGloria and watch Jersey Shore. I’m pretty excited to meet one of my favorite internet people IRL. (Now i hope she doesn’t read this and think i’m uncool. Oh, no! Must. Fight. Insecurities!) Plus i need to catch up on my...

Are you kidding me with this shit?

Going to Lenore's!!
First thing in the morning! I’m really excited to see her. I had a dream that my other sister and i drove to Lenore’s in the middle of the night. See? Even my dream-self is anxious to get there.
I take off for the airport at 5:30 tomorrow morning.

I was at my aunt's house this past weekend
with my momma, visiting with my aunt and her adorable children. And oh my god they are the cutest. kids. ever. I love them so completely (and they love me, too, which surprises me but just makes me feel so great).
On the second day, i managed to catch some shots of them:
averageshark asked: Hey the octopus that I am knitting for you is going really well are you excited for when it is done because I am. Also we should hang out?

To anyone who cares:
The easiest way to put it is: My Latin test did not go as well as i had hoped it would go.
And i am upset.

I hate my school.
Someone, please, just pick up the damn phone and tell me if i’m actually taking this Latin test. Tell me if i’m studying for nothing. Tell me if i should bother coming in this morning.
And after you tell me “No, yes, no,” i will tell you that you are wrong. I will make you give me this test because i spent all summer studying, for fuck’s sake.
And, World Languages...

True story: I’ve read The Corrections before, because I was in love with gregtron. He read Infinite Jest because he was in love with me. I will say, not to put too fine a point on it, that he liked Infinite Jest way more than I liked The Corrections. We gave a copy to sinope one year for her birthday and she was pretty open about hating it. There is something important to know...

It's a race to the shower!
Sinope vs. the Elder Sister! Who will be the victor?!
And another thing,
The stakes are high, because if i don’t do well on the Latin final, then i have to sit through a year of stuff i’ve already spent my entire summer learning and i will be so bored i might chew off my own foot. Well, that’s a little extreme, i guess, but one thing’s for sure: I will not be able to take it, you guys, i know that.

I don’t remember if i mentioned this before, but i have a big ol’ test coming up, because i got a Latin tutor this summer so that i could skip a year of Latin and go straight into the third year, and to get accepted into Latin III i have to get a good grade on the final exam. And if i want to be in Latin III Honors, which i really do, i have to get a great grade on that big test.

It would be much more than an understatement if i said my daily activities included nothing strenuous or physically challenging, so why am i so sore, and where are these bruises coming from?

That same kid, who i think was about 6 or 7, hung around our area the whole time. We offer candy for kids who win the sponge toss, and this boy would stand in line, get his candy, take it to where i was sitting (because i promised to watch over it), and then ask me for another drawing in facepaint. And then do it all again.
By the time his mom intervened, he’d run out of room on his body...

Annual picnic
that i volunteer at went well. It’s for the Hibernians, so it’s a bunch of fair-haired white dudes drinkin’ beers and wearing “IRELAND” shirts. But it’s fun. We do the children’s activities, like coloring, water games, and nail and face painting. I mean, it’s supposed to be the entire GirlScout troop volunteering (yes, i’m a GirlScout), but...

Watching Resident Evil: I with my sister.
This is one of her favorite movie arcs. I’ve seen it before, but i do not remember the actual plot beyond girl kills things with guns, wears no bra ever.
It does not help that i am not listening at all right now, while the group leader is explaining “the Hive” and what it does or whatever.
I keep asking annoying questions. “So there’s no fire? Then why’s it...

Leaving now for the “trial run.” I don’t know how long dog-lady wants me over there. How long is a mock-meeting supposed to take? I hope not long, because i am hungry as shit and i’m planning on grabbing BurgerKing after i leave her house.

Prepare for more dog-spam
because i got a job babysitting three doggies tomorrow.
I went over there an hour ago so that the owner would be satisfied that they wouldn’t be terrified of me (these dogs are pretty neurotic), but the (re-)introduction went well: they lurve me, which means i’ma get paid to watch them tomorrow, yes!! score!
(Not that i wouldn’t have gotten the job anyway, really, because the...
