elvendollits the start of what will be a short(er) week for me, and i am so not awake.
i slept oddly last night - turned 90 degrees on the bed, and was oddly conscious of it - i had really active dreams, but only remember brief (visual) scenes, and barely any of the plot(s). also woke up at around 6am, realized that its monday and panicked that i'd overslept out of not realizing that its monday - then i looked over at the alarm clock and realized that its way early & that the alarm is set.
the thing is, i do this all the time - wake up too early, feeling rather awake. but, instead of getting up and getting a head start on the day, i go back to sleep, and by the time the alarm starts ringing, i can barely force myself to roll out of bed (i also have this nice little theory of having developed a pavlovian response to the sound of the alarm clock).
so yeah, i'm barely keeping me eyes open : /
on a good note, i'm incredibly excited to see![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
kittypie so soon! i've spent the past week or so tossing around ideas for what we could do, though i so wish there were more daytime hours we could spend together. so far on my list of stuff is going to the MFA (gotta check which day(s) they're open late), a laser light show, a trip to nantasket, maybe an outing to the club, maybe checking out the local slam, a bunch of walking around, and a trip to purgatory falls. *bounce*
and i'm excited for the weekend, too. i've been waiting for it for so long, i can't comprehend that its this close.
i'm a little nervous that i haven't formed concrete plans for the weekend itself... a little anxious that maybe kira & ryan won't fall in love with just wandering around the city as i have - but, thats all very underneath the excitement.
on a more somber note,tobi and i said our goodbyes last night. she's not going away for too long (and she'll have an amazing time on her trip), but the idea of three months without her being a (free) phonecall or a short drive away is very hard to be able to see. and hey - if i go totally insane this summer & she's not there to thwap me back into place, its not my fault, right?
*shudder*
walking towards my car after saying goodbye was one of those moments - when you that you've just experienced something thats going to be one of the big memories life is made of - moments that are frozen in time...
*switching thought patterns*
on another (less emotional) note, my class starts next week.
i haven't given it much thought at all - way too many other things in my life have been occupying my head, and because this is a class with my favorite professor, i am rather not nervous at all. which is good. because i plan to do good : )
and *grumbles* i've been really bad about posting lately.
lets see - this weekend:
friday night i ended up hanging out with her and her J for a while - we went to the arsenal mall, and found the most ghetto contempo i have ever seen - pretty much everything in the store was on sale, inlcuding $3 gold pleather pants and $9 pleather and faux-fur coats. definately weird : )
i ended up getting home around 10ish, and opted to play on my computer instead of going to the club, and now have two car-mix cd's that just need to be burned - just in time, too, because my aggravation with my current cd's grows daily.
saturday i woke up much later then i expected to (although, i also stayed up on friday night much later then i expected to), had cereal for breakfast and started cleaning. by the timetobi came by, there was minor picking up & sweeping to be done, and the bathroom, which i never finished.
IMHO, the party was small & good. a huge amount of thanks to everyone who over-compensated for the booze problem (especially you!), and a thank you to everyone who attended - i am really happy that she enjoyed her sendoff : )
personally, i got nice & toasty, and had a rather enjoyable evening, even if i did take too many (blurry) pictures : ) (and yeah, now i gotta sit down & sort them all at some point. second though - hey jedi - where are your pics??); in a way, i was rather surprised at how early the gathering dissipated - hopefully, this is not a sign of us getting old, right? : )
sunday i woke up once, feeling very dehydrated, got up to have a cup of tea and went back to bed. eventually, got a call from tobi about brunch, and after a (mutually?) groggy goodbye to him, who crashed in the computer room, headed off...
after brunch, i ended up spending time in traffic with tobi as we did the last of her errands - i am really glad we got to spend more time together, but wish we were both less out of it for the time. and i have no seen the lamest excuse for a parade possible - hopefully, that is an experience that will not need to be relived ever again.
when i got home after dropping tobi off, i realized that i was hungry... and then, that i should really stop eating out... and then, that i was in an ok mood to cook - but didn't want to cook for myself. luckily, that was resolved rather quickly with a call to him, and i ended up making a tomato & cucumber salad (even if some weirdos don't like theirs with sour cream!) and pasta with veggies : ) and it was good to cook (even if i have to do a whole bunch of dishes tonight), good to spend time with spud & melinda, and good to have really yummy ice cream with them afterwards : )
and after ice cream, i watched six feet under, cleaned my room a bit while talking on the phone to her, and then went to say goodbye to tobi.
(yeah, i've run out of steam)
