Sep. 12th, 2002 10:37 amits starting.... i woke up at around 5am, freezing. the down blanket was by the foot of the bed, and i pulled it up over my comforter... i don't want fall to start : (
i could barely keep my eyes 1/4 open on the way into work. it really does surprise me that i'm able to make it in here without incident...
spent last night cleaning my room, doing laundry and watching mists of avalon with him. my room is now cleaner that i ever remember it being. but, on some levels, its just as frustrating as when its dirty, because it just isn't set up right. there are so many things that just don't have homes. and i have the hardest time throwing things out.
i think the next step is to put my old notebooks and folders into a box and keep that under my bed, which will free up space in the cabinet part of my dresser.
i also really need to go through the pile of 'needs to be altered, dyed or dry cleaned' clothes. the fact that they've sat where they are, for over a year, untouched, should tell me something, but i just don't have the guts to take them and trash them. and the same goes for my poofy gowns. they're in horrible shape. i haven't worn any one of them in close to two years. but, i can't bring myself to trash them. *sigh*
i also managed to accumulate a bunch of girly stuff - makeup that doesn't belong in the mobility-friendly makeup bag, hair stuffs, horns, etc, and no place for any of it. i guess i need to make a girly corner of the room, or something... and take a closer look at my finances and see if i can afford to offer someone $$ to play decorator for me...
and gah, do my finances suck right now. between school, bills, the trip to quebec city, gas & tolls, i totally blew past what i should be spending. in theory, it should be looking up. after i buy my books for the online class, i won't have any more school expenses till its time to register for spring classes. the bills should plateau out due to the arrangement with him, but, i also have the costa rica trip coming up. the problem is that none of the stuff is anything i wasn't planning on spending money on. and of course, as far as the frivilosity of expenses, eating out is first on the list. and i know i need to be more strict about only doing so once per workweek & once per weekend, but i really don't want to cut back beyond that.
speaking of to do lists, i've really been slacking on mine. i need to get in touch with school and make sure the online class was approved, buy the goddamn books and start on the coursework, i also need to make calls to deal with stupid financial stuff, pay parking/speeding tickets, get an oil change and new tires for my car, and work on not falling behind on this kind of stuff.
of course the to-do list for tonight is completely different. more like cleaning out the car, cleaning out the cooler, doing a bunch more laundry, going to the supermarket for camping stuffs and making over a dozen sandwiches. in theory, i planned to clean out my car yesterday, but the weather was just not cooperating.
and have i mentioned yet that i'm looking forward to this weekend? aside from mild worries about the weather, i'm ready to jump out of my skin over it. yay camping. yay being in the sunlight in my summer dress. yay sleeping and yay staying up late around a campfire. and yay for his birthday, it makes me really happy that we're still close, and that i can be happy for him, for stuff going on in his life now and for his birthday : )
