sometimes, i wonder what would happen if i were to make an appointment at my aunt's salon. i'd also wonder about scheduling a massage with my father, but, luckily or not, the article about where he works isn't there anymore and i never saved the text.

overall, the world is a bit fuzzy for me today. i went to bed about a half hour past my bedtime, but my gut feeling says this isn't sleep dep but some other weirdness. hopefully it'll pass soon, because i'd really like to be myself again.

last night was spent on the go. first, a company outing for appetizers and beer. then, stopping by the maul, because i realized that if i got home and sat down, i wouldn't get back up. then, meeting up with kittypie's mom's coworker. which was cool enough, and not nearly as uncomfortable as i was expecting. only he told me my russian is good enough to travel to moscow without worry, which, imho, is far fetched enough not to be trusted. then, i got home and autumnsshadow carried up what we thought was goat's present - only it was a tease, as i was sent the wrong box, and now need to figure out how to get it shipped back to them.

today doesn't feel like a friday, and though i should be excited about the weekend, i think schoolstress is really eating away at me. and the worst of it is that i know that i just need to push myself over the hump and get started, and then i'll feel better, and feeling weak for not having gotten there yet isn't making anything better.

3 cups of tea later, and the world is still fuzzy. and i'm totally missing the tall boy today. sol3 said something that triggered memories, and today, there's more longing then giddyness to them being so there.
with all luck, this is just due to my general state at the moment - the fact that missing him is typically a happy feeling is one of the really nice things about us.
not counting bm, this was the shortest amount of time we've spent around each other, and it was more emotionally charged by several orders of magnitude. and boiling it down to "group cohesiveness is strengthened by intensity of shared experiences" isn't helping at the moment.

time for more tea, and possibly some france-research.

five years ago today i was antsy at the 'rents' house, not looking forward to classes and had a dream that partially came true.

four years ago today i was in jersey as well, feeling lonely/cranky/SAD'd, and talking about family stuff and expectations.

three years ago today i was cranky, contemplative, and wrote a long journal entry about arisia weekend. i also wrote the journal entry that sparked sol3 and i getting together *schmoop!*

two years ago today i was pms'y, stressed over a presentation for class, and made a good things/bad things list.

one year ago today i wasn't dealing well.

huh, i think i see a pattern.

where's the meme?

...since there isn't a meme going around today, i'm going to pose these questions:

have you been to france?

have you been to paris?

if so, what would you recommend seeing? where would you recommend eating? what should definitely be done and what should be avoided?

(ftr, sol3 and i will be in paris for 3 days and are looking at bordeaux (and kaligrrrl!!!) for the other 3)
