elvendolli am sleepy...
but, for the first time in weeks, when i first opened my eyes, i saw lgith out (and was surprised by it!)
...it has just been that long since i'd slept through a whole night rather then waking up sometimes even multiple times a night & having problems falling back asleep (more often then not caused by anxiety)
and even though i am still tired, i feel a lot more rested then i have in a while...
now if only i could have had a decent breakfast...
somehow the boys drank more coffee then usual this morning and i got left with less then half a cup... which isn't a tragedy - usually i just make some tea when that happens... but we're out of bread and someone finished off my cereal, too, so i had to stuff down a nutri-grain bar and hope that keeps me.
i was planning on doing shopping today anyways, so this is more like random bitching then actual complaining - its just morning...
called both the recruiting places today.
both said they'll call back with interview information, so i'm kinda waiting on that.
as nothing is scheduled yet i prolly won't have any for today, so i just gotta somehow pull my head outta my ass and get cracking on the chores... i need to do shopping, dishes, get my stuff off the couch, get laundry started and in between there run some errands with c.
just need to wake up... somehow snap my brain out of this lull its in every morning...
(and the tea is close to boiling.. hopefully this won't be too far off)
talked to my mom this morning.
she sounded really drained, said it was PMS, reminded me it was yana's bday...
didn't mention the election at all...
it was odd, usually we talk for a while...
and yeah, the whole election thing is icky.
i try to remember going to the ballots with my paternal grandmother in russia. they took me so i felt like there was something going on... even though it was public knowledge that all elections were rigged.
there was an odd smell to the voting place, too... its like right there, at the tip of my memory, but not close enough to fully remember it...
but anyways, i digress... i keep thinking back to there, at the horrible laws and policies there... because i find this a bit on the nauseating side.
yeah, alaska was voting to legalize marijuana, thats cool... but voting to "prohibit same sex marriage" or "prohibit gay education"?! just the phrasing turns my stomach!
and then of course there is the "no discrimination against gays" in maine (of all places!) that got a 51% no!
*shudder*
and damnit, i just don't want bush to win!!
so yeah, thats today thus far in a nutshell
