i have some time at home to myself, for once, in a long time. you forget how nice it is to be alone, sometimes. plus, this weekend has been non-stop. i have so many little things to do, and they all seem to be put off for other little things. i went to the movies and to chuch with my mom yesterday. she really appreciated it. actually sent me an email telling me how much she enjoyed it. things with her are good, except when things with her and my dad arent. my dads been all stressed out about this certification test that he has to take friday. hes been studying for 2 weeks now. its really weird to see your dad studying... laboring over a graphing calculator... mired in handouts with highlighting marks and staples. kind of surreal. i tried to comprehend some of the math that he was doing... and i probably could have, had the terminology been in english. that seems to be the biggest problem for him- translating the language, then the math is easy. anyway. dave is coming to dinner tonight, which should be interesting, but good. my parents are both in good moods today, so yeah. and then, dave, has to go back tommorow. i dont want to talk about that.
the art is tedious. ive put off the drawings. to tell you the truth. i hate drawing. ok, i love to create art, but drawing is my least favorite path. i can do it, yes, but i just hate it. its just so much easier to be creative with something other than a pencil, if you ask me. wait, thats stupid. its so much easier to be creative when you dont have parameters or requirements or deadlines.
hell.
as i jsut told katie, i want to change my name to donna. "you drove up without your headlights on. i met you halfway across the lawn, and then you made me a rootbeer float, but we finished it before you took off your coat. baby youve got the right attitude. YOU KNOW THAT JUNK FOOD ALWAYS GETS ME IN THE MOOD!... for a midnight snack. tell that girl of yours that youll be right back, cause i want a little piece of you with my MIDNIGHT SNACK." my god, thats hilarious. maybe ill just change my screenname to donna... shit, i need a life.
thats all for now. take care.
