I am uselessface

^^ That pretty much sums up my life right now. I'm more than halfway done my reading break, and NOT more than halfway done all the work I need to finish.

It's kind of depressing.

On the plus side, I just found my Salvador Dali mustache eraser, so maybe things will start looking up. Never underestimate the power of a great mustache.

...

But, then again, it's fighting against major presentations, quizzes, and 20 chapters of Latin, so I wonder if its wondrous mustache powers will prevail.

Only time will tell.

Freedom!! ...for a few days.

Huzzah! It's reading break! This means I don't have to be at school until next, next Monday. However, I still have enough schoolwork to kill a small herd of goats, so it's not the greatest situation in the world.

I'm really tired. That's been the running story for the past few weeks. My schedule kind of blows. And not at all in a good way (like bubbles!). No, no. I mean this fatigue blows hairy monkey balls.

You're welcome for that image.

....

That's all I've got tonight. Peace.

Ahhh... here it is.

Looks like school is finally starting to catch up with me. I have far, far too many things to do this month, so I'm not a happy hippo.

I'm usually a happy hippo. FYI.

Regardless of impending due dates, presentation dates, and midterms, I'm still here... still blithering on about useless stray thoughts that happen to wander across the tracks of my speeding train of thought.

Wow. That was brilliant.

Moving on, what else is new? The highlight of my day was when I detoured from my usual commute home and bought some pens.

Yippee.

Other than that... I feel like twelve different kinds of shit.

That about sums it all up. I'm getting a violent urge to knit now, so I'm going to go do that. Wheeee.

Scarf!

That's the news I have today--I've started to knit a scarf.

It's not even news... more like toxic fumes being released into the air.

Nevertheless, I'm releasing them, because I'm still avoiding my homework.

...

The scarf is pretty. It's soft and squishy, and it's a dark, charcoal grey. I'm trying to make one of those infinity scarves, but we'll see what happens. Last time I attempted to knit something other than a simple rectangular scarf, disaster ensued (*cough* failed attempt at hat).

Let's hope for the best.

The Rio - Epitomizing "Useless" since 2001

Today, I have absolutely nothing good to say. The only reason I've clicked on the "new post" button on this fine day is because I'm avoiding my homework like a whiny little middle schooler, and I wanted to give my fingers something to do.

Typing, people. My fingers are... oh, never mind.

As I sit here, and look around at my disgustingly cluttered (but homey!) room and desk, I again wonder why I'm not doing anything more productive than talking to myself via the Internet.

I don't know. Yay!

Oooh, look! Gum.

Time to go.

It can be done!

Look at me! I can get into this whole posting thing :)

So, here I am, at the end of yet another long and tiring week. Good news: it's the weekend. Bad news: I think I'm developing an aversion to coffee, and considering the amount of caffeine I need to merely stay alive, this can't possibly be good.

I guess there's more good news... I get to see my wifey tomorrow... (for those unfamiliar with the wifey situation, screw you all, she's my bestie for life and we're totally married and stuff)
We'll shop and giggle and snort and yay, because that is what we do.

What else is good... Ah! I happened upon a 1.1 kg bag of jellybeans today, which was a pleasant surprise, I guess... It helped me get through my later class, which is always nice... Not that I ate them all, or anything. That'd have to be a new low for me...

Yay! Ellipses!

This is quickly becoming pointless...

...

(ellipse!)

Would you look at this...

Here I am.
Posting
Again.

It's a miracle! :3

I don't have a tonne to say, either. I was just chilling, watching Zoboomafoo, and I opened my laptop to find my blog. My recently rediscovered blog. Ahh... It feels good to be talking to myself via the Interwebs again.

Digression: this episode of Zoboomafoo is fantastic. Kinkajous and koatis are unbelievably awesome.

Digression from my digression: Ginger (my little girl cat) has hopped up next to me and is purring rather loudly. I think she wants to sit on my lap. Conflict: my laptop is currently sitting on my lap.

Digression from the second digression, returning to the first digression: Zoboo just said he had a "beary" great day, and the episode was about bears. Oh man. This is fantastic.

I'm glad I decided to do this. Long story short, my schedule this semester is kind of crap, because on Tuesdays and Thursdays, I need to be at school at 8:30. With transit, however, I have to wake up at 5 in order to make it to school on time. After an hour or two of class, I just come home for a few hours, because my next class is at 4:30. This means twice the commuting, but I get to come home and kick back with my kittens for awhile. Yeah. It kind of sucks, but if I want to major in French, I need to get all my lower-division courses done this semester, so I can proceed unhindered into my upper-level courses in the fall.
Blah blah blah, school technicalities. Terribly interesting, I know.

Oh man, Ultimate Cake Off is on, and just listening to these bakers try and bad-mouth each other is hilarious. They can't do it. So funny.

Digression back to the second digression: Ginger has now taken over half of my lap, while my laptop occupies the other half.  A worthy concession.

Back to reality: not much more is happening. I need to head back to school in about 40 minutes, and I'm trying to warm up a bit before venturing back out into the frigid cold.

I guess I'll leave off here, as I never really started saying anything interesting at all.
