Too much to do...
I've started to update this about six times since the last entry...but one of two things always happens: 1. I get distracted and ended up starting some other project. 2. Or that fuckin' error message about my cookies being disabled pops up...and I'm usually too lazy to fix it...so I get distracted and start another project.
But here I am tonight...I got the error message...and actually fixed it, just so I could put off working on my care plan a little longer. Brilliant idea really, since I have that and two exams to study for. I wouldn't really call this laziness, but I really really don't feel good. Aside from the fact that I haven't been sleeping well, my tummy is still really screwed up. :( So I figure I can cut myself a little slack on the homework thing. . . plus God knows I won't be getting to sleep til the wee hours of this morning, so I have some time yet tonight to finish care planning.
Odd that it's already Saturday of fall break...and I'm just now actually getting to a point where I might start homework. That is not to say, however, that my break has been a waste...of course not. I have managed to accomplish/ponder/burn quite a few things. Here they are:
1. Let us begin with the burning. I thought that it would be a good idea to bake some cookies tonight. I thought it would be a sweet gesture to bring some cookies to the guys at work tomorrow. I thought I had it under control. I THOUGHT WRONG! Turns out that we still don't have an electric mixer (no big surprise really, since neither of us has bought one--maybe I thought one just might magically appear??) so the process of making dough was kind of a bitch. So after wrestling with that...the dough balls make it into the oven. In addition to the fact that our oven is possessed by the spawn of Satan...the temperature control is actually the Devil himself. I didnt' realize until far too late that Prince of Darkness was baking my cookies...and they all turned out burnt. It wasn't that I left them in too long or wasn't watching them or didn't just buy brand new pans...it was the fact that when using that devil-oven, one has no control over how hot or nothot it is. This resulted in a cookie disaster.
2. Accomplishment time: if I were to list these...it would be a dishearteningly brief list. So instead, I'll just tell you a little about my break. I had coffee with an old friend from home Wednesday night. Anytime this friend calls to get together...I have to be on high guard. I know what he's after and it's almost a fun game we play when we get together now. I would probably cancel my subscription to that friendship altogether if it weren't for the simple fact that I enjoy his company...even if he is a perv. Ah well though...nonetheless I won...and he went home without accomplishing his ultimate goal. :)
3. Actually that little tidbit leads me to the pondering. A lot of my conversation with the old friend revolved around my new relationship. Apparently the concept of faithfulness and fidelity is one which falls entirely upon deaf ears with this guy. But at the end of the night...I was actually almost surprised. Fidelity is not exactly my strong suit...I am damned impulsive and am almost always up for a quick fling. So this got me to thinking about how much I really really care about Chris. I've been going nuts without him here in Muncie these last few days. I almost hate the fact that I've gotten so attached...especially after I said I wasn't gonna let that happen after the whole Kevin thing...I spent a solid nine months running away from anything resembling a relationship. But, on the other hand...I love the fact that I care about him so much. Hardly a minute goes by that I'm not thinkin' about him (I'm not mushy very often...so just bear with me). . . and I haven't been able to get a good night's sleep since he left Wednesday. . . my bed just isn't as cozy without him in it.
Ok ok...I'll stop there. That was a really long post...and kudos to you if you made it all the way through my rambling to this point.
Leave some love (but let's do it without the breakfast foods this time guys).

I'll try and leave out the food entirely.
I bequeath to you one acre of love given to me by the King of Sweden since I'll probably never use it.
