My mama was a nurse, so i much prefer to be doted upon when sick. I HATE being left alone when ill, it's the worst feeling ever. That being said... since i live alone & have no family around (or friends that care) to dote on me while ill, I usually go into work and trudge through it. Case in point, I went into work for about 4 days with a 103+ fever... but then i had to be hospitalised... so I guess, not the smartest way of handling it.

Incidentally, I kind of have fond memories of being home sick as child. Mostly of afghan blankets, laying on the couch and watching Ren & Stimpy all day, while my mama took care of me. The only negative thing from childhood illness to effect me to this very day is my complete aversion to Gatorade (especially fruit punch flavour)- to this day, it still tastes of childhood stomach illness :/

i suddenly find myself with a lot more free time on my hands.

this is horrible, i wish to cry and curse, but the apathy has already set in

I find it absolutely hilarious that Royal Caribbean felt it necessary to include the following on their list of prohibited items onboard:

martial arts equipment (flails, throwing stars, etc.)

Seriously, guys, how lame is that? I honestly thought I would be able to get some serious throwing stars practice in while at sea. My shurikens matched my itsy bitsy teeny weeny yellow polka dot bikini so well too. Sigh.

almost done with my paper- about one page to go. but while breaking i cam across this:

LOL! soooooooo great!



this is entirely possible...

insomnia. back.

Do you remember this from your childhood?

I certainly do. Every Thanksgiving they ran this special... and it does seem somewhat hypocritical when the creators of the smurfs or TMNT came up with their concepts, they had to be tripping balls.

This made me laugh. Hard.

"Prayers For Rain"

you shatter me your grip on me a hold on me
so dull it kills you stifle me infectious sense of
hopelessness and prayers for rain i suffocate i
breathe in dirt and nowhere shines but desolate
and drab the hours all spent on killing time
again all waiting for the rain

you fracture me your hands on me a touch so
plain so stale it kills you strangle me entangle
me in hopelessness and prayers for rain i
deteriorate i live in dirt and nowhere glows but
drearily and tired the hours all spent on killing
time again all waiting for the rain

Soooo yes, the world needs to know what subway Canada is doing:

Because i like sheepies and am procrastinating putting my life into so many boxes:

1) tell you why I friended you,
2) associate you with something - fandom, a song, a color, a photo, etc.,
3) tell you something I like about you,
4) tell you a memory I have of you,
5) ask something I've always wanted to know about you,
6) tell you my favorite user pic of yours,
7) in return, you must post this in your LJ

No offense to my New England friends but CHRIST is it cold in May (i used to Miami's 104 degree heat, notConnecticut's 46!) Also, i tend to forget, with my loving of Bashing Miami, how NOTHING is open after 10PM. What a bother.

So Miami, here is your long awaited apology- I am sorry for bitching about you all the time when you make life considerably easier.

New England, CT in particular, don't worry, I still love you, but you totally remind how ill equipped i am to the North. Pish. And i call myself Canadian... for shame!

In Connecticut.. Traveling exhausted me. phew.

My Personality

Neuroticism	97
Extraversion	41
Openness to Experience	84
Agreeableness	0
Conscientiousness	24

You do not feel nervous in social situations, and have a good impression of what others think of you, however you experience panic, confusion, and helplessness when under pressure or stress. People generally perceive you as distant and reserved, and you do not usually reach out to others. You like the security of tradition, but sometimes have a desire to bend the rules and challenge conventional thinking. You will help others if they are in need. If people ask for too much of your time you feel that they are imposing on you, however you are not adverse to confrontation and will sometimes even intimidate others to get your own way. You strive hard to achieve excellence. Your drive to be recognized as successful keeps you on track toward your lofty goals. You often have a strong sense of direction in life, but may sometimes be too single-minded and obsessed with your work.

I guess kinda true, though I bend rules a little more than adherring to tradition...

I'm sorry, Wendy, but I don't trust anything that bleeds for five days and doesn't die. ~Mr. Garrison, South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut


Yep, Mr. Garrison was right. My period has, as always, left me a sentimental wreck. I hate my Horrormones (i am copyrighting that one, folks). UGGGGGHHHH.
