no words

Rain, rain go away.

It's been raining constantly since I woke up hours ago. My sister is still home and is not going to school today.

I haven't spoken to X today. 

I think I'm getting hungry again. Gah. I don't feel like doing anything. Even make lunch. :-/

Oh, so yes. I finished The Carlyles. It's pretty intoxicating once you get into it. I think the characters are hot, fresh and slightly original. The way they intertwined the characters without the others knowing about them was pretty awesome. You'll see once you read it, L. I still say my favorite triplet is Baby. 

Anyways, I'm super bored now that I've finished that book. I could begin a new book, but I'm still reading two other books that I haven't finished yet. Lullaby and The Sun Also Rises. 

Maybe I should give X a call.

a short blog

A few things have changed in the past few hours. 

M didn't go to work today, and the people at Ruby Tuesday are apparently angry with her. She is sick, but she was my reference and if they're angry with her, what are they going to do about me? Not hire me? Then it is definitely back to square one. 

In other news, I finished two books today. Lets see what else I can finish before I go to the library tomorrow. If I even make it to the library tomorrow. Who knows what I'll end up doing. Laying out better be one of those things, I'm telling you right now. I need to sweat out this anger I have for trying to find a job. 

Right now, the only books I have started reading are Lullaby and The Sun Also Rises. I can't decide which one I should read next tonight. Maybe I'll start a new one. Anna Karenina? Madame Bovary? 

I wish Buster didn't have any fleas.

insomnia is very exhausting

I'm not sure what is wrong with me, but I'm having a very hard time going to sleep.

It's like this sometimes if I don't take any Tylenol PM. Maybe it's the idea that I haven't taken the medicine and it's got me all worked up or something, but if I can't sleep... I get frustrated.

There really isn't much to do at 3 in the morning anyway. Why would anyone want to be awake at this time of the night? Especially on a Thursday. Ugh. I don't know how I'm going to get myself to sleep tonight. I've almost completely finished Lullaby, and I just started on the first chapter like, at 10 or so tonight. Ugh. Again. 

It's terribly tragic. My thought process when I can't sleep. Currently, I guess it's been so hot outside that I'm sweating more than usual. I guess that's making my hair get dirtier easier. I don't know, but it feels like I have to wash my hair every other day. I took a shower yesterday. A person doesn't have to bathe everyday for their hair to be clean for two days. At least it used to be different for me. When I had longer hair, it was like... I could go two or three days without washing my hair, but still bathing nonetheless. I'm not gross. I just can't stop thinking about my dirty hair. 

I wish I had something that would help me fall asleep. Anything. 

Maybe I'm too afraid to go to sleep after reading Lullaby, since it's about a culling song that makes the person you read it too fall asleep and never wake up again. I kid. I'm not worried about that....

There are birds singing outside my window. Or is that the fan? I swear I heard birds earlier though. Yes, definitely birds. 

Buster is being very beautiful, but he always is. I was scratching his hind leg and he started to kick. It was cute. He's more sensitive to being scratched when he's sleepy, I suppose. I don't know if I mentioned he went to the vet the other day and had some shots that were slightly over due. He was a bit crazy at the vet, but whatever meds they shot him up with made him sleepy. So he kind of slept for a long time in my bed. 

I can't think of anything interesting to say.

Happy 4/20!!!!!!1

Today is the day. A beautiful day it was. I went to the Crawfish Festival and I went to Books-a-Million and spent my gift card. It was also nice because when I went to buy a book (Invisible Monsters by Chuck Palahniuk), the woman said, "You have 25.07 left on your card." and I was taken by surprise because I thought it was only a 20 dollar gift card. So, I bought another book (Lullaby by Chuck Palahniuk). My Palahniuk collection is nearly complete. I need to get Diary back from whoever has it. And I don't own Rant yet. 

Ah, but I was hanging out with my friends T and her husband earlier and we were celebrating the holiday, and their smoke alarm starts to go off. T's husband goes into the house and discovers the kitchen is on fire. It was a terrible tragedy. Good thing their daughter wasn't there for the event, she would probably have cried a lot. I felt bad leaving them right after they put out the fire, but I had a ... curfew to attend to. I was late as it was already, but I thought fire was more important. T said she understood though, so it's all good.  

The Crawfish Festival was alright, I guess. I didn't ride any rides because I didn't have anyone to ride them with me. My sister had her own friend with her, and my parents claim they're too old to ride rides anymore, so it's useless to want to do it. But my dad wanted to go and see Eddie Money. I got to leave early though, so it was all good. I have to say, I did have some good food: a funnel cake, a blooming onion, and you can't go to a crawfish festival without having crawfish itself. It came with a potato and a corn on the cob. It was delicious. 

There was a ferris wheel and I was tempted to go on it, but I didn't want to spend any money doing all that. 

Anyway, I think I'm going to do some reading before I pass out or something.
