It's Like That Now?

I am so tired. As susal, get up, open lab, finish Flas homework. I got fustrated with the "own my own" assignment. It made no sense, or I made no sense of it. I need to rest. that's why me poo brain ain't fuctioning. Other than that it's been pretty much straihgt forward of a day. listening to Toni Braxton this morning. She's ok. I love her music. That's cool.

The lab was empty for a while, but now there is one extra person here to do their work.

It was cold this morning. The past couple of days have been filled with fog in the morning and night. Today was just cold. I should of had a cup of coffie with me this moning. LOL. It was just so intense. Forgot to take my Claritn, and I know that was a big mistake. All I can say is that my sinuses are a bear to deal this. I need to get back into that game. I could place the box in my book bag.

Hopefully when I got to the library, all things will be calm and smooth. We're having a prblem with our students bringing guests to the desk. I asked them to excuse themselves before my supervisor gets involved. it went into one ear, and out the other. It's up to them, wheter they want things the easy way, or the hard way.

When i get home, I'm grabbing a bite to eat, then I'm taking a nap. Then it's to the library.

Up To my Eyeballs in Homework

Brought my laptop to class today, so I could finish my homework during my break. To my surprise, none of the outlets would accept my adapter. While working on my homework, my batteries died. I was so shocked. I was desperate, but had to wait to find a decent outlet. That pissed me off. I charged my batteries when I got home. Took a 30 min nap, and got up for work. Ate a cheeseburger in the car. It had too much mustard and ketchup on it. Waited in the lot for about 30 mins (so the meter maid wouldn't give me a freaking ticket (I was told as long as you're in your car, the college doesn't consider you "parked" and the lot isn't free 'til 4:00 PM. Get there early, or get no free parking)

Got to chapter 11 in my Flash book. "ActionScript Basics and Behaviors" is a LONG chapter. It's also pain staking. I have went through a couple of exercises at least twice. I still got a lot to finish. it's getting to an obnoxious state right now. I'll finish the last parts of the chapter tomorrow. I'm tired. This is rough.

Work has been insane. Last night, a couple was having sex in the basement bathrooms. The cleaning lady found them moaning and groaning. She thought the girl was having a rough bowel movement, until she realized there were two people in the damn stall. She said she was done cleaining for the night. I don't blame her. Not what I'd want to walk into. When i saw her this evening, i told her if she felt uncomfortable, she can call Public Saftey. She agreed she'll do that if the occasion happens again. Those bathrooms are insanely nasty. How could they do it in there. Differnt strokes for different folks (literally).

Today and yesterday, the rocks and minerals have been popular items of late. The supplies were limited, so we ran out quickly. One girl asked me, "what was she supposed to do" when i told her the supplies were out. I was like she should know better. have a test, come a week earlier, 'cause the supply can't meet demand. it happens every semester. People are looking at me like I'm supposed to supply them with all they need. The geology dept needs to give us more samples to give to students. This place is insane. It's been noisy as hell this week. I don't like that. I can't concerntrate like I need to. It just becomes sad, and unworthy.

Got some ideas for a new story, in my desire to write. It's on the back burner 'till I get some of work out of the way. Ahh, to be creative, and one being. I need to go to bed soon.

Oh, I talked to the grad school of my choice today. They're liking my GPA. i'm so pleased. I feel good tonight.

Be well.

It's a crazy day. I want to go home.

Walked into work all things were fine, until I missed an e-mail requesting a few things get done. D'oh. Did them, just later than usual. it rained for a few moments, complete with booming thunder. What?

Students holding fome politcal rally, complete with LOUD music and whoops. It looked like a frat party for about five minutes. God, I know this'll look bad.

Lousy other dept tried to steal an account away from us. It was a lowbrow plan. A weak plan. It didn't work. I'll fill that in later.

Got an override for a class I wanted. I'm about to write the professor back. I needed to write down some of the day, since chaos has found me. That sucks royaly.

Last night watch "Return of the Jedi" on DVD. The added effects/scenes weren't terrible, but I prefered the older version. Darth Vader is still the coolest villain around. LOL

Tonight I'm relaxing, and tomorrow moring I will finish the last components of my Flash homework. I hear chapter 11 is a bear to complete. It may take me two whole days. Awww man.

I'm still here

I had a restfull week-end that started with Friday. I was tired. Bone tired. I need a week worth of vacation time. I just don't have the energy proper. I'm pleased I'm not at my limits in od'ing things, but damn. I may have to find a way to get some sleep in.

Yesterday was my birthday. I just layed low. I love b-days, but like I said, I'm pooped. I did want to buy a new DVD this week-end, but I paid most of my bills. All the money seemed to come directly from my account like last night. LOL. One account has $23.00, and I'm sure my Earthlink account will take all but two of those dollars. The other account, I'm waiting for them to cash that check, so I'm not touching to much of that, although I should have $60.00 to spend as I please.

I filled my tank, and that cost me $20.00. Man that's heavy.

I have no idea what's for dinner, but I know I have to do something. Decisions, decisions.

Rolled Outta Bed This Morning

I was so tired. i couldn't get up. I rolled out of bed, fed my cat, freshened up, and came to open the computer lab. Man, I got to get some rest this week, 'for I fall out from exaustion. Maybe I'll sleep this week-end extra long. LOL

Havre to create an animated poem, so that's gonna be in my head for a while. I need to get that ball rolling so I can turn in a decent project. I'm enjoying the Flash class immensely. I think it's great. I hope to learn more and more.

Adventures in Homework

Spent some time getting the assignments for my Flash class done. Earlier, I was so sleepy, it was ridiculous. I really felt like I was going to fall alseep. I got a latte, which woked some. Sinuses acted up agin. I hate that, but sometimes you gotta go through the ish.

I hope to go tobed when I get home. Last night I stayed up longer than I should have. I feel good tonight, so I can at least be happy. Saved a dollar. This is funny, but I didn't know I had it. I pout it in the pocket of a shirt I just pulled out of closet. It's been there since spring. LOL I thought that was cool.

Back into the game

Did my homework this morning. Had an open lab to work in, so there was no distraction. The weather's pretty awful, as it rains and rains. More fallout from TS Jeanne. I think she's a trpical storm, and no longer a hurricane. It makes the weather awful. I hate driving in bad weather. Too many accidents can happen. You know?

Went to ork, and found all the software stripped off of the computer. I'll have to ask if it is ok to put it back on, since I was working with Dreamweaver to make a webpage for our students. I'm supposing there is an e-mail for me today about this. if not I'll go to my supervisor and ask him directly.

Got a mandate today that my students need to stop having friends at the desk. I warned them to limit their time, and to police themselves. Now that I have gotten complaints, I have to enforce a policy. I'm not worried. I feel i was fair, and gave ample warning.

Told Mom I'd take her to Starbucks, since she wants to try their drinks. She tried some other place and complained about the taste of their coffee. Such is live.

Be well.

I Got Sick, and A Storm Arises

I suppose I could say my cat ate my posts, but that didn't sound right either. A few days ago, I got sinus problems bad. I took Tavis. Of course it make me sleepy, and weak. I felt awful. I had no strenght. I went home, and slept. Felt slightly better the next day.

Worked on my portfolio this week-end. Got a lot of the spelling errors out. I'm proud of that. LOL. There were so many. I'm pleased with that.

Need to e-mail a couple of friends to see how they're doing. I don't want to be a tardy friend.

I feel a chage going on. I can't define it proper, but I know something's on the horizon for me. Call it instinct, but I'm feeling it.

Look Busy Everyone

Sinus attacks me, leaving in a stae of pain, as my face is lit with lotsa pain. Re-wrote a short story to keep myself awake last night. Tonight is homework night. All I have to do is prepare a logo to be animated, which meas design it tonight.

Tried the Vanilla Bean Today-Not Bad

Today is an ok day. Outside feels great. It's the right amont of sun and cool. Breezes are wonderful. Not a trace of Charleston's legendary humidity in sight. I hope I'm not jinxing it, but it's sooooo good. I almost want to work outside. LOL That's not possible today. Met a friend who was sick. That sucks, on a loveley day, no less. She will get better. Another friend keeps sending me chail letters, via e-mail. I hate chain letters, and will have to ask her to stop it, unless I block her from my account, which I don't want to do she's a good friend. Reson should prevail.

E-mailed another friend, to keep in contact with her. Worry a little too much about this one. I suppose that's what friends do, want to know how well each other are doing. It's one of those deals. She'll be fine.

Was supposed to do HW now, but I hate starting up sometimes, esecially when I know I can do this tonight, and tomorrow moring, as I have a lot of free computer time. I'd like to hang and chill for a while, and tonight, get down to business.

Added some songs to my library. These came from my cd collection, to my iTunes, so now I can listen to a lot of song s without having to changes the cd's out, over and over. I tell ya, I'm getting plenty of mileage out of my laptop. It's a good thing too.

Song of The Day: "Deeper and Deeper" by Madonna. Why: It's one of the may songs in my library, and it's the one that grabbed my ears. I wanna hear it again.

Blah Day

I did mmy ususal: Computer lab, and cleaned the bathroom. It needed some cleaing. Nothing's better that a clean bathroom, next to a clean kitchen. I need to clean my room now. LOL Gotta go rest my nerves.

I Am an Imaginary Man

Yesterday my ex-coworkers told everyone at the party that only her REAL friends showed up, so the rest don't matter. I suppose she was trying to invalidate Circ staff's existance. Perhaps it's necessary, as she enters a new chapter of her life. She's so full of shit. LOL I had to mention that. I suppose I don't exisit, so I'm a figment of my own imagination. LOL Whatever the case may be, hopefully this will be the last adventure about her.

Work was ok after that. I did a lot of processing, and corrected some other processing too. Got a java chip from Starbucks. I got the biggest one, which I should not have, sinc eht edamn thing was nearly too much. Ordered general Tso's chicked from chineses resturant for lunch. At the egroll, some of the chicken and rice. Will eat the rest today.

Have a strong feeling that I will be very succesfull at graduate school. I have a strong feeling all around. I feel blessed to be in this moment, and I am grateful for my good fortune.

Paid a Visit By Those Who Reside In Loserland

As if I don't have enough on my plate, I'm tired, want some caffine, and don't feel like dealing with other people. here comes my co-worker's "retirment" party. She isn't going anywhere, mind you. Her status is changing from full-time to part time. I'm hearing her talk about the Lord in her life has made things good, and her paving the way for other people at the college. If she were being sentimental, I'd chalk it up to a good thing. Too melodramtic, but good. However, what she says is in complete contrast to her actions and personality.

The co-worker is one of the most rudest, inconsiderate, digusting person I have ever worked with. Not ony did she abuse her co-workers, and her authority, she had no respect for anyone. She belched and farted in front of people, anytime she liked. She used the students as personal sevrants, and no one in the administration seemed to care, or notice. Now everyone is supposed to be happy because she's retiring? She's not going anywhere she'll be working on the week-ends. Oh, God, I'm gonna have to see her nasty ass on the week-ends? That's not cool with me. I have business to conduct, not to hear her fart and belch. As this trail blaser she claimed to be, she set many people back, by lying, cheating, putting her shit on others. I don't think that anyone needs to pretend they're something they are not. Well damn, ain't she a regular Harriet Tubman for all her hard work and dedication.

One the good note, I won't be able to make her party, and hear her acceptance speech for her Academy Award for best "Asshole in the Postion of Authority."

Hello, It's another workday

Went to work, no biggie. It was all blah, and blah. The ususal. The public saftey officer appears to have a cold. I'm not to much of a germphobe, but I don't want a nasty cold.

Today must be game day. Everyone wanted validation stickers. One person wanted the sticker, but had no card. Damn! What was I to validate. I guess logic fails when one is in the middle of a single-minded goal.

No class today, but I turned in my homework electronicly. Man, sometime its crazy to do all that work, espically since I was loafing when I did it. I could have finished earlier. I do have a weekend project to finish, so it's gonna be busy this week-end.

Worked on my portfolio, only to find out that some of my files were corrupted. Talk about pissed!!!!!! When I get free time, I have to check my laptop, to see if I have a copy of the files that got screwed up.

Tomorrow is my class day. The class is a little dry at the beginning, 'cause I'm taking baby steps. I'm passing the class, so I better not complain too much. Things have a way of changing on you unexpectedly.

No Latte's in The Immidate Future, as I am Broke.

No doubt about it, I can't budget to save my soul. I'm not crazy about that, seeing how I really want to save some money for my future. here is my goal until the end of the year. To say $25.00 from each paycheck. This is "no touch" money. I'll have to do this in order to have something for myself. The money will be used for my future graduate expenses, which will skyrocket one I start grad school. LOL I'm praying on this one, cause this is for my future, and I do want to succed at saving something, even if it's not that big of an amount, but the ened of the year.

Got a great dose of office politics to last 'till then end of the semester. As one retiree wants a party, the fact remains that she's not leaving. She's changing her status. All the years I've known her, she's not been the nicest person. She's been rude, dissrespctful, and digusting many of times. For the sake of not having to fight with her, people ignored her, but the admin want people to act like this is one happy occasion. Some people aren't feeling that, and have outright said they ain't pretending anymore, which I can respect. This has the potential to get ugly, because the admin acts like they don't know a thing about the hostility, and want to wax over things. We'll have to see.

Heard from a couple of friends I haven't seen in a long while, which is great. I love catching up. One friend, I sent an e-mail to, on the lark. Lo and behold, he responded. Good to hear from peeps, even if they are on the other side of the US. LOL. E-mail shortens the distance.

Worked more on my portfolio. I needed to get things done, so I managed to make some real corrections to the web pages. Designed, and printed out a cd booklett for the portfolio. I'm also using it as a portfolio piece, since it was a hot design. I promised myself three pages of a short story, so I'm off to do that. Tomorrow is homework day, so I better get cracking. LOL

Peace All,

Running my mouth

Met an old student who is doing quit successful. I'm very proud of her. She's in a master's program, so I know she's doing some hard work.

I'll be doing grad school soon, so I look forward to the challenge. Graphic Design will be all the challenge I need. LOL

Other than that, I'm playing catch up. I need to go process some things, which I may do later this night.

No More Latte's (At Least Not When I Get Up Early)

Hi all,

Drank a Vanallia Latte (grande), and it kept me up all night. That's not what I need, when I have to get up early. I'm so sorry I did that. I was wide open, LOL I also got up an hour earlier than I needed to. I'm just a bundle of energy. I've banned the Latte's from any day that I have to awaken, like early. I, however, will not say "no" to the Java Chip. it's good, and doesn't keep me awake.

Today I have a quiz to take. I should do fine. Did all my homework last night, so I don't have to panic about things being in on time. LOL. I'm such a worrier, for nothing. I do the work. The beginning of the semester always has a slow climb to comfort.

What I'm Listening To: "Naughty Girl" by Beyonce. Every now and then, it's good to hear the song.

Life is Good

Hello all,

Last night I suffered a nasty migrane that spoiled my otherwise good day. I went to work, with no hitch, and then outta nowhere this migrane blasts me. At work there was no asprin or motrin to be found, so I had to wait. Once I got home, I thought I could sleep it off. I was wrong. I took some asprin, and eventually the pain went away.

I slept late today, and tomorrow I have classes, so what fun I had is done. It rained so bad today that it made me nervous to drive. It was one of those days where I wished I waited out the storm. I hate driving in poor conditions.

Craving Things

Desire's but a word some use to hold onto the intangible.
What is real these days?
Is it the money, we need to survive?
Perhaps the passion I feel when I fell in love?
When my world crumbled, and no day seemed worth my time.
No repairs to my heart or home was worth the tears that stained my cheeks,
and proved that love was a lie.
How can I hold onto, what has eluded me?
Mystified me?
Made a fool of me for believing?
And not wanting to be alone.

Last Night Was a Java Chip Night

Hello there. Opened the lab with no muss or fuss about anything. I need to start bringing my cd player, so I can listen to some music, since the comps in here don't have music features. Finished my Flash homework last night. Got some basic stuff done, and came up with some cool designs. I'll have to use those a little later somewhere.

I have to give props to the Circ staff at work, since no one else wants to. We're working hard, and we've come across some very irrational thoughts of late by the mnagement. I won't bang my head against the wall, but when a staff supports each other, we get the best support.

A good friend got me a night light for my bedroom. Intitally the batteries wernt so good in them, but once I put the Duracell in them, the damn thing nearly lit the whole room. It was perfect. Of course, I tried to sleep, but the java chip (venti-sized) kept me stoked up to this moring. I don't know how many hors of sleep I got. i'm wide eyed today though.

I am please I sent off my application to graduate school. Although it will take time, like 5 months for me to complete the rest of my work, I say things are looking great. I feel great about this venture. It will be fruitful.

Peace
