life for rent

Tonight was the last class for my social history course. We ended it at the Wave, which was really nice since I got to sit and chat casually with my classmates. And there was free beer. It is just one more week until I am finished my exams. I can't wait for the freedom, I have lots of Christmas shopping to do and some visiting... Hali here I come!
In other news, the plebiscite was defeated. I don't know much about politics, but it felt good to exercise my right as a citizen and give my opinion. At least I am exercising something, haha. Maybe that will be another thing I will have to do with my time off, go to the gym. I know I could use it, especially with the holiday season fast approaching and all the good food and candy I know I will consume.

all these things that i've done

I have strep throat. Because of this I also have TWO cold sores on my mouth. I have not been getting proper sleep all week and have missed all of my classes at school. My window leaked all day yesterday because my landlord forgot to put caulking on the window before we moved in. I just ate and I am already hungry again. I got up from the couch and pierced my big toe on a staple. When I went to put on my pants today, a small spider was on the cuff and I freaked, when I tried to pick it up and put it in the toilet I bumped my head on the door frame. Could it get any worse? It seems like it could be Friday the 13th or something.
But it's not. It is Rememberance Day. I am one lucky girl, and I will remember that.

human touch

It's 3:42 in the morning and I couldn't sleep, so I got up and turned on the tv. Man, in his day Bruce Springsteen had it going on with those tight pants but it's his smooth, dreamy voice that is really a big turn-on.

I have strep throat. I have never had it before and hope to never get it again. I heard a couple of days ago that my cousin had it and it was really bad, but I haven't seen him lately. Curious. It is such a paradox to be sick. I hate being vulnerable and yet it is the one time I can yearn for comfort and people react with such kindness without question. Thank you for that.
