Dreamed

Dreamed about perfumes in a wicker cabinet, painted white, in my grandparents' house. Thought Mama wasn't there; she had been, just in the room taking a shower. Slept late and missed my new job. Had to call in absent. It had been a Thursday. I was unloading the dishwasher. There was ice cream for dessert.

m'yow-woo?

Shamash is begging Votania's closed door for breakfast. I don't think much will be forthcoming until she wakes up, dearie...

Yay!

I have risen up and slain DSOS; it hath yielded unto me a brace of copies of my school schedule. I also printed out the book list for the textbooks I still need because they were out earlier.

Happy computering 'Ni.

Breakfast

Ate breakfast with Darkside. Got to school before he did today. Stressed about the current situation to him. My instincts may have been right -- I seriously need to chill out about the situation before I try anything further. I will be suffering from the lack as well. Told Darkside this, with my hands around his neck. He did not volunteer to make up the difference. Just as well.

Darkside spent quite some time sitting next to me, reading as I was writing, and it was all good until Bald Guy called upon Darkside to explain GURPS to him, especially as it relates to VtM. Gamer-geek duty was invoked, and Darkside left me sitting by myself. I sulked minimally, then moved over to the gamergeek table where the Stray Atheist was sitting. Avoided conversation on both sides.

Mood swings, lately. One moment I'm happy; the next I'm not. What the hell is up with me? Darkside wanted to know if I was entirely OK. Well, no, not entirely. Close enough, though, I hope... I rested my hand near his arm and was just happy to be in his presence. He's so warm...

New Characters

Bambi: a fellow CIS major at DeVry in my class group, a cute redhead with braces and a bit of a superiority thing.

Panther: a fellow CIS major at DeVry, first tri, a Wiccan from Arkansas.

Research

Been thinking about the entire concept of magical signatures, and wondering what mine would have been like when I was multiple, if all of us had been Practicing.

Spare Time

There are things I really should be doing right now. I should be going up to the library, getting myself a book, coming back down to the cafeteria, getting some good old all-Italian-American pizza pie, and reading that book until time for English class.

Instead, I'm humming contentedly along on the computer, fueled by gods know what in the pseudo-chocolate breakfast shake, and the cookies I snagged that Darkside wasn't thrilled about the concept of eating. (I need to make pizza again. The real kind.)

I need to go to the bookstore and inquire as to whether they have my UML book in yet.

I need lunch.

Sith Academy

Did a search on the topic and added drglam, someone I recognize from the sa-talk mailing list. Hi, Darth Sian!

Luuuuunch.

Checked the bookstore. No soap. Went up to the library, and found myself a copy of Asimov's Second Foundation. Came downstairs, got pizza, ate pizza. Said hello to votania, who figured out that I had my schedule printed out, and obtained two copies of it, so that her boss may formulate scheduling. Waved hi to Dawn in the Career Center (she works there now) and came into the lab. Worked on and finished English homework.

Wondering where my blue Zip disk is. Has anyone seen it? It's got my name on it, but probably not my blood type or the exact details of my insanity.

Speaking of insanity, my other favorite Malkavian, gremliness has created eccentrics, for everyone who would fit in there. It's restricted posting, so send a petition to Her Highness that she might check out your journal and deem it literate enough to join, if you're interested.

Mmm. Greasy pizza with too little sauce and not enough topping. My favorite.

Trolls...

Got a delightful message on the guestbook for my website. Evidently I was visited by a troll. Hi, troll.

For the amusement of people who are amused by such things, I present Gerbilax The Troll!

( Lots of the F-word )

( And my response )

Now, to see if it's even a valid e-mail address...

Storm!

First a dust storm, with wind. Now, wind and rain. I danced out in the wind and dust, and then the wind and rain, for a time, absolutely delighted.

Water...

Storm's trailing off. Worked on my afghan for a while, then decided it was time for a shower. Now, soon, bed. Must sleep. Must remember to get Panther's e-mail address and phone number, in case there is hanging out to be done.

...

I don't know why, but somehow I'm wondering if Panther and I are going to wind up in bed together. Probably not too romantically, as he has a True Dear Beloved, and I've got someone bonded just about as close... but the spark might be there.

...I don't know.

I'm having generally uneasy feelings, and I'm not entirely sure why.
