I just watched The Grizzy Man Diaries.
I now know how I want to live and die.

Colin and I are traveling to Chicago by train to see Wilco and Radiohead.
I am ridiculously excited.
Also, at midnight tonight, he will be twenty-one. :-)

Of the 50+ pictures I got developed the other day, I would say about 25 are of my pets wearing various articles of clothing.

I guess this is what an "awesome summer" feels like.
It's been a few years.
I think I am finally settling in to myself.

When you're back in your old neighborhood
The cigarettes taste so good
But you're so misunderstood
You're so misunderstood.
There's something there that you can't find
You look honest when you're tellin a lie
You hurt her but you don't know why
You love her but you don't know why.
Short on long term goals
There's a party there that we ought to go to
Do you still love rock and roll?
Do you still love rock and roll?

4:12 pm - Reason #4978 that capitalism blows:
|
I take take the herb St. John's Wort for depression/anxiety. Because it is an herb, pharmaceutical companies cannot patent its formula and, therefore, cannot profit from it. I can attest to its effectiveness, however, as can anyone else who takes it regularly.
Because big medical companies have no interest in St. John's Wort, there have been few studies done on its interactions with other medications.
Based on reports from patients and ONE independent clinical study, it is now thought that St. John's Wort can reduce the effects of birth control pills by up to 50%.
Awweeesssooommmmeeee... Now I have to stop taking St. John's Wort and turn into Super Bitch again.
I really liked St. John's Wort. It was cheaper than my anti-depressants, and had a much less obvious effect. Basically, I still felt 100% like myself. Besides reactions with some drugs, it's probably safe. And it could probably do a lot of people a lot of good.
But we'll never know, because there is no money to be made in researching such issues, despite the fact that it is sold to be taken into the human body multiple times a day.
FUCK YOU, CAPITALISM.
current mood:  pissed off

Last week in biology I learned about how when you are stressed out for long periods of time, your nervous system produces lots of glucocorticoids, which break down proteins and fats, and suppress your immune system.
I guess that explains why I am miserably ill right before exams/moving.
But that doesn't change the fact that I am miserably ill before exams/moving, rendering studying/packing, well... miserable.
current mood:  sick

I am going to hold my breath, close my eyes, and brace myself through the next two weeks. It will all be over soon...
Does anyone know what it means when you have localized pain right under your skin? No bruises, redness, or swelling... Just really bad pain.
I think I am most excited about seeing My Morning Jacket this summer.
I got a really cool bike this weekend. It was in the classifieds. $50, "old fashioned," and it came with a basket in the back!
This entry is a waste.

Tonight I argued with a Catholic priest.
I told him that studies and statistics prove that wider availability of contraceptives reduce abortion rates.
He told me I had "pushed one of [his] buttons."
Approximately ten minutes later, we parted ways, and I realized that I am probably going to hell.

FOUND A HOUSE! Amy and I signed the lease today. It's a cute duplex RIGHT next to campus. We have a little fenced in yard and a two car garage. The garage is huge! It's cheap, cute, cozy, and convenient. (Yay alliteration!)
Now that I'll be living so close to campus, I need a bike. A used, shitty bike is fine with me, and I don't want to pay more than $50. I went to the bike shop today and told them just that. The dude was all like, "Well... Our bikes start at $175... And our used bikes are even more. They're vintage. You might try a used Wal-Mart bike, but then you're going to have to invest at least $100 in repairs. Oh and by the way... I love dick."
I was like "$175?! Whatevs, dude. I'm going to garage sales this weekend, and when I find an awesome $10 bike, I'm going to spend the whole afternoon riding around in your parking lot telling people how ridiculous you are."
Or something like that.
current mood:  awake

Colin has his own life. I don't attend his Buddhist things because I usually have homework. He goes out drinking with his friends most nights while I stay at home (again, school). For the brief times we've been awake together over the last few days, he's in the kitchen cooking, so I can't really talk to him then.
I get so jealous I feel violent. It's irrational, I know, but that doesn't make the pain any less real. I'm always invited. And when he's cooking, he's cooking for me. He sleeps here almost every night (except when he's out too late). I should be thankful.
But I'm not. And there's only an extent to which I can hide my resentment. So I'm the bad guy. I'm the bitch. And I am! I know! But it's not something I'm proud of. I live in a perpetual state of having my feelings hurt, and when I get mad, I hate myself for letting myself get mad.
Maybe I'm just dreading this move. We won't sleep next to each other every night anymore. Maybe I'm afraid that's the strongest part of us, and I fear what will happen when that disappears.
Gah. I hate being a girl sometimes. I swear to God none of this has even occurred to him. He, in his masculine ignorance/wisdom knows that we love each other madly, and somehow that's enough.

10:13 am - Livejournal, please take me back. I never stopped loving you.

I am moving within the next few weeks. At first I was very upset. The roommates weren't overly considerate of how their spontaneous decision to move in spite of the landlord would affect me. Especially since we are apparently moving exam week. But I'm trying to make the best of it, which means I'm not going to dwell on the fucked up parts even long enough to write them. I've been simmering in this shit for a week, and I'm tired of hating everyone.
The new house (wherever it may be...) will be much smaller and (hopefully) in better condition. Amy, Eileen, and I are moving in together (with Isa and Miko, of course). Colin, Katie, and Paul have a place together. And then Bruce, Luke, and some dude I don't know have a house by campus. So much for the Lovers Lane hippie commune. The cats are getting all split up, too.
The task that lies ahead is just concentrating on school non-stop until exams. This is the first time ever that cramming is absolutely impossible, considering that I'M MOVING OVER EXAM WEEK! Gah! Did I mention everyone else already has a place and we are still driving around looking for LEASE signs? And that we haven't told our landlord that we're moving out? And that we have to be out by May 5th or pay next month's rent in two places? And that I will be working the weekend of the May 3rd-4th (plus moving and studying for my Chem exam, apparently)? Last night I had a dream that Rusty (the landlord) moved all our stuff out of the house and brought it to the dump.
Ok... Breathe... Happy thoughts...

Blessed sister, holy mother, spirit of the fountain, spirit of the garden,
Suffer us not to mock ourselves with falsehood
Teach us to care and not to care
Teach us to sit still
Even among these rocks,
Our peace in his will
And even among these rocks
Sister, mother
And spirit of the river, spirit of the sea,
Suffer me not to separated
And let me cry unto Thee.
Pray for us, Phong.
