paid parking ticket

this morning i had a dentist appointment, which meant i got to sleep in a little tiny bit (til 7:30). the interesting thing about that, is that i woke up at 7:28 before the alarm went off, feeling very well rested. i actually stayed up a little later last night, so i really only got the same amount of sleep as usual, but felt more well rested because of the time i got up at. i've made this observation for many years, it has led me to believe that i live in the wrong time-zone.

there's a crazy dance party going on across the street from the maxi pad this evening. it's seriously a "much music dance party". there are several large air castles in the parking lot. it's part of frosh week, since the students are too young to go out to the bars. i remember this from last year too. it's really bizarre because they bus the students in from the ghetto – that's right, the ghetto that is approximately 2 blocks south of here – 5 if they're REALLY far away.

i remember that time i danced so hard i ripped my pants.

i FINALLY finished the wrist warmers i was knitting for bren. they took forever. i think i lose interest in a project if i've knitted it before. i guess i'll just have to always knit unique things, stuff that new, fresh, and happening. there were times when i felt that perhaps that would be the project to end my knitting career. but i overcame. now i have to think of something else. i wanted to knit these knuckle mitts for a certain boy, but he didn't like me back, so i've scrapped that idea. it's his loss because i think he would've really liked them. look who's laughing now!?!?! :p i would knit some leg warmers but i bought some in peru (which, now that i think of it, i've misplaced somewhere). maybe i'll knit a toque, i've never knitted a toque before. or maybe mitts.

i currently have a few zits on my face. shouldn't i be past that by now? it's like i'm perpetually going thru puberty.

count the lipstick stains,
that you get on all my cups.

They bus them not because it is too far to walk but because they worry about losing them.

I think that zits happen only during puberty is a myth. It seems to me they can be a life long affliction.

well, i figured they bus them because most of them are new to the area and don't know where the m centre is, and therefore probably wouldn't bother going. the buses are probably incentive.

ya, you're probably right rach.

OH NO! You've lost your leg warmers?! Lesley, I miss you.

yelsel said...

i know! it sucks. i wish i wasn't so careless with my stuff. hopefully they'll turn up soon.

i miss you too. you should email me and tell me about school!

my students are kind enough (read: bratty enough) to point out my zits to me. as if i don't know they're there. freaks.

i think it's more about your usual wake-time than your time zone... although the time zone is more poetic for sure. i know that i slept in until 7:47 this morning, and i felt so rested i thought for sure it must be at least 9. of course then i lolled around reading all morning, so now i feel like i overslept. :P
