Peas On The Moon

I know I'll be back some, and I know I can always drop in, but, Ow? Not really the word I'm looking for.
I got a cake. I felt special. I think that's why it hurt even more. I went down to tell the guys i had cut the cake, and realized that no one had informed Dave of my departure. He wasn't any more convinced of it's necessity than the others. Oh well. Not up to them or me.
So we all had cake, and I did my work and said my goodbyes.
In my mind. It's not forever, just for a little while, so i tried not to make a big deal out of it. I just said my everyday goodbyes, promised to drop in and torment them, and took off. I hate goodbyes. Even temporary ones.
Thank You Guys for being my family for over 3 years. .... But don't think you've gotten rid of me yet!

I don't mean to complain. I don't mean to be yet another annoying person in your day, but i want, no NEED, this freakin' cold to stop!
It's not a huge deal for me to put on some extra clothes to make the treck to UPEI, and the further bitter cold trecks across the campus, but this is getting old. We have snow and it's too cold to go out and enjoy it. My dog and I can't go out and play becaue he freezes (litterly). His feet freeze and he limps around. Some dogs are actually seizing up, and that is just going out to pee.
As for going to ride my horse. Out of the question. Not only would I freeze by the time i got her ready, but it would be an act of unfair creulity to take off her rugs and make her work in the stiffling cold.
I'm not asking for it to be spring(though it would be nice), I just want to be able to play with my animals and enjoy the snow! (without dying):p

Upon the cancelation of my lab, mom and I went down to do some "cleaning" of the storage room in the basement. It was really more a throwing-out fest. We got about half done. It was good. But that was not the interesting part. I found some old pictures that had been attacked by water, so they were a bit stuck together, or a lot stuck together. Some were salvagable. It was in one of these pictures, that I came across something of interest. It was a picture of me, when i was about 6 or 7, holding a huge carving knife high in the air (above a b-day cake). I had a look of awe on my face. I immediately thought "this explains a lot", "this is where it all began!" hehehe. No wonder they don't let me have sharp objects anymore!

I trooped off to work. 2 days left.:(. Came home had supper, did some homework and the like. Did some organizing. Almost got abandoned on the curb at Tim's;). All in all a half productive storm day.

I have come to the conclusion that Ihate getting up in the morning. I dread it. And at first i thought it was because the alarm always seems to go off too early, when i am sill tired, but now I'm thinking that's not it. Mainly because, if left to my own resources, even if i go to bed way too late, my biological clock will wake me up at a half reasonable time, though i have not had enough sleep (usually). So the whole tired thing was cut out. Not a valid reason.
I have decided that it's purely psychological. See, I hate being made to do anything. I usually get pretty resentful and become determined not to be happy. Stupid, i know, but it's usually true. So my theory is that when I leave it to the point that i have to get up or I will be late, then it makes it harder to get up, and i wake up in a worse mood.
My plan of action, is to set my alarm earlier so i can be left to wake up more on my own devices. I will not be setting it at a specific time for the m-f work week. I just want to try to give myself a bit more time to comfortably wake up and get ready, without a rush, and see how that goes. It may not work. But only time will tell.

Are we being punished? It's damn cold out there. It's windy, and the visibility is minimal, and you still make us troop off to classes? Nutcases! Most of the profs don't want to come in for classes either. Think about the lives here people!!!! It's called car accidents and frostbite.

I take that back.. They are getting smarter. Though they _should_ have cancelled it this morning.

Anyone who talks to me on MSN, or anyone who i email, actually anyone who i have any internet relationship with what so ever, must have noticed by now my, hmm how shall i put it, dislexia when it comes to typing. I can type. I do the whole right fingers on right keys thing. I took the course. But I have found that for some reason when i type the letters get mixed up in the words and the spaces are not in the right places. It can make for some confusing reading. Many have gotten used to it.

Anyhow recently i have noticed some sort of a pattern. There is the usual "teh" and "adn" but i have a new one....."yo" is the new "you". I think it has become physically impossible for me to type "you" without really thinking about it. It always ends up being "yo". No real logic. Just my fingers not being able to keep up with my thoughts. Or at least that 's what I tell myself.

A round of applause please, for the registrars office. They have finally managed to fix my problem.

I'll explain. I was registered for a cross listed course. W St 241/Phil 241. Unthinkingly i registered for Phil 241, when in my head I was planning on using the course for my Women's studies minor. So I realized this, and decide to fix it now, so not to run into problems in the future. I go onto my account on-line and try to add/drop into the W St 241, but it says it's full and won't let me. I'm already in the course morons. So, I email my prof and she sends me to the registrar's office.

So off i go, and explain to them that I am already in the course, but i would like to be registered under the other section for the purpose of my minor. The lady goes on-line and tries the add/drop thing to the same results i did and procedes to inform me that the course is full and thus she can't do it. I'm starting to get rather pissed now because I'm in the course already!!!! It being "full" is not a valid issue. But I keep my calm (outwardly) and take the add/drop form she hands me and off i go for the required signature of my prof.

Back i go with my signature, and the registrar's office tries the add/drop thing on-line again. Uh.. guys... it didn't work the first two times, it won't work tje third time. Oh! guess what i'm told this time?.... " the course is full". No SHIT. Some important lady now has to do the switch, but this lady is busy, so i decide to leave it with them rather then wait as i have a meeting to attend.

Thankfully, I have just checked my account and I am offically in W St 241 instead of Phil 241. Now was it really that difficult people?

Attention:

Due to a computer mastermind, there are now ad-lib's on my blog. You may notice that under "Maria's Blog" there are strange mismatched sentances. Them's the ad-libs. Refresh the page and be amazed!

Sugar consumed today:

2 lg hot chocolate
1 lg cuppacino(sp?)
50+g of dark chocolate
cookies and such

Perhaps I should at least try to abide by my halfass resolution to eat less sugar. Mmmmmaybe.

Well. It has been an uhhh, interesting week, so far. So many ups and downs, well mostly downs. It's allpart of life right? That's what I keep on telling myself.

Katsumoto: You believe a man can change his destiny?
Algren: No... But I think a man cannot know his destiny. He can only do what he can, until his destiny is revealed.
I'm not quite sure If i believe all the stuff about faith,and how things are ment to happen, i.e. destiny. Is it decided before? Will one wrong move re-route the course of your future? I really don't know. Do we get rewarded for our good deeds? Unless we get a chance to really look back over our lives at the end, i'm not quite sure if we will ever really know.

Saw a great movie tonight. The Last Samurai. I was really skeptical when I saw the previews, but though "hey. Why not? It's Tom Cruise." So off we went, and WOW. But that is just my opinion. You will have to decide on your own.

Lots of rambling thought here. Right snow=sledding. And no dodgeball definatly means we should go sledding. Right? RIGHT.
