Apparently Emma feels that she is more important than my paper, so I must throw her toy while typing with one hand. I am so coordinated. Report on the Sheep and Wool Festival soon...

Being a Grown-Up

Courtney's right, I am turning into my mom. But in my case it's not bad, it's just funny. Now that my hair doesn't freak when I try to blow-dry it, because it's short, I like showering in the morning, which means working out in the morning, just like mom. Also, the shorter hair in general is one step closer. Now I just need to start eating tuna fish every single day...

2 Down

This week is ridiculously busy for some reason, but starting it off with an appointment that seemed to almost confirm my suspicion that I had something up with my thyroid and having a wonderful group in history with which to do my presentation was a good sign. My choir director thought my voice sounded good at my audition today, which I disagreed with, and my history prof. loved my group's presentation. So despite my constant stress, and the fact that the week is not even half over yet, at least the fruits of my labor seem to be paying off...except that my thyroid issue would mean that my body is being weird to me, but I would much rather it be that than something weird. I find out on friday if that is in fact what is wrong, so I'm still hoping!

In Rainbows!!

The new Radiohead cd came out today! It was only available as a download that you chose how much to pay for. I gave them 7 bucks because they're my favorite band. If I had money I probably would have given more. Since it was a download I thought I should make my cd pretty because it didn't come with any art on it, obviously. That's what I came up with ^ ...I really want the box set that comes out in December, but it's like 80 bucks, so oh well, I'm still excited!!

Ha, ok...

Well. I feel really weird right now, like I haven't really gotten the hang of the semester yet, which is bad, but like I also don't care, which is also bad. Hopefully fall break will help so that I can get ahead a little in my classes so that I don't have anymore meltdowns reminiscent of my art homework incident last week. My problem is that I just shut down when I have so much to do. I work well under pressure, but not the overwhelming pressure of a long to do list. I just want this semester to be over, but at least the new radiohead cd comes out next week! I really wish I had the $80 for the box set, but I don't so I will have to settle on the download for now I suppose.
Emma caught another mouse on Monday and this time I had to watch. I felt bad for the mouse, but I didn't want it inside anymore, so if the cat is the easiest way to catch it, oh well, poor mouse. My adviser asked why I didn't let her kill it and I decided that there are two reasons to not let Emma kill the mouse. First of all, my dad told me that cats' canine teeth are perfectly spaced to snap small rodents' necks, but that cats don't know how to bite them correctly unless they learn from their mothers. This makes sense since I watched Emma repeatedly pick the mouse up by it's butt. Anyway, I don't want her to torture the poor thing to death. Secondly, she loses all her toys under furniture, so I don't want her to accidentally hide a dead mouse somewhere.
I am so tired of school!
