this seems like a blog thing

and it took me a long time, so i'm putting up again. that's that.

(01) It's entirely possible that I will never have a normal sleep schedule. I realize my status said I was doing work this afternoon, and while that was partly true, I was mostly just sleeping. that is from the time of around 5:30 to 11 or so. Crazy, I know. That explains why I'm awake at almost 4am.

(02) It's weird that, considering I sleep so much I very rarely remember anything about my dreams. I know I have them, because I sleep for long periods of time. I just usually don't remember the mat all. I do, however, remember a dream I had a couple of years ago, where I was a member of a Latino gang. There were do rags and bad accents and bullets zipping past my head. It was definitely worth remembering. La Ganaga, anyone?

(03) My first cd was The Bodyguard soundtrack. I remember singing the Whitney Houston songs in to hairbrushes, on the swingset, etc. This probably raised a lot of questions.

(04) I joined the Y my first week back in Asheville. I haven't been since. I'm really embarrassed by this admission. I fully intended on going everyday. I'm such a flake. What I really need is a workout partner that is basically my complete opposite. They have nothing to gain, admittedly, from this transaction, but it would help me a lot.

(05) I always notice what shoes people are wearing before anything else.

(06) I really love the wintertime and the snow. I wish it were snowing now. The only trouble is that I completely refuse to drive in the snow or ice. I am bad enough in normal conditions. It's best for everyone.

(07) Almost the only thing I can say with certainty that I want is the chance to travel. I would love to see all kinds of different places. The trouble is I have very little dollars to do this. It would be great to find a job that I had to travel for, but - considering the job market - I'll be lucky to get what I can get.

(08) I would ultimately like to live in a big city. But I have a really hard time with this, because I would like to be close to my friends and family. I feel like a little kid whenever I think of this because I just don't know how to compromise on this issue. I don't want to live in Durham all my life though. Would be much better to just come visit. We'll see. I guess.

(09) I have a terrible memory. I have a difficult time remembering how old I am. I am 26, btw. I don't feel 26. I have virtual nothing figured out at this point and tere are people my age and younger that seem well ahead of me in this capacity.

(10) Related to # 9, I forgot my best friend's age on his last birthday in December. I wrote the wrong age in his card and on his myspace and everything. He thought it was funny, but I was really embarrassed.

(11) I really want to learn as many different foreign languages as I can. I took Spanish and Portuguese but I'm incredibly forgetful, and have lost a lot of it. Jordanna told me I should look for a bootleg copy of the Rosetta stone things, because they are rull espenisive.

(12) Right now I could really go for some Earl Grey Tea.

(13) I am obsessed with music. I have to have it on almost all the time. Especially if I'm driving. If we are in the car, I am happy to listen to you, but you'll have to talk over the music because I won't turn it all the way down. It's no disrespect to you.

(14) I have "Black Barbie" by Little Jackie stuck in my head right now.

(15) All of my relationships have been less than 6 or 7 months long. I haven't had that many, but this seems really short. It's entirely possible that they just get tired of me, because out of all the things in my life that I choose to be completely neurotic and crazy over, relationships are at the top. I constantly obsess over things I say and do and try to figure out where I stand in relationships. Complete freak. I feel like I'm pretty good at relationships, though, because all this shit is behind the scenes. I am single, though, of course.

(16) I am most likely going out dancing Friday and Saturday night this week. It won;t be to the same place. This could be the first time I have done this since when I was at NC State. It's not that it should be commemorated or anything, but it's been a long time.

(17) I am out of Diet Coke (with Lime) and this always warrants a grocery store trip no matter what time it is.

(18) I tend to procrastinate. A lot of times this means I will watch tv or movies before I start something. Or I'll check Facebook or Myspace before starting work. It's bad. Also, even sadder is I'll delay starting things by making lists about just how onpoint I intend to be in completing them.

(19) My room is a mess. It wasn't earlier today, because I cleaned it earlier. this is also something I use to procrastinate, because I can live in somewhat disarray, but I can't work in it.

(20) I am the worst at money management. I can rationalize any purchase. I don;t know my credit score, but let's just say I'm very scared.

(21) I want a cat. I was parked beside this car that had the cutest dog in it. I don;t want a dog as much because they are so much like a child in how much attention they need. But a really sweet cat would be fun. One that was completely stank and aloof would be fun, too. Just not as much.

(22) I fear I may have Restless Leg Syndrome. I've thought this for awhile, but have been too embarrassed to really explore it. My feet and legs are always shaking if I'm sitting still. And I don;t have that much energy. It's far more likely to be a physical problem.

(23) I have been avoiding work off and on all night. Did you know all the seasons of Arrested Development are on Hulu?

(24) I hate to break the rules, but I'ma cheat since my shit was erased. I had 25 things but they are gone, and it's late. I was completely fine with not doing this at all after that, but I had a neurotic need to finish it, since I'd spent a long time on it. That's not intended to reflect on any pressure you have to enjoy it, I'm just letting you know.

(25) It's almost 5 and it's my bedtime, boys an girls. It's a sick reality, but it's true. I love you all.
