  • I'm supposed to go see Narnia with Matt today. I keep calling him--he hasn't answered his cell phone and nobody seems to be at his house either. Crap. I really want to see this movie, and I really want to be with him. Lo…

  • Dad has now upgraded every machine in the house to Tiger, including mine. Bit weird. Mostly it's the same as Panther, but there are definitely a few things that are very different. Namely the thing called Spotlight. That…

  • All right, so, I called him, and then he called me, and then as usual I just babbled about crap and he kind of went, "Mm," occasionally.Then he told me, "I'm going to see 'King Kong.'" "Cool, when?" I said. "In about an …

  • Listening to the Imogen Heap album now. I love it. Especially "Daylight Robbery." Oh my gawd, that song makes me want to dance. Crazy.I'm supposed to be designing a library. I have a vision in mind, but it would have to …

  • Well, that was okay. Nothing exciting, really. Nothing went horribly wrong or anything, though. I still don't know when I'm going to knock some sense into him about taking me for granted and stuff.So today I got a ride h…

  • He's on his way here, thank gods. Holy shit. Now what?Nervousness sets in while Silverchair plays "Satin Sheets" at full volume...-

  • Calling Matt to see if he can spontaneously come over, take two:Well, this time he said, "Maybe later on... My mom will be home soon, then I'll give you a call." Which is his way of saying "no." Is he avoiding me on purp…

  • Just now, I called Matt in the hopes that he could come over. (He seemed to think I just wanted to talk on the phone.) He killed any chance of me seeing him by saying he's "busy right now." What could he possibly be doin…

  • I still have to design a library for Bennington. Then I can send in my application and supplement. Then, I have to ask about scheduling an interview by phone. Then I have to talk on the phone with some stranger and try t…

  • This morning I checked for a delay around 6 AM, and there wasn't one. So I got all set to go by 6:45, as always, and then while I was walking to the bus stop, I met Mona on the sidewalk walking Sammy and Michael, and she…

  • School got out three hours early because of the impending storm. And sure enough, the first flakes were falling by the time the bell rang at 11:10. And it's starting to stick now. I love snow.My warm fuzzy was Emily! (Ju…

  • The concert was okay, I guess. We've done the Rachmaninov so much better in rehearsal, though. At least I think so. The spiritual was fine. "Shenendoah" was decent. "Beau Soir" was much more fluid and more powerful on Mo…

  • Highlights of the day:~ I listened to "Ten Thousand Fists" for the (?)th time on the bus. I officially adore Disturbed.~ I got a cup of hot chocolate from my warm fuzzy this morning (yes, actual hot chocolate! I drank it…

  • What's all this "good luck, don't die" crap? I can handle this. I think. I hope.Matt comes home on Sunday the 18th, but knowing him, I probably won't be able to see him until after Christmas. Figures. And he might come t…

  • It snowed a bit last night, so there's a two-hour delay today, allowing me ample time to finish my project for psychology. Yes. I still have fifteen minutes before I have to leave to catch the bus, and I don't know what …

  • Well, that was discouraging.First I went to see the representative from the University of Hartford, to which I've applied (but not the art school) and from which I am awaiting a response. The guy told me that I'm "off to…
