Playing catch up…Again.
Wednesdayness continued…
The what I found to do…Read the book that James gave me to read. ‘Gathering Blue’ by Lois Lowry. *is plotting James’s death* I absolutely HATE open-ended stories. *seeks to put an end to their authors*
Apparently this book as has one that comes before it ‘The Giver’…But didn’t need to read that one to understand what was going on in this one. &…’Messenger’…Which takes place six years after the one I read, and has at least two or three of the same characters in it.
Appa is alive once more…Seems it was his battery that decided to just up and die on us. A bit of warning would have been nice, though I suppose they don’t tend to do that. Yeah, yeah, there was the whirring noise yesterday, but Gods…How was I suppose to know it was the battery dying. O.o
Went to Gaylord to get battery…As we had done so prior to finding food for ourselves, stopped into B.C.P. Mum & the Critters stayed in the car, as Harley was in a bit of a mood (which has been the case most of the week it seems *sigh*). *got waved at with a pizza paddle* *laughs* Got to talk to Todd for a minute. It was going to be down to him, one other guy, and the driver at work, as the other guy that was there wasn’t feeling well, and was getting ready to leave.
Thursday:
Um…Uh…*thinks back to yesterday*
School…*nods* That’s what took up yesterday.
I ended up with a hurting head, and feeling much of the tireds. So I did the ‘go to bed early thing’…Which lasted to the early morning hours of Friday.
Friday started at 1:47 AM. Phone rang…I didn’t wake up until it was doing ringing. O.o Had to call the bar back. Figured it was Todd looking for a ride…Figured right.
So, went and got him and brought him back here. Got back to sleep around 4 AM…Was up by nearly 7. (When Harley came in the bedroom looking for me when he couldn’t find me.) Snuggled with Harley for a few before having to get up and get the Critters read for school.
Ug…Harley didn’t want to let go this morning. It was near torture to get him to let me go. Sonja was crying, and saying she didn’t feel good before I left the building too…I figured she just didn’t want to be there.
Got back home, curled up on air mattress…Phone rang…Blocked call. *inner groan* I thought for sure it was Harley…Nopes…Sonja had apparently gotten sick, and needed to come home. [*glances at child* Faker! Okay, I will give, maybe she didn’t feel good, perhaps she almost got sick, or got sick a little…She says her friends heard her in the bathroom, then dragged her to the office. After a bit here, and with Todd asking about it…She got this look on her face that said she faked most of being sick so she could come home.] That was the end of my napping for a while…I sat with her and helped her with the homework that she hadn’t done with week done.
I did squeeze in a bit of a nap…Should of snuck off to the bedroom.
Decided to get dressed for the day…Was in the middle of that when the phone rang again. Sonja told me it wasn’t one of the annoying 800 numbers, but another blocked call. *headdesk* Apparently, Harley did have a bad day today. *sigh* I ended up going in at almost 2 PM to get him, as he went under the bleachers in gym class, and refused to come back out. He was out by the time I got there to get him though.
Once home, Harley had another fit, yelled that he hated me, and went to his room. I went to my room, grabbed a blanket, pulled it up over my head, and announced that I was hiding from my children.
Mum came home to watch the Critters so I could 1) take Todd back to his Blazer & 2) go walking with Libby, as it was in the 80’s today. Yay good weather!
Had to drop Todd off at Chuck’s, as that’s where he left the Blazer. Went to kiss him good-bye, got a tiny little kiss…Then he said I was going to embarrass him. But it wasn’t the irritating, I don’t want to be seen kissing you embarrass…His look, and his tone said that he was actually having a shy-ish moment. *laughs* It was cutes.
Random things:
My needed to be 4 page assignment #3 for Creative Writing…It’s become 10 pages! *falls over* It’s two of Azi’s role-play entries put together. I’m not sure how I’m going to pull off assignment #4 yet…Haven’t really looked it over to see what the ins & outs of it are yet.
Need to work on sketchbooks…I have to make sure they get caught up to date…I don’t want to have to go overly mental trying to get them done before end of semester.
Oh yeah…Last letter from college.
Apparently I’m in the top 10% at college. O.o Still trying to figure out how the bloody hell that happened. Anyway…They’ve invited me to join Phi Theta Kappa…It’s the International Honour Society! *falls over*
Well…I’ve been wondering if Todd was going to invite me to go with him to his sister’s wedding next year…I don’t have to wonder any more, as apparently, Crystal broke up with her Yooper fiancé’, packed up her son, and moved back into Todd’s parent’s house.
One point last night, Todd told me he knew I didn’t like the bar scene, which is why he didn’t invite me to show up at the bar. I’m really going to have to tell him if he wants me to go out to one sometime, I will. I’d do it just to get to spend some time with him.
Another, ‘One point last night’, Todd told me that he realizes I’m really his girl. I said I thought he already knew that. He said, yeah…But for some reason it seemed more like it. Not the exact words…I can’t remember them exactly…But the point is there…I think…It’s suppose to be anyway.
Seems like there was something else…Though I can’t remember what just yet…
Oh yeah…There are two poetry contests, which need to have poems submitted by the beginning of October. I’ve got 5 poems picked out…But I’m not sure which 3 I should use…So I’ll post them here…And if anyone has any thoughts or want to share…Feel free…Though I think I’ll put it in a different entry…Or this one will be way too long.
Lois Lowry is good for writing open-ended stories. I read a couple of her books when I was in high school, and yeah… *shakes head* Wow. Not a good day for the Critters, huh? Have things gotten better since? Yay for spending quality time with Todd! *smiles* Told you not to worry too much. Am glad he realizes that you is his, too. Yay for walkies! Another thing I miss about being in MI, heh. Congrats on being the top of your class!!! That is excellent! *tosses confetti* My sissy is of the smarts. *nods* *HUGS*
