Killing ten minutes at the end of a 2 hour shift (how pointless is that?!) while Robert takes his break.  I don’t really think I’ll miss these people much (except for Angie, of course) and I can’t wait to get back to Barb and Jeanne and all the crazy kids at the Info/Tickets desk.  It’ll be fun to tease Tad about his inability to count money – he’s a fun kid.  That was a much more comfortable work environment than Fluno is – no uniforms, a LOT less crabby/bitchy/pissed off people, and a lot more fun.  I don’t like being the lone “kid” amongst all these businessy adults.  My co-workers are nice, but working in this environment has made me realize I never want to do it again.  I don’t understand business people and I never want to become one.

Anyway, life is chaotic as usual.  I churned out a 5-page history midterm last night, my lab group has a meeting Sunday night, I have a Food Sci quiz next Friday, etc, etc.  Plus, what with trying to sublet (anyone want to live on Langdon?!), figure out bills and budgets, packing again, and going through a ton of paperwork BS, I’m exhausted.  I haven’t seen Amber in forever and I miss her.  I have no food in my apartment and I look terrible from lack of sleep.  My medication is making me constantly sick to my stomach and I can’t drink water because it makes it worse (does this make ANY sense?!).

But I’m doing okay.  I think I’m making a positive step toward becoming a happier, better person and, on top of that, a teacher.  I’m looking forward to going back to Whitewater to get my BSE and knowing that I can graduate in 2007, instead of 2008 or 2009, like it would be if I stayed here. 

I told Amber some things that I really needed to tell her and I’ve been keeping up with my letters to Linds and Brookie.  I still don’t like how I look or my weight, but that’s something I’ll have to deal with for now.

Enough disjointed rambling.  I’ve got class.
