waiting for the weekend
It's FRIIIIIIIDAAAAAAAY!
I don't know what it is about my weeks, but I'm always completely EXHAUSTED by
the end. I never know how I am going to make it to hockey, and then when I
get home from the game, I'm more tired than I ever thought I could be. Then I
end up sleeping until noon or something on Saturday and wasting most of my
day. There's gotta be a more efficient way to do this.
It probably didn't help that I spent a good two hours after I went to bed listening to the ice on
my roof crack, inch slowly down the shingles, and then fall crashing to the
ground. It was like being under a glacier.
I had a blast with Minda last night. We FINALLY saw Bridget Jones 2. I
laughed so hard. And that Colin Firth -- the older he gets, the hotter he
gets. I have a thing for tall boys with curly hair, I guess. But it was also
just fun to hang out with a GIRL for once. There are too many boys in my
life, it seems. And I don't get to see the girls in it as often as I would
like. As a result, I'm turning into a weird person.
Minda and I spent a lot of time bitching about school. You know how that is.
But I feel I must warn you, folks. I'm going to become very boring in the
next three months. If you think all I can talk about now is grad school and
my thesis, think again. The only people who will be able to identify are my
classmates, so the rest of you might not want to talk to me so often.
Actually, you won't be able to. I am turning into a hermit. I have WORK to
do!
UPDATE 13 JANUARY 2005, 9:51 AM
So, I mailed off two of my applications yesterday evening. Some of the
reference letters I will have to send on Monday, which makes me nervous, but
what can you do? Then I went shopping.
Jen, you will be pleased to know that I bought a new pair of black pants
yesterday. I will now throw out ONE pair of my staple pants. So now I'm down
from four pairs of staple pants to just one. Are you happy now?
Man, what's with this weather? I was out with Stefan yesterday, and it went
from freezing rain to a THUNDERSTORM and pouring rain. Which meant I drove
home at 25 km/h. Then it all froze, so I wore cleats on my boots in order to
get down the hill into the Village this morning for work. Uphill will be a
challenge, indeed. But it's supposed to go up to TEN DEGREES today. WHAT
GIVES? This is January in Ottawa. It's supposed to be forty-five below. Hrm.
Is it Saturday yet?
