All of the Above

Well it's almost 10 AM and it looks like it's going to be a bright sunshiney day. I have to attend lab today, and after that I shuffle on over to the library for my first day of work. Believe it or not I'm looking forward to it. Last night I even aggreed to sub three days next week in SMC. Mainly because I need the money, but also because I want to get on Anne's good side after all the work I missed last year.

Last night Gemma, Adam, and I cleaned the kitchen. It looks marvelous :) Gemma scrubbed the bathroom also, bless her heart. Adam was over here all night. Looks like he's gonna be an honorary roommate. Which is fine, Adam seems to be an okay guy. I used to think he was an ass, but he seems okay outside of the classroom. And he is SO enamored of Gemma. It's not even funny. You can just tell by the way that he looks at her, and touches her that he is completely smitten. It's kinda sad since Gemma doesn't like him like that, still he keeps hanging on.

And I was SUCH a nerd last night. I finished HALF of my weekend homework! Yes, I have nothing better to do with my time then try to academically excel. I swear I felt like such a dork, I was sitting there reading my psychology text book thinking, "I'm 23, aren't I suppose to have a life?"

And I finally ran into Agnes yesterday. I saw Heather too. And Marc. Yes, Marc. I think he was surprised I said hello to him. Still the stuck up tight ass he always was. I hope his dick shrivels up and falls off. :)

All right, back to the grind

Carla

Bratz

I bought a doll today :D

I think I've been watching too much Nickelodeon because for the last few days I have had the unnerving desire to own one of those new Bratz dolls. You know, the ones with the really big heads and itty bitty waists? At first I thought they were the ugliest things I'd ever seen, but after seeing their commercial a zillion times I started thinking they were kinda cute. And I even DREAMED that I owned one last night. And you know how I am. If I dream about it, then it's fate, I must have it.

So today I went down to the mall a bought me a Bratz doll. I got the asian one, her name is Jade. I also got her an extra outfit so we can have fashion fun. When I got it home, Tina and I spent a good half hour just trying to get the thing out of the box!

And speaking of Tina, she and I have been having a very good day. Last night she sat around showing me photos from Chatauqua. Oh and it turns out, my Wild Things film got mixed in with some of hers so she developed them by mistake. So they weren't lost! I was so excited. There are some really bad ass pictures of me in costume.

Anyway, today T and were actually talking again like the old days. We stood out on the porch together while she smoked, and talked about maybe starting to work out together. And we went out for dinner at Broadview. That was really nice. We were just laughing and talking and joking like we used to. She also started moving stuff into Williston today and that was fine too. I helped her lug some things over and I saw her room, which is huge! I think we just needed a couple of days to re-adjust to one another. Both of us had something of a formative summer and we both came back slightly altered. Also, the fact that she is moving out is definitely lifting some tension. Now neither of us have to worry about walking on eggshells. I'm looking forward to my double single and so is she. We were even talking about how we wanted to decorate our rooms. I was nervous at first, but now I'm pretty sure that Tina and I will be just fine. We're still pals, we can still have fun with each other, we just can't live together anymore. And it's really for the best. I honestly don't want someone who doesn't want to be here in my house. I want to be the kind of friend to Tina that I wish Mary could have been to me when I moved out. I want to understand her reasons so that I won't hold them against her, and make sure our friendship doesn't go sour just because one aspect of it isn't working.

Oh and speaking of Mary, she IM'D T today while T was out. I happened to be checking my email at the moment. Mary left a brief message saying "I think you made a great dicision by dumping Carla." Well I think she made a stupid decision by posting that message in a place where she knew I'd be able to see it. Or maybe she meant for me to see it. Hmmm, *lifts pinky to mouth, a la Austin Powers* Sadistic wench.

Eh, it's okay though. Now that she has graduated and I never have to see her again, I don't have to be fake nice to her anymore. She doesn't like me, I don't like her, fine. At least I know who my friends are. On the way back from the Broadview Tina said to me:

"Mary IM'd me today."

"Yeah, I know, I saw it."

"You did. I read it and I was like, what the hell! I'm not dumping Carla, where did she get that from! I couldn't believe she said that."

If my time with Tina hadn't been so spectacular today I may have actually thought T was going to "dump" me. But she won't. I know that now.

And Mary is going to be the next person to get blocked on my IM list :)
