Oct. 11th, 2003 03:30 pmOnce again I'm writing not because I have anything particularly stellar to share, but because I'm insanely bored. Just one hour of work left and it promises to be the longest. Such hours always are when you really want to leave. It's like those last five minuets of class right before vacation, the ones that never seem to end, you wind up staring at the clock, astounded by the fact that the hands don't appear to be moving. In the time it has taken me to type this I don't think my watch has forged forward even a millisecond. And I'm betting I spelled that word wrong. Eh, so be it.
There are maybe ten people in here. It's basically the start of a three day weekend so not many students have bothered to haul their cookies all the way out here. Columbus Day off, after five years of Knox that's something of a novelty. When I was initially hird, and told what holidays I'd be getting off I thought, "Oh man, that's right! This country has national holidays!" I'd forgotten such things existed. For the last five years my life has been sectioned off by winter break, spring break, and summer break, nothing else. There were no three day weekends. It was all or nothing.
Ooh, check it out, the hands of the clock just surged five minutes forward. Sweet!
At four Sebatian will make the half hour announcement, I'll start counting the money and then we'll twidle our thumbs till everyone clears out. Then I have the pleasure *groans* of walking all the way home because I spent all my money on lunch! Normally I wouldn't mind but I'm SOOOOO tired. I just want to get home as fast as possible so I can pass out on my bed.
Dude! Now a whole TEN minutes has passed. *throws confetti*
I'm hungry. I'm gonna have to eat before I pass out. I'm also gonna have to change the sheets on Mom's bed but I'm not gonna think about that right now. Nor am I going to think about the walk home, or the fact that I didn't bring my walkman with me to work today. I need caffeine. And cheese.
