Not Many People Are Named After A Plane Crash

Oy. I am still sick as hell. What I've got is seriously the worst cold in the history of man. I've got a doctor's appointment tomorrow at 3:45 about it because I've been sick for roughly 500 days by now. So basically I'm miserable and cranky. Hopefully I'll be well by Monday since I have school. Booooo.

No easy load this time, either. I'm taking all four classes on campus, and I'll be there from..well, bollocks, I'll just type up my schedule.

Biological Science I - MWF - 9:05AM to 9:55AM
Introduction To Theatre - MWF - 10:10AM to 11:00 AM
Beginning Algebra - MWF - 11:15AM to 12:05PM
English Composition - MWF - 12:20PM to 1:10PM
Biological Science I Lab - W - 2:00PM to 4:45PM

Fascinating, right? So I'll be at school for four hours on Monday and Friday and 50 bazillion hours on Wednesday (or roughly 7.75 hours..whatever). And I was thinking how bad that's going to suck for me on Wednesdays, but then I'll have the lovely thought of "'Lost' comes on tonight!" to get me through the day. Plus biology lab work rules, except for dissecting animals. Groooooooss! Oh yeah, I just registered today although class starts on Monday. Brilliant, aren't I?

I took my lip ring out today. Maybe it's my cold, but the damn thing was starting to annoy me. So, I wore it for about two and a half months. And I actually do have pictures of it, they've just not been developed yet. This, of course, means that by the time you lot get to see my lip ring, I will no longer be sporting it. Oh well. It got boring.

Not much else to say other than I watched Snatch today, which I have owned for about 3 or 4 years but actually understood for the very first time. I don't know, you have to pay really close attention throughout the movie to make sense of anything that's happening, and it was difficult for me to follow the story line since some of the characters have very hard-to-understand accents. So I finally did the brilliant thing of putting the subtitles on. Good, yes?

Off to blow my nose some more...

It feels rather like I left something out, but you get the general idea. All in all, the Christmas season was extremely enjoyable, and all the more so because my favorite sister, Brenda, was here from Dallas for four days. She's totally the coolest ever. Totally.

I don't remember the span of time between Christmas and New Years too well. It seems like I spent a fair amount of time away from the house, but I can't for the life of me remember what I did. While I was here, I watched all my new movies. I watched Breakfast Club twice in a row one day, just for the hell of it. One day, Torie and I went shopping in Anderson, and then she and Derrick came over, and we got really drunk and played LOTR Trivial Pursuit. I completely kicked their asses, it was awesome! I mean, Torie has only seen each of the movies once, so that was no big accomplishment, but Derrick is a big LOTR fan. So there! Then for New Years, Torie and I threw a party and once again got completely pissed. I drank more at that party than I ever have in my life. I remember the evening surprisingly well considering the state I was in. We made lots and lots of prank phone calls, and they were totally hilarious. This one kid, Chris, does perfect impressions of Beavis and Butthead, so he was calling people and doing that. Oh gah, SO funny! And after the festivities, Torie and I called people that we actually knew and screamed "Happy New Year!" into the phone repeatedly. And I'm pretty sure I called Alisha and left her one of those drunken "I love you so so much!" messages, but I'm not 100% on that. Oh, and we also got her brother Will to make us some tater tots because we were too drunk to work the oven. So he did and we ate them while watching Napolean Dynamite, which was--needless to say--much funnier than usual. Oh yeah, I got Napolean Dynamite, by the way. I got it the morning it came out. Because I am obsessed.

Oh yeah, and also during my LJ hiatus, I got to see the Kill Bill movies for the first time, and they are SO FREAKIN' AWESOME! I've watched Volume One about ten times in the last two weeks. It's pretty sad. I've only watched the second one once, though, because BB makes me weep. Seriously.

So I think that's about it for right now. If anybody is still interested, I have been working on part 33 of My Feral Days off and on for about two weeks now. It is coming very slowly, but then again most important chapters do. Hint hint. So...right. I suppose I'll post it when it's finished if anybody actually wants to read it. Now I'm off to change my layout.
