Wasting time... July 13, 2006 - 8:36:10
Campus wireless networks are a wonderful thing.
So here I am, up at least three hours earlier than normal (that was hell--I came thiiis close to rolling back over and falling asleep again when the alarm went off) and staring blankly at the computer screen with nothing to do, now that I have an hour wait for a twice re-scheduled doctor's appointment. CNN is no use--the attacks in Israel last night are unsettling to hear about, and as important as the situation is in the world right now, I find myself wanting to not care for at least another hour or so.
So I really have nothing to talk about, other than the fact that I've been watching a great deal of Doctor Who lately, and it's seriously affecting my subconscious. But I love it anyway, and staring at my Tenth Doctor and Rose wallpaper on the laptop certainly doesn't make matters any worse.
Dad's pushing me to get a new job, and I'm seriously contemplating it--I could easily drop my filler natural science course in August and pick up a better, well-paying job to help me pay off my credit card and start saving up for yet another appartment. Just another level of stress I'm dealing with, and it still blows my mind how much has changed in six months: I broke up with Drew, moved out of the appartment, changed majors, bought a laptop, and put in my notice at the library for the end of summer--and that was just in the first few weeks. The stress is starting to get to me, though, but thankfully I'm finding ways to lessen it and just enjoy my summer, rather than worrying over things that I cannot control.
I shouldn't be thinking about my life at 8:30 in the morning after only four hours of sleep, but that's what I'm doing, all reason and logic be damned.
...I should really get a dog, or a bird, or something. No more fish, though. That was just bad.
