you're my satellite

currently pulling a solid C in art. obviously, not my calling. i would really be interested in knowing why i continue to obtain bad grades in only classes relating to my MAJOR. basically, this does not make me feel good at all but rather, the opposite and then some.

last night was one of those nights that you wish could last for at least a week. being with my long-distance other half at a fantastic concert = fun times a billion. doors opened at an early 6:30, so we got in at least a couple hours of good pre-concert talk. an especially great part of the night: i was fortunate enough to stand beside the coolest 50-year-old man and his wife (a good sport). this guy was rocking out 100%, seriously, his dancing consisted solely of rocking back-and-forth from foot to foot, and it was as endearing as ever. of course, he sang along to all the words and on occasion, he even inspired the crowd to clap along and do the punching-the-air concert move, which i still don't understand. oh, but i got to dance and sing and get signatures and meet famous people! ekk with excitement!

looking back on last night amplifies my already very excited and happy mood, which is quite astonishing in light of recent random outbursts, a depressing oprah, a depressing dr. phil, and me missing people to tears.

let's see. sometimes when i bare my soul to someone, i feel like i'm talking to a wooden plank, and then i ask myself why i am talking. now that i think about it, today was an amazing day, actually. wait, why was that again? didn't you get a shitty econ grade? isn't your GPA taking a nosedive? aren't you scared shitless of getting kicked out of the honors program? hm, all true BUT. for some reason, it was still really good. wow, could it be? am i really transforming into an optimist?

by the way, this week is skirt week because it's a warm 50 degrees! also by the way, i wanted to make a list of the GOOD and the BAD (and the UGLY, for kicks) of warm and cool weather. this is mostly related to wardrobe choices, allowing me to come to the conclusion that skirts are just undeniably better than all other articles of clothing. it's a FACT. i've always wanted to play the game FACT or CRAP because it looks and sounds so dorky cool. also, i've always wanted to watch just one SEINFIELD episode (to see what all the fuss is about and understand those people whose main language is seinfield quotations).

i have to go eat this leftover laffy taffy now. YES for wrapper jokes!
