Not embracing the day

Wow.

I'm exhausted. I had softball practice AND Youth and Government today, couple that with school and it's almost a death sentence. It's funny. I saw myself posting this elaborate and in-depth post explaining my feeling this way, but all I see is whining coming out from underneath these keys.

I wore my new shoes to school today. I got a lot of compliments about them. They did give me blisters, though. But it's all right. They'll go away.

I work in the library at my school, so I'm constantly given something to do, as if I might die without a purpose. I put away books, switch out magazines, check in and out things for other students. Normally it's not so bad. But today I was given the task of sharpening pencils. Seriously. I mean--it's like...COME ON!! Sharpening pencils. Gawwwd.

After that, I almost had a giggle fit in French class. I got partnered up with this one freshman who's so out of this world...no, honestly. I'm not trying to say he's cool, I'm trying to say he's highly distracted. So it makes for an interesting period, really. Now that I look back on it though, I'm an idiot, laughing that much. Nothing was funny, at all. Not even "Je ne veux pas bavarder avec toi aujourd'hi!" Which, for all of you non-french speakers, means "I don't want to chat with you today."

The rest of the day, I felt like I kept talking to myself. Everything was moving in slooow motion, because it's the first hot day since...last summer. Shorts were everywhere, jackets were impractical. The humidity was probably 100%, making softball and Youth & Government a severe pain in the ass.

That's not the only reason why they sucked though. I couldn't focus in either thing, so I ended up just slugging through them. I whine and whine about being tired, but it seems like I'm not going anywhere. I haven't done anything to make me very sleepy. It's not something you think about while you listen to kids drone on and on about 'speakers yielding their time' or 'pro and con speeches.' But it's there. You know what I mean?

I don't even know what I mean. All I know is that there is a nice cool shower waiting for me upstairs, and then a slightly uncomfortable (yet cozy) bed after that.

Adieu.

A Lesson That Needed Re-Learned

Okay. So The Queen learned a very valuable lesson yesterday. You DON'T TALK TO STRANGERS. Obviously, everyone learns this lesson from the age of 5, when your father asks you, "What do you do if some strange man asks you to help him find his lost puppy?" And then, you so enthusiastically respond, "You kick him in his privates and say NOOOOOOOOOO!!" Well, at least that's how I learned. And so when a young woman (couldn't be any older than my older sister) came to my door yesterday and asked questions about when my mother would be home, questions about the other kids in the neighborhood...I did the completely WRONG thing to do. I answered her questions and thought nothing of it. I didn't think her out-of-state license plates were all that threatening. I didn't think that her black (with polka dots) galoshes (similar to these ) were all that threatening. I figured she was just another one of those annoying Youth For Christ advocates asking if I w...

Not the way I say it. Say it with me, LetItGo.

Do yourself a favor. Don't get involved with guys that have girlfriends. A short, messy history, fast forwarded to now... I work with this guy who likes me a lot. I like him a lot. Seems innocent enough, right? Well of course, he has a girlfriend. I say we can be friends, but I cross lines and break rules. He crosses lines and breaks rules. I'm a dirty mistress. I'm trying to end it, now, before anyone else (besides myself) gets hurt (mainly his girlfriend) but he won't... fucking ...LetItGo!
