Murphy's Law

Anything that CAN go wrong WILL in fact go wrong.

*Deep Breath*

I figure if I just breathe, and stopping looking at the big picture, and just tackle one problem at a time, eventually I will get through it all... Maybe if I just pretend to smile, eventually, I will mean it!

So it's a no-go for Moncton tomorrow. Not because we couldn't find a fourth, oh-no. It's because the car we were taking is not available. In fact. It has been totalled. No car at all. But everyone is safe and that is for sure the most important thing. Cars can be replaced. Lives, unfortunately, cannot be.

Only a psychologist, as talented as I am, can understand me.

TGIF! Whattaweek! So glad it's over... not that the weekend's gonna be much better. Actually I probably have the same amount of work to get done, just a third of the time! That's ok, though. Busy is probably good this weekend. Keep my mind occupied. I almost did something totally regrettable last Tuesday, and I fear that it still might happen if my brain is given too much free time! Hehe. Even now I'm still thinkin' about doin' it :)

So, probably headind to Moncton Sunday... Looks like I'm gonna be the third wheel. Bah. Two's company, three's a crowd. Isn't that the old saying? Well, let's just hope we find a SUITABLE fourth. Sigh. What are the chances?

It's Lent again... time once again to give something up for forty days... I haven't decided yet... And it's Friday... Should probably do that tres soon :)

Well, I guess this is enough procrastinating. Back to the books!

Roses are red, violets are blue, I have MPD, and so do I!

Ha ha. Little psych joke. Possibly not funny. But really hits the nail on the head. Been mood-swinging tres much this week, it will be nice to see Friday :)

The list of things that I need to get done just keeps on getting longer. It will be interesting to see if I MAKE it till next week!

I gotta get thru this, I gotta get thru this!

A-ha, but there is a light at the end of the tunnel. I ordered my grad ring today. Everything is getting more and more real (Is that possible?).

And then?

Who knows?

Not me, that's for sure! Guess I won't worry about that bridge until I have to cross it...

When your best just isn't good enough...

Maybe it's just the day... Maybe it's me. I don't know. One way or another, something's gonna have to give. And it looks like it's gonna have to be me...

Back to the old routine...

So, here I am, once again. Back at good ole UPEI. Slightly frustrated. Spent A LOT of time studying for a midterm tonight that I just found out is only worth 10%. Sigh. At least I ought do well on it :)

And, beyond that. I've been trying to rationalize why it happens that when you want to find someone you can't, but when you want to avoid someone, you run right into them... Something to think about...

These last weeks have been quite trying for me, what with everything that's been going on. And God's just up there playing his little video game this week... Let's see how much I can throw at her before she breaks. Here's the newsflash. I'm not gonna break. No matter what else gets thrown my way in the coming weeks, I will NOT break. I WILL make it through with flying colors.

*Playgirl of the Southwestern* Hey Romeo, Let's go down to Mexico!

Today is the official last day of Spring Break. Yesterday was one of those days when I didn't get a second to myself. Today, I have to get caught up on everything I put off all break :)

I think I need to get away from here for just a little bit... I don't know where... I don't really care! A nice long road trip would just feel really good right about now... Good Friends... good music... What more could you ask?!

Snow! Snow! Snow!

Well, after 75 cm of snow has fallen, the roads are once again passable. Ironically, with all the snow the Winter Carnival tomorrow has been cancelled. Hmm... Snow = Winter. Snow + Winter = No Winter Carnival. Sigh. Maybe I'm just tired and don't quite get it. I was quite much looking forward to it after spending 24+ hours inside.

Let it snow...

Wow. Snow. Snow. And more snow. Looks like I'm going to be stuck in here for a few more hours than initially anticipated. After 5 hours of no power and plenty of Scrabble, Mad Gab, and studying by candle light, I am full of cabin fever!

La-a-a

What is it about a song that brings back sooooooooo many memories? It's funny how that works. I was just minding my own business today when this song came on the radio... and all of a sudden my mind went blank. It took only seconds to transport me back in time. What an amazing phenomenon. Too bad ya gotta take the bad memories with the good...

Every Cloud has a Silver Lining...

I am officially sick of being the consolation prize. 'Nuf Said.

Fat Bald Men

So, I spent yesterday watching sappy movies. Haha. Nope, actually I sat down to watch the Scream trilogy, (How much further away from "Valentine's Day" can you get?) but ended up only watching the first one. I am so not a scary movie person at all. After that I watched Practical Magic. What a great movie. Seriously. Every man to fall in love with these girls dies a horribly tragic death. Hmm... never happened to me, but I have been noticing that most of the guys I have dated are getting fatter and balder. Coincidence? I like to think not. Mua-ha-ha.

Sigh... That Day Again

That infamous day of St.Valentine's has rolled around again. I can't think of a more useless "holiday." If you're not seeing someone, it serves as yet another reminder of that fact. And, you spend the day hashing over the past relationships of the year eating cookie dough ice cream and trying to figure out just what's wrong with you, and why you're spending this day alone. If you are seeing someone, it is a defining day. It can only cause trouble. Cause what if you feel one way, and he feels another? What if you both feel the same way except you're just on different wavelengths? Why do you have to give each other anything, anyway? If you love each other, why do you need a special day to say that you do? Hmm... what a senseless day. Still, It's hard not to imagine my knight in shining armor rescuing me from the day...

Friday the 13th...

I'm not too superstitous, but I must admit that the thought of Friday the 13th kind of freaks me out. Hence, I cancelled everything I had planned for the day and stuck to some nice, safe, mundane, activities with virtually no chance of any bad luck occuring. However, in hindsight, this may not have been the best idea... I mean, in lots of horror movies, the girl who gets killed first is in a "safe" place. Just a thought. Sigh. Sounds like a possible lack of sleep tonight.
