I hate it when my face turns a brilliant shade of embarassed red. It doesn’t happen very often. When people try to embarass me, I simply revell in the noteriety, making their insinuations even bigger than they planned. I love it when someone gets embarrassed themselves while trying to make me blush. I like to say that the only person who can embarass me is myself. Even when I do something stupid, I’m usually able to turn it into a joke. But tonight that wasn’t really possible. I attended a Seder, the traditional Jewish Passover feast, put on by a…
It’s a bad feeling to wake up in the morning and think, do I have a paper due today? I try not to do this very often, but it happened, nonetheless, yesterday at 8:16 a.m. I habitually set my alarm for 8:15 every Tuesday and Thursday mornings, but it takes me a minute or so to exit dreamland and achieve sentience in reality. The next thought was equally abrupt but not quite as disturbing: perhaps I have a test today. Then I remembered taking a test in that class the last time we met. No, there would be no test.…
I registered for the Fall Semester today. Usually the excitement of picking new classes to take in the coming months is outweighed by the annoyance I feel at the red tape one has to go through in order to achieve this task. I remember registering for my second semester of college. I talked to my advisor, stood in line at the registrars office where they told me, in a very haughty tone, that I needed his signature. I walked across campus to go back to him, got him to sign it, waited in line, and was told that I needed…
I feel a lot better than I did about an hour ago. It may have to do with having eaten supper. Or perhaps because I laughed during meal time. Maybe it’s because my sister sprained, and possibly, broke her ankle today, and I’m not in as much pain as she is. Pain. It’s not that bad, really. I’m upstairs in the new room we recently built. Our new found Australian friends left today, so the room, and therefore the computer in it, is now free. This is good because my brother is on the computer downstairs. I’ve got the incandescent…
Oh yeah. Today is April Fools Day. I’d forgotten. However, I did end up playing a joke on someone, almost inadvertently. My sister was riding her horse today when Katie started bucking and threw her off. She’s had many falls, but this one was severe. She sprained her ankle fairly badly and maybe even broke it. My sister will have to go in to get it X-rayed tomorrow morning. And, no, I didn’t do anything to make the horse buck. Sickos. My sister’s friend Denise called up today to talk to her. I knew it was Denise because my sister…
