Caffeine-Induced Rambling, Again
Dec. 19th, 2006 10:11 amI remembered both things I had to remember today. OMG it's a Christmas miracle.
The only bad thing about this time of year? The absurdity of saying anything good is "a Christmas miracle" gets less and less the closer it gets to Christmas. Poo.
I have my reindeer and my nice new bag. Yay new toys.
I think the kids' diabolical scheme is to give me diabetes. Three of them so far have let it slip what they're getting me for Christmas (although I hadn't expected anything, hadn't thought about it, until I joked to E--- that he always had chocolate [he has a fucking Hershey bar for breakfast every morning. His dad is hot AND health conscious] and never brought any for us and he said he'd be getting us chocolate something for Christmas. And R----- asked if I liked chocolate-covered pretzels today, and K---- asked if I like chocolate, if I like mint, and if I like them together.
Woo-hoo! Diabetes. And one of the moms is making brownies one day this week. That's very sweet of her.
Hey thanks a lot all you New Englanders complaining about the weather. When I went to work yesterday, it was 54 degrees. Today? 37. If the temperature goes back up, no more complaining unless YOU have to wait half an hour for a bus twice a day. The amount of time I'm forced outside, unseasonably warm is A VERY GOOD THING.
I have a test in Environmental Science I didn't study for. Nor have I paid attention to more than half of any class so far. Usually I nap. *sigh* Maybe I can cheat off Jonathan.
I'm running on a large gingerbread latte (whole milk, extra sugar), half a cup of coffee from the cafe here, and I WILL be drinking the other half and another cup from the cafe. So perhaps I can pass the test on merit of my extreme bounciness.
If we didn't have the test today I'd skip. I have a kamillion things to do. If I don't start now/today, this disaster of a room will never be clean by the time it gets checked over so I get the okey dokey to go home. Hopefully the test is the only thing on the agenda so I can speed through it filling in wrong answers and go the fuck home.
The woman who normally works in the cafe here mornings went home early. Which sucks, because by now she knows when I come in and what I order so she usually has it ready. The woman working there now appears to think no one comes in after 9:30, and if I'm lucky there's one sandwich made. I usually get two because by then it's been 13 hours since I last ate.
Oh well.
I'm gonna close this now before I babble much more.
