Convincing myself that I do still want to go places and do things is sometimes like convincing a stray cat that what it really wants to do is have a bath: a combination of it'll feel good once you're there and it won't take long to be over with and hold still and take it like a man, you pussy.

It's stupid, because I love the people I'm going with, and intellectually this will be a fun and interesting experience.

It's just, apparently the rest of me sees only "time I could have spent writing".

Even though I wouldn't have written anyway because my hands are still sore as fuck.

So Breakfast at Tiffany's went really well until I started rewriting it in my head, with Yuffie as Holly Golightly, and then I just cackled a lot.

So much fun, though. XD I miss those guys.

Other moments of hysteria:
- Last night I woke up shrieking and beating at my own head, convinced that there were bees in my hair.
- Yesterday I thought, "WHO NEEDS BEES ANYWAY. T_T" ...and then went and made honey sandwiches. The irony of this was not lost, and I promptly had a laughing fit in the kitchen.
- My grandmother called me today to tell me that I should turn on Dr Phil immediately because there was a girl with one breast bigger than the other and it was nothing to worry about but they were going to Fix Her. I HAVE NEVER LAUGHED SO HARD.

I think my uni friends make me wittier. I cannot remember any of them, but I know I made three or four decent jokes tonight. I'm not sure when I started noticing these things, but apparently I notice now. Go figure.

For the record, when I made that last post, I was completely sober. XD Just... totally unable to think straight due to 39 hours without sleep, and about three weeks of failing to sleep properly on any regular basis.

(Also, this is just how hanging out with people makes me speak. XD In very long rambling sentences. Uni has destroyed my ability to be concise - take heed.)

I would like to reiterate when awake that Sam is the most adorable drunk in the entire world and I never thought I would see a tutor be that... cuddly. XDDD I mean, Alasdair is cuddly, but he's cuddly-looking normally. Sam does not usually look like a particularly cuddly bloke. XD HE WAS SO PAINFULLY ADORABLE. I hope he doesn't get into serious trouble with people buying him drinks because of that. He's like. He's like ZACK. It was hysterical.

Anyway, today I am apparently going shopping for clothing to wear to the engagement party, since my grandmother called last night all I HAVE THE SHIRT (being a shirt she ordered from some fucking store like months ago that they had to send up from somewhere else and it has beads on it and colour me afraid now oh god) and we all know that I do not in all probability want to wear this shirt anywhere ever in the history of the world.

...wow, that was a legitimately long sentence.

Anyway. Having started the day with a nightmare about a swarm of wasps, I am off to shower and make ready for a shopping trip. Thankyou and most likely goodnight.

[EDIT] Except for a brief run back to the computer to say OH MY GOD, BLEACH 334. *flails wildly* OH MY GOD. And I thought I didn't particularly care about that person. OH MY GOD. Although it remains to be seen how exactly allegiance will shake down... holy shit.

(Also, I feel really shallow for liking so many Arrancar purely because of their designs. XD But I really like Sun-sun!)

[EDIT] And... I know I can't really afford it but I want to give EK a few commissions to work on so's she won't starve or go crazy. I am curious as to what she'd make of Ban, because... well, I have a feeling. (Apparently no one is allowed to draw Hiru but me, Tina, Wyrren, and Meat Bamboo, idk. XD Sanga is free to whore.) They're only sketches, but that's the way I like them. XD So, um. *tries to think who else she could afford to get drawn*

omfgsotired. uhhh. about to go to bed, but, um, today I:
worked 12.5 hours
went to omalleys after work to say goodbye to dan who is going to live in nz
went to meet writing peeps at pub (ric's???) in valley for post-gala drinks only without much drinking as i drank about one third of a corona

things discovered today:
lg microwaves are fucking heavy
megan is kind of a total lazy bitch sometimes re."oh just do it on g.e." NOTE: NO ONE HAS EVER TAKEN ME THROUGH G.E. AT ALL EVER ANYWHERE AND IT IS NOT APPROPRIATE TO LEAVE ME FLAILING WHILE YOU GO PIN UP TINSEL
sam? sam my tutor? sam my tutor is possibly the most adorably happy drunk in the ENTIRE WORLD. just saying.

i am not drunk or even tipsy because as mentioned one-third beer does not a drunk girl make but fuck damnnnnnnnnnnn tired cannot rant properly about work kind of hate allen and yet have cameraderieafduefhs thingie over i don't know games and occasionally, well, no, games. too tired for capitals.

no really sam is like the most adorable drunk in the world. happy cuddles. from a tutor who always kind of just looked at me funny. it was a bonding moment. XD i sort of... lol'd. at great length.
