That's it, I'm never sleeping again
I HATE SPIDERS. So I was going about my own business about an hour ago, laying in bed reading before I went to sleep when—and I kid you not—I heard a little pitter-patter of feet. I turn to my left to see what the hell it is, and it’s the biggest spider I have ever laid eyes on in my entire life. And it’s in bed RIGHT NEXT TO ME. I’m surprised I didn’t scream. Anyhow, I jumped off my bed like a lunatic and hauled butt out of there and made my mom come kill the damn thing for me. As one would expect I am now super paranoid that mutant spiders like that fat sucker are now hiding, waiting for me to become complacent before the crawl out and get me. I told my mom that I wanted her to check for more because I was NOT getting back in bed after Spiderzilla had just spooned up next to me. She said those kinds of spiders were solitary. I don't believe her. It probably laid its eggs in my boxspring and now thousands of tiny Spiderzillas are hatching as I type. I'm being overdramatic, but whatever. So my mom goes on to say that they like to dwell in messy areas. Well my entire room is an effing messy area. I have piles of clothes stacked on the floor because I never have time to put them away and my trash can is a disaster area because I never dump it out so it overflows and other random messy things like that. So I had to have an OCD fit and clean all my crap. Of course, this pissed off the other residents of my house because it's almost midnight and they want to sleep whereas I'm stewing in my room feeling my skin crawl and fearing that more spiders craweld into my hair while I was unsuspecting.
There is no way in hell I'm getting any sleep tonight. I will not lay back down in my bed. I'm sitting cross-legged at the foot of my bed [after I removed all of my sheets, blankets and pillow-cases and shook them out and inspected them for the little bastards] and will not lay down near my pillow, because that's where Spiderzilla first reared his ugly head. I would sleep on my floor to avoid ground zero, but I feel like spiders are going to crawl out of the dark corners of my room and find me wherever I go. It's a lost cause. I doubt I will get any sleep tonight. It's just not happening and if I do it will most likely be restless [as if it isn't already, as I'm a recovering insomniac]. I'm just so pissed off that I was so tired and ready to go to bed and now I'm wide awake and know that I won't be able to sleep because the fabric of my shirt or shorts will brush against me the wrong way and I'll jump because I think a spider is crawling up my leg. I feel like I need to go take another shower because I need to wash them off me or something.
This just sucks.
I'll sleep when I'm dead.
I started my Career Explorations internship on Monday. I've been placed at the local library, which is actually pretty cool because I'm a book nerd...but, this library happens to be in the process of moving into a new facility, therefore as the 'intern' I'm the official book-unpacker-and-reshelver. So for the last couple of days I've been surrounded by a sea of cardboard boxes and out-of-order books, staring at the small catalouge numbers printed on the spines trying to get them shelved in the proper order. It's tiring, but fun. It's kind of mindless after a while so I can just relax and sit there and shelve books. It kind of sucks when they stick me with an elderly volunteer and make me help them. I'm a bit of a loner when I work, so it sucks when I have to be the 'spry young'n' who totes all of the boxes and can actually see the tiny catalogue numbers. Thankfully that's only happened twice.
Anyways, this internship basically takes up all of my afternoons, and goes until I have to leave and head over to dance or to work. So I officially have NO TIME to myself anymore. Which is good, because if I'm extremely busy then I can't sit here and stew and be bored anymore. I like being busy but I kind of feel drained already because I have had no time to myself. And this stupid time change is doing nothing to help me feel well-rested. Oh well. I'll live. There's a Starbucks right down the road and I'm friends with one of the employees so he can make me some coffee and we can chat if I ever need a caffeine IV. :)
heart surgery
Ok, so I need prayers for my 3 month old second-cousin, he has a pinched aorta and is having open heart surgery this morning. Supposedly this surgery is routine and everything should go fine, but he's just a baby and we're all worried. Thank you guys.
snow is a four-letter word
What about snow takes away people's ability to obey basic traffic laws? I just don't understand. I almost got in an accident on the way home from work because some idiot couldn't merge properly. And then some jerk tried to make a right turn around me as I was waiting at a red light and almost took of my mirror! So, I have to ask, what the heck makes people think just because it's snowing they can drive like freakin' maniacs? Argh. I haven't even been driving for 2 years now and I can drive better than those idiots. Geez.
i need to stop listening to MCR
it's making me not do my homework. I just keep rocking out to My Chemical Romance and I neglect my English papers. But anyways, I feel sort of like I've bitten off more than I can chew. I mean I have a ton of things to do and so the things I love have taken a back seat. Because I have school, work, dance, I'm doing the sound for a play at my school, I'm trying to apply for scholarships, I still need to find a successor for the tech booth at youth group, and a plethora of other things and I don't have time to read or write or watch anime or anything. It's rather tragic. I wish I could just freeze time right here and finish the book I'm reading, write a poem or two, rewatch Boogiepop like I've been planning on for about a month now... Ugh. I should've treasured my free time when I had it.
