of skirts and cupcakes
Oh, man. I need to lay off the cupcakes, seriously. Next time Adam suggests whipping up 2 dozen funfetti cupcakes with rainbow chip icing instead of just buying ONE SINGULAR CUPCAKE to satisfy my craving, I am going to have to smack him upside the head.
Okay, actually, I'll make happy noises and then proceed to stuff myself with tiny iced cakes. Like I've been doing for the last two days. Because really, who says no to cupcakes? Especially the funfetti and rainbow chip variety?
Not I my friends. Not I.
But for real, something about my current dietary situation needs to change. I've been eating horrendously, partially out of necessity (I had very little food in my house until yesterday, due to lack of money) and partially because I seem to have just stopped caring. But I can feel myself chubbing up a bit, which, as you may imagine, does not please me at all. I want to start exercising again, but I'm pretty limited by circumstances. I can't run because my ankle is still too fucked to take that kind of impact, and I can't afford to join the Y. I'm left with walking or doing an exercise tape of some kind. Now, I have no beef with walking - it gets me to school and around town every day, after all - but I do it enough as is that I'm not particularly interested in doing it as exercise. And videos annoy me. And alternately bore and humiliate me. Ack.
So things are kind of craptacular on the health front, especially with my wisdom teeth coming in and my hands still doing this perpetual itching thing that has me uber-paranoid about another outbreak of The Poison. But everything else is good. Except the money thing. That still sucks. I have none, and I need some, and Jo-Ann Fabrics still hasn't gotten back to me about my application. I called on Sunday and was told that the manager would get back to me this evening. So much for that. I'm going to call again tomorrow afternoon and see what's the what.
But otherwise, things are peachy. School is good, although Western Art is still horrible and 2D is still waaaaaay longer than necessary. Oy. No, seriously. Western Art is awful. My professor seems to have a big hate-on for all of us, and his voice is just... well, as I told Cassie this afternoon, it makes me want to kill babies. Actually it just makes me want to destroy things in general. Manda go SMASH!
Gahd. Tomorrow is Graphic Tech. Dunno what we're doing. Probably layout out our menus in Quark. It shouldn't be too bad. And I can get some chocolate milk from the vending machine during lunch! Nummy good.
I've been crafting lots of things lately. Sewing, mostly. I made a panda skirt, a ruffley cherry skirt, and a Star Wars skirt. All are cute, but the panda is still my favorite. Although the cherry one actually does give it a run for its money. It's just that I'm kind of afraid to wear the cherry one because if I sit in it the ruffles might get all flat in the back. Hrm. I'll try to post pictures sometime soon, regardless.
Anyway, I'm off. Pre-sleep activities are calling.

Wait, there's more!
