Don't send in the Clowns

Hello Mina. Long time yet again, no? Well, that’s my fault. So much has been happening, even when it seems like nothing is happening. Most of the time, I was either so tired I didn’t want to look at the computer, or I just forgot about my journals. And how long it’d been since I’d written in them.

Well, what’s new? According to my last entry I took this in sections...I think I’ll forgo that and just write out in paragraphs like usual. It’s not that it’s something I don’t like doing...I’m justing being lazy for now.

Ok so Health, which is always a big issue with me. Health is always an issue because something’s always wrong. This hasn’t changed. If I were to go through a list of all the things wrong with me, it’d take quite some time, and that’d be mostly because I’d have to pause in between typing to cry at times. My legs feel like they’re getting weaker and weaker. My knees have always given me problems and since Dad and Momie (my grandmother on my dad’s side) always had arthritis, we just left it at that. Know we think it may be a mixture of that and my weight. Last time I checked I weighed nearly 200lbs. Not something I’m proud of, but also not something I could really avoid.

Also in health news, my mom and I (Dad too, when he isn’t getting rid of the ‘bad stuff’) are all on a diet. South Beach diet to be exact. And let me tell you, it’s quite the beach...Low carbs and sugars or at least that’s what Mom has me believing it’s all about. Last week I felt like I was going through detox, but I suppose that’s the point. Mom’s lost two pounds already – she went to the doctor the other day so she got the chance to weigh herself. I on the other hand have no idea. I certainly don’t feel as though I’ve lost any weight or inches. If they’d dig out the exercise equipment and show me how to use it maybe that’d help. I’m gonna have to get on Mom about that.

Work went from wonderful, to torture then back to moderately ok in the time that’s passed. I’m sure I’ve mentioned that I work at the local AMC Palace 10, the local theater. Well, I was going to be moved from the box office because I had gotten written up too many times for being short in too little of a time span. I told Brad (one of our managers –there’s five) that I couldn’t work anywhere else, because of the shin splints and arthritis. Well, he said he’d leave Chris (our head manager) a note to call me the next day. So I waited...and waited and by Saturday, I was some what fed up. So I go down there and ask Chris if I still have a job. And he replies “What do you mean?” so I had to explain what happened with Brad, and he told me Brad didn’t work there anymore (he caught the lobby on fire or something the very night he told me he’d leave Chris a note). So he was gone, so I talked to Chris and James ( the Schedule manger) about it, and they said they’d talk to Heather and Mrs. D and get back to me. Another week passed. I went down to the office on Tuesday and asked Heather what was up. She had no idea what I was talking about =.=;;; So, I explained the situation and she said I could work Café, and just pull up a stool to sit on when I wasn’t weighting on customers. So, I said I was cool with that and she said she’d talk to Chris and James and get back with me. Another week passed. I went to see Chris Saturday, and he informed me that James had forgotten to put me on the schedule. By the time the whole thing was done, it’d been about four weeks between the time I’d last worked till the time I worked last Saturday! (Saturday, March 6, 2004.)

School is a beach too. I have all the courses I said I’d have in the last entry – Business English, Word, Accountings 1250, and Accounting 1300. Word is fun, and I learn a lot from that class. Business English is alright, but I wish someone would’ve thought to move the class to some time other than 7:30 a. m. (it’s hard enough with going over Business English, but at 7:30?) The two accounting courses are the beach. Mr. Samuel is as grueling, annoying, and hard to learn from as he was before, only it’s worse because we have him for TWO accounting classes at once >.< I just keep thinking that if I pass these two accountings and then take Accounting 1400 and 1500 in the summer semester I wont have to worry about Accounting any more. Which is enough motivation to make me endure...though sometimes I do ask myself ‘Why ;_; ?”

MMEQDB has been updated! *crickets chirp* Yeah, yeah I know. No one cares. The update is a good and a bad thing. Since this is my diary, why don’t I tell you why *grin*. Well, it’s a good thing ‘cause it really needed to be updated. I had so much stuff I’d been working on that wasn’t really ‘up’ and I was more than happy to show that off to everyone. It’s a bad thing, because I’ve already decided what type of thing I want to change that’ll be in the next update. Maybe, one day, I’ll get it to where I think it’s fine and doesn’t need any changing...but for now, it’s always changing and evolving. But it keeps me off the streets.

Also, in related news, my twin and I keep talking about EQII. And let me tell you the more I hear and see about EQII the more I want EQII. Of course it’s finding out what the specs are for the game and what my computer has and can do that’s got me really antsy. But my dad already said he’d help me out with it if I needed the help which is cool.

Another thing in EQ news, my EQRPG books collection has gone up again. I now own: The Temple of Soluesk Ro, The Players Handbook, the Game Master's Guide, Monsters of Norrath, and Realms of Norrath: Freeport. Of course there’s still a lot of stuff I want to get, but I’m holding off on it for right now. I’m trying to buy some of the anime I’ve got stacked up in my wish list so that I can stop drooling over it. My wish list is huge and I really wanna stop waiting around and start buying some of the stuff for myself again...but I’m just gonna buy one anime box at a time this time ‘cause I can’t afford much else =.= Of course since the list is so vast (I have 7 pages of stuff and 160 items after all) it’s hard to nominate what I want to buy first. I’m gonna buy the first season of Robotech (also known as Macross) soon. I also put the three seasons of Hercules in there – I used to be a huge Hercules fan – and so that increased it a bit. But hey, it’s my ‘wish list’ after all.

The only other thing to report is that I’m trying to think up a new quiz to put up at Quizilla. I already have one up, but as a friend of mine pointed out, it’s EverQuest. She, obviously, doesn’t play EQ. So there you go. So, I’m going for an Anime-ish one this time around. But whatever.

That’s all this time around, Mina. I’ve typed myself tired. And I’m sure you’re sick of reading by now. Drop a line, or leave a comment if you want. Sometimes it’s the little things that make the difference.
