Ah. lol.
Same wavelength.

Knew what, Mr. Psychic?

It's got catchy music :P

Rebuttal.

Pish-tosh.

And DD needs to be thrown into our arena *waggles brows*

Well, I wouldn't mind hanging up my cape and top hats in exchange for some swords and sandals. I wonder where Gerard Butler and Russel Crowe are at... *daydream*

What, not a fan of Rocky Horror Picture Show?

Sure. Why not? You look like the dashing type

Okay, well then, I don't envy you at all. It sounds like you need a hot cup of tea and a back rub. Good luck! :S

I have no idea. I'm debating watching Shrek 4 or 28 Days Later. Something tells me I'll probably be picking cartoon ogres over super-fast running zombies. @_@

Nope. I'm sitting in and watching spooky films. I'm down with the sickness, yo.
How about you? How was your Halloween?

Happy Halloween to you too!

Nah, once I got into the hospital, everything was calm and procedural. They checked me over, stitched me up and sent me on my way. I think what initially had everyone worked up was that a) the amount of blood, b) no one saw what really happened, c) no one knew how long I was out for. d) I've never had a fainting spell like that before.

My parents were fine. They just shook their heads and my mom basically scared me about this leaving an unsightly scar. I think it looks rather cool. I'm like the bride of frankenstein or something. lol

The only thing that's pissing me off is my jaw. It's frackin' hurts whenever I chew.

lol. No, I'm fine. Just had a disagreement with the floor. I went in to get some bloodwork done at the walk in clinic yesterday. After they took my blood, they told me to go sit down and make sure I was okay before I left the building. I never made it to sitting down. I woke up on waiting room floor, people hauling me up and one of the doctors freaking the heck out and telling me I needed to go into the emergency room for stitches and x-rays because I banged up my chin and possibly injured my neck. I'm perfectly fine. I just have 10 stitches to show for the whole ordeal.

I've been alright I suppose. I've been doing alot of planning for my future, seeing as how I need to be starting college within the next couple of semesters. You?

Gracias. Good seeing you too, it's been awhile.

Msn?

Try more chagrinned than offended. I know you didn't mean anything by it, so no personal offense taken.

And it sounds like you're in the same boat as I am. I'm kind of moving away from self-analysis and introspecting toward simply welcoming the experiences as they come instead of needing all the facts before I make a decision. It's really stifled me, as I suspect it might have stifled you. Analysis-paralysis, and all that, right?

I think you've got the practical side of things down pat. Yes, it's unfortunately very boring to be cut and dry like this--get a degree, get a job, make some money-- but it's a necessity. If this is not what you want to do with your life, then simply look at it as a means to an end and take the time to really figure out where you want to go and slowly start to align yourself in that direction. You don't need to live life in grand gestures and big decisions. It's the little steps that bring you joy that truly count; and the little steps that don't bring you joy, well, they don't matter. Funny that is, eh?

Anyway all of this is a freshly acquired perspective, by the by. lol. If I had known this, I would have taken this advice ages ago.

What are you looking at in terms of potential directions after you're finished with your degree?

I don't think you should let yourself be defined by anything, if you want my honest opinion. Whatever you do, do it because you want to and because it's in line with your values, not other people's reactions to it.

Just going to my career counselor today (got a new one) and running some errands. I'm also massively regretting my decision to give one of the other campaign volunteers my phone number. The guy is nice and all, but... he really can't take a hint that I'm not interested. It's almost creepy how often he calls.

How about you? What's today's to-do list?

Thank you. And no, no, this was volunteer work. I start my actual job on Nov 15.

Done!
It was totally dramatic. At first, we thought we lost (by 66 votes, no less) and it was really down and sad after-party... especially since the opposition had called to gloat. But the media had been too hasty to report the results; two of the machines at the polling stations within the ward had broken down and hadn't sent the final figures to city hall. We ended up having the last laugh by roughly 900 votes.

It was glorious!
