Well, today my family and relatives went to the beach. I wanted it to be relaxing..but I ended up waking up because some stupid preteen boys threw sand in my face continously. There was lots of food...♥ PS If you readers have time, totally check out the butterfly effect.. I love this concept! Time pradoxes aren't half bad either! (I must be speaking in some nerdy langauge you say, LOL.) 

I made mulled cider and pumpkin pasta for lunch today, inspired by greyling   and metamorphage . But it's 83 degrees out. I'm overwarm in a t-shirt and berks. The cider is tasty, but doesn't...makes me sleepy. California is a stupid place. On the other hand, maybe this year I try wearing one of those sexy Halloween costumes that I've never bothered with because I'd freeze to death.

Yesterday sucked in more than one way. Mainly because Elizabeth left, and I don't know when I'll see her again. I mean, you can say all you want that you want to see each other often and all that, but...really sad, and where I sat alone at the end of the table, I wished that Elizabeth had been there to bounce ideas of. My Mum's not exactly ideal for that, and neither is Kathy. It was not a good day

I recently learned that my parents split up after 30 years of marriage. It was apparently (pun not intended) one-sided and extremely ugly and I really am not sure on how to deal with the knowledge. Mostly...it to you if you're a fan of slightly-dark fantasy parables in the vein of 80's Henson movies. I learned a lot about myself over the past few weeks. Mainly, that escapism is my new religion

Friday night, Brendan took me to a midnight showing of the Rocky Horror Picture Show. I wanted to save my "virginity" for Thomas and Ashley, so I didn't take the pledge. There was a raffle being held,...ache. I'm so tired of living in Modesto in the first place; add that to the fact that the love of my life happens to live in the place that I believe I am destined for. I don't want to go home. =

i keep wondering if santa cruz is where i want to be. it's a great place, but i don't really make any use of it because a lot of what makes it fun costs money. the trouble is, i don't know where i'd want...to do about that... well... i've run out of things to say directly, so i guess i'm done. just thought i'd post some sort of check-in. that, and i think i needed to write something. alright. the end

I think the Science Library computer lab is haunted at UC Santa Cruz.. At my first shift there were a handful of customers on several stations throughout the night. Some people filtered in and out, but...print job is coming from on the IC consultant website and checked out PC station #11..........except it was logged out and no one was in the aisle. I seriously think this place is haunted Anthon

Today I woke up among the redwoods, hiked 12 miles with blistered feet and sore legs, and ran into the ocean wearing only my "We Support Women" sports bra and floral granny panties. I spent the weekend...should probably get in better shape before I attempt it again, though. Maybe I really did just need to get away from Cornell to start seizing opportunities and being excited about possibilities again

THREE WEEKS! updates? Let's start off with school. I have an F in two classes and one D, but the rest are A's. I have a D in chemistry, and an F in History and Trigonometry. My trigonometry teacher called...not "incredible." They closed an exhibit at four when they were supposed to close at five and grrr... I really liked the albino alligator. It's name was Claude. He's my wallpaper on my cellphone ;

Praise be unto Cthulhu (may he devour your soul first), it's Friday. Flying below the radar of most people out here, my alma mater, Georgetown, is having an outbreak of norovirus, which can be transmitted... Please? Just for fun?" Off to Santa Cruz' Open Studios art tour this weekend. Always a good time. And a nice chance to get out of San Francisco and see Ma and family. Now if I can just make it to 4 PM..
