AUUURRGUGH.
People who are artists do not understand this at all. It's like a fucking foreign language. So let me tell you in no uncertain terms why art is exactly like having diarrhea.
1. It ruins your life
2. It comes at the most unexpected times and catches you horribly off guard
3. It wipes your mind clean of all but one thought which you cannot turn off
That's why I have a shit ton to do (pun intended) but for some reason, no, I had to run out to Rite Aid in my pajamas at 9:30 at night through Second Saturday in order to get a sketchpad and pens. Even the lady at the Rite Aid counter was like, hmmm, art emergency eh?
I hate the way it just takes over your mind-- an idea'll just hit you and run you over like a freight train, and you've gotta get it out right then and there-- I don't eat, I don't sleep, I don't move, and I've never, NEVER felt time go by so fast.
It started back up with writing a few weeks ago. I've been writing about 4,000 words a day every day for the last week. It's insane, I glance at the clock and it says, "2pm," then I glance at it again and it says, "8pm," and I'm like, what? What? And then suddenly I have to be at work.
I thought it was just writing, but no. Now it's drawing too.
I guess you can take the girl out of the art major but you can't take the art major out of the girl.
Ohhhhh.
Help me get a grip. At least I worked out today. I've gotta do laundry, I have an open house tomorrow...it's gonna be a 3am night no doubt.

Guess what?
I'm getting my teeth fixed today so I don't have to end up in "The Big Book of British Smiles!"
How exciting for me, right? I finally got off my lazy ass and signed up for dental insurance! If you hear any power drills today think of me.
There should be more holidays at the end of the week.
Let's play my favorite game, fortunately unfortunately!
Fortunately, it was Veterans Day!
Unfortunately, those assholes at ARC didn't give the day off.
Fortunately, we were doing a lab with Ether!
Unfortunately, I forgot to use the fume hood.
Fortunately, tripping out on Ether gasses is kind of pleasant!
There you go! I also spoke to prodigal roomie Canners. She was having boy troubles and I said, "Canners, there are many fish in the sea. You have a degree in Marine Biology, you must know that."
Then I looked around to see if anyone was listening to my witty reparte, and alas, they were not.

Because I'm in such a great mood because I HAVE A DAY OFF and I am staying in bed all day until I get bedsores or have to pee (and then I am only leaving at strict 1 minute intervals), I am bringing you something that shall light up your life!

Are you sure you want a piece of me?"

You tell 'em Britney! I have no kid on my arm today, because I HAVE THE DAY OFF!!! Heaven has opened up and swallowed me whole.
What have I done today? I have stayed in bed! I'm ate breakfast in bed, I'm napping in bed, I wrote 40,000 words in bed--that's cumulative over this week, today's count is 15,000 (I'm a really fast typer and okay, I cheated because started around 11pm last night and just kept goin'!).
This is the best thing that has happened to me in ever. I'm sure this day will beat my wedding day, the birth of my first child, winning the lottery... In my whole life, bar none. Having this Wednesday off is incredible.
Of course, FUCKING ARC doesn't observe Veteran's day because they're a bunch of ungrateful bastards who don't care about all those stalwart veterans that died so that I would be able to act like a paraplegic today. They died so that I may live! FUCK YOU AMERICAN RIVER! I will burn you to the ground! Goddamn Russian conservative college.
But until 5pm when I will drag myself up to go complete a multi-step synthesis, until then...
My ass is parked right here, unmoving. No screaming. No fits. No equations. It. Is. Bliss.
Love,
A

Yeah, you guys are all pretty much spot on.

Hahahahaha.
Hey, remember that little "problem" I was having? Not the period one, the other one.
Anyway, it mysteriously took care of itself. And I bet I know exactly how!! I wish I had the transcript for it-- I'm gonna write one, posted behind a lock so sign in :D

Me: So wait explain how the pi bonds are oriented again?
My Tutor: Um, well, it's like a cross section, like this. They're at 90 degree angles.
Me: So that's like px and py, what's pz doing?
My Tutor: It's involved in the s bond.
Me:Oh, right. So when there's resonance, the pi electrons are being shared across both bonds?
My Tutor: Yes, exactly.
Me: Wow... I get it... that fits perfectly in all three axis...that's kind of beautiful.
My Tutor: Yeah it is.
[Stare and awkward silence]
I'M PRETTY SURE THAT WAS NERD SEX.
It was hot, as in I was very intellectually stimulated. There was an exothermic reaction going on, and G was definitely negative because it was spontaneous!
My tutor... he's a genius. I'm not saying that to be nice, he's actually a genius. He built his own computer. That's pretty fing cool.
I can't build a computer but I can write songs that crush people's souls into little wads. I guess I'm kinda cool too!

Problem solved!
This is probably what happened: five minutes after I posted that last entry my uterus was checking its iphone for lj updates and was like, "WHAT?? SHE'S COMPLAINING ABOUT ME? BITCH PLEASE!!" and then got to work. So, sorry all the evangelicals who are reading this, the second coming of Christ is not internally involved with me right now. Not right now, maybe later.
Umm...
Iiiiiii have a serious question. So all you deadbeats need to answer me and stop pretending like you're not sitting at home eating chicken wings and hanging on my every word (yeah, I know you.)
Collin's mom friended me on Facebook... what do I do?
I really, really like C's family-- they're some of the nicest people I know, really polite and fun to talk to and they were never anything but warm and accepting of me. I would like to stay in their good graces.
But is that wierd? I mean, I don't have any hidden secrets on my FB page or anything, but should I stay backed-off if I don't want to start drama?
Please give me your wisdom below. I don't wanna have to take this to Jerry but I will! OH I WILL!
I'm off to do a caffeine-extraction lab. How cool am I?

Thinking about picking up a nasty habit.
School is killing me. Worst year in my school history. I'm making D's in all my classes except one. And I don't give a fuck. I'm done. I'm spiritually drained. Mentally fried.
I need a drink. I need a smoke. I need a fuck. I need a sandwich. I need something to take me away even if it's just for a little while. I need years to melt away. I need the past to close. I need a door to open. But I need a key. Where the fuck is my key?!?!?!
Ashes burn.
Love,

Mmmkay, so...
Oops right! TMI don't read this if you're icked out. I'm impossible to ick out. I work with a kid who pukes all the time (even while running!) I'm unmovable.
Anyways, I just wanted to announce that I might be carrying around the next baby Jesus because I officially have not had a period since September 25th.
Thankfully, I haven't slept with anybody so I can rule out 'oh no I'm pregnant' from my list, unless God has been secretly molesting me or someone basted me while I was sleeping (it IS almost thanksgiving!) But where is my little red friend? Where can it be?
I'm guessing it's probably because I was supposed to have it when I got strep throat and my sudden illness just threw everything off.
STILL -- as fucked up as my immune system may be, I was always quite happy that my reproductive everything has always worked perfectly. Really, it all ran like a well-oiled machine, no problems in that department. Now I'm a little pissed.
So, hopefully, uh, everything's all right? I guess time will tell! It's either gonna be nothing, crimson wave, or the next coming of our lord and savior. Take that Michelle Duggar!
On another note, the next person I see in an Ed Hardy shirt I'm going to have to turn a flamethrower on. I am so tired of douche couture. It's like a middle aged fan of Insane Clown Posse threw up on a stoner's "beginning drawing" sketchbook. I fucking hate Ed Hardy so much.

Well, I didn't live fast and die young, I was gone because my Mac's been in the chop shop. Now it's all better, and here's Halloween photos!
