well.

i decided that i should try to do some lab work today, so i came into lab.

having been here for almost an hour now, i can categorically say that this was a bad idea.


a really, really, really bad idea.

just even walking to the bus stop caused so much creaking and pain in my joints (well, no actual creaking, but it hurt nonetheless), and now that im here, im so tired and i have no energy to do anything, and im sure i'm contaminating EVERYTHING.

im finishing this digest, running this gel, and im going home, and not moving for the rest of the evening.


god i really hate feeling like this. :(

currently listening to:  the whirring of my fan

 
and so begins a "im so tired and sick, yet no matter how tired i feel i won't be able to sleep" night.

its 10:30, i've only tried being in bed for 25 minutes, but i can tell this already.

 

 

this is not good.  on top of tossing and turning, every part of my body hurts.  its like an ache that starts in the middle of the bone and radiates to the outside.  its like the worst possible kind of ache, and it seems like there's nothing i can do to alleviate it.  one of my nostrils is on permadrip, there aren't enough words to describe how everything aches, and even my hair is sore.

this is poopy. :(


wow!
 
my cousin just got hired by a gaming company in BC!  he interviewed for them last friday and found out today that he got the job!  so fab!
 
he starts august 9!  so exciting!  congrats, pete!

currently listening to:  definitely not the opera (haha, i just wrote oprah) on cbc
 
i so love this horoscope.  this is the libra horoscope for today, from the toronto star:
 
Rest, relax and snooze this weekend. Do no more than you have to and do less than you need to. Indulge in lazy, listless indolence. Conserve all your energy by staying in bed longer than you should. Yes, and eat too much. Refuse to worry. That should be easy for you.
 
 
how fab is THAT.  haha.

ok?  i get it.
 
 
i get it.
 
i know that i'll never be rich.
i know that it'll take me over two years to finish my masters.
i know that nothing will ever work for me and that i'll just run out of luck.
 
i get it, ok?
 
so quit trying to point it out to me over and over and over again.

currently listening to: moneen - pleasantly saying the most terrible things

wow. long time no post!

yesterday was FUN! to start, i got REAL MAIL! REAL MAIL! a fab card from hols. so much fun to read! i haven't got real mail in so long, it was utterly fabulous! i am going to make another card on the weekend when i go home and write back. this pen pal thing is fun, i forgot just how fun it is!

then last night, adrienne came over and we played bbq and watched sex (andthecity) and hung out. mucho good times. hot damn i love a good hamburger. YUM.

not a lot else is new. the boy's birthday celebrations went well last week, we had dinner at marbles restaurant (in waterloo) and then just rented a couple of movies and hung out at my house. very pleasant evening.

i'm coming up with something to make for jen since she's going to be leaving guelph when her job is done! :( that makes me sad. that kid makes me laugh like no other. this may end up being the whole thing, or i may do something else for her too.

anyways, i'm rather hungery. HUNGERY. im going to try to hold off to making dinner til 6. but who knows if i'll last that long. hehehe. i might cave and have a wee bit o' chocolate first

to all who are interested: the new 'my chemical romance' cd kicks some SERIOUS ass. wow. so good. its very not-so-like their old cd, but it is still rather enjoyable.

i need to get back into the swing of music again. i feel like i'm out of it.

anyways. stomach rumbling. i guess i won't make it til 6 after all :

dear giant thunderstorm,

i know you're out there. and i know you want to play. and believe me, i want to play too.

but if you could not play when im walking home this afternoon, that would be great. you see, my shoes, they kind of leak.

don't get me wrong, i'd love to see you. i think you're fabulous.

just not when im walking home.

looking forward to dry feet,
melissa

currently listening to: edge 102 | switchfoot - i dare you to move

wow.

over a whole week, and i haven't written anything here? weird.

truth is, i just haven't felt like it. i dunno. dare i say im growing tired of this blogging culture?

spent the past weekend at the cottage. once again, problems with joints, specifically my left wrist. i blame holding all those cards for canasta, which mom and i learned how to play again (we figured it out about 6 years ago, and have never played it since). had a pretty nice burn on my left arm (thats typically what happens when you drive with your arm out the window in the middle of the day). it was pretty sore on friday/saturday, but is more than bearable now, and just looks plain weird because its not uniform up the arm, there's still some white spots. clearly, i suck at this "even skin tone" thing.

im so tired. *so* tired. there aren't enough words to describe how tired i am, its really ugly. i don't know why im so tired. i've been tested for mono so many times, and its never been that. given that i have no fever or aches/pains (besides my arthritis :P) and i still have energy to move around, i don't think it is mono, and im not going to get tested for it. no one i know has it, so i think its unlikely that i've picked it up somehow. and now that i've said that, i've opened myself up to people to deliver their "i never knew anyone with mono and i still got it" stories. hey, feel free, i've probably heard them all before :)

this weekend is the boy's birthday :) we're going out to dinner on friday night (even though his birthday is on saturday) and then i think we're going to see spiderman 2. tres exciting. i hope he likes what i got him, i'm kind of worried about one part of it, but meh, we'll see. and regardless of what he says, im paying for both dinner AND the movie. :P

well, i should probably go and start reading some journal articles. gotta get refreshed on my info and stay on top of this one gene im working with. it looks like it might pay off and be my whole thesis, but who knows. ta :)






that kind of girl
