Me... I have to raise my GPA by about 0.2 (not so easy if you don't like to talk in class ) in the next 7 semesters to have any chance of getting into law school. And that's just the first requirement... grr...

Starr Polish,
Some days are like that. Some weeks even. Just remember that whatever it is that has you down, it will pass. It may be like gas or kidney stones, but IT WILL PASS. Hang in there.

My mother had pneumonia a while ago and she's still getting over it. The medicine made her irritable though.
I HATE BUGS!!!!!!!!! ARGH. (don't ask; just... don't)

Not following one's morals can be very, very exhausting.. Not only mentally, but also physically.

Why doesn't life just stop sometimes, instead of always being one damn thing after another? I want to go home and do all the nice homely non-things I like doing, instead of the endless things I have to do.

The following statement has been been released by RealJannyPlasticCorp. and its affiliates.
Bllllllooooooooob. The Janny who posts here looks embarressed and says it has nothing to do with him, and that hopefully sunny will understand.

Stay healthy Mirks.
I had a horrible day ... not yesterday anymore. Well, spilt water all over the rune sheets Embladyne had given me, was almost late to glass, spilt a whole glass of soda on myself, almost lost my phone, and then at the end of the day, managed to step on my glasses and break them. At least maybe I can get my mom to get me contacts now... Almost forgot to do my laundry today... Ah... and sometimes being a girl really sucks... Especially when your laundry's not done...

Oh man what a day El! That sucks. Hope it works out for those contacts.
I feel your pain about the laundry. Oh yeah. (Tonight is laundry night! I've got to start signing up for times earlier... )

There appears to be a minor malfunction in my mailprogram and it doesn't send off the attachments despite the fact that I DO download said attachments to the mail.

Those who haven't gotten the Seventh Chapter of the Pyrates and who should get it could perhaps give me an alternate email-adress to which I can send it.
JD & Starr Polish, my mail to u was returned because it somehow was undeliverable. And all other mooters which I send the story to please mail me so that I can remail the chapter to u and hopefully succeed. |

My inbox may have been full. Perhaps try it now?
Vent: Feeling ill, and I'm kind of angry because I was supposed to meet with my RPG group to figure out how I'm going to be incorporated into the story, but I haven't heard from any of them.

VENT:
http://www.chron.com/cs/CDA/ssistory...atures/3045502 "Warner Bros. has created angular, slightly menacing-looking versions of the classic Looney Tunes characters for its new series, dubbed Loonatics and set in the year 2772. Names for the new characters haven't been finalized, but they are likely to be derived from the originals: Buzz Bunny, for example." How can they DO this to me?!
