Rootbeer Tastes Like Candy
Wow! So it has been more than a month since I have last posted anything. I know you all are wondering what is going on in my life, but actually there is almost nothing at all going on with me. I am no longer at school and I've had no luck yet finding my own little place. I am still searching though and I can't wait until it is my turn to leave the nest--for real this time. I have actually been doing a lot of reading, but sadly no writing because the charger to the machine i write with is missing. And saddest of all up until the end of last week I had done absolutely no crafting! ;( I do have some clay at my disposal now so that should last me for awhile. Well, I did say almost nothing. Yes, alas I have a few friends that I have hung out with over the past month and a half,and I am so very glad to have them. Last saturday was my school's anual street fair that they hold during homecoming weekend. I stayed over with a friend and got to see some people whom I hadn't seen since last May. It ended all too soon and I miss them, but I know I wil see at least some of them again sometime soon =D And essentially, that's what I've been up to. Sorry for the long time away, but it isn't much fun to report on nothing teehee. ttfn, I may yet have more to report later :0)

Fractured rainbows
When the world explodes,it is in silence with yawning colors. First reds and yellows like bright flames, then greens and blues and purples like swirling mists. Explosions, colisions, blending and bleeding. Bleeding, boiling, dripping, raining. Raining raining color. Sharpening crimsons and emeralds breaking, separating prisms. Prisms like fractured rainbows; all the colored light.

With His Teeth Dear
The smile, the smiles.
Too far, too close.
Time again to hide; to pull everything in.
Lest the blade's wind get too close.
Time to pull everything around me close and hold tight.
And yet there is still the smile.
Too far, too close.
Time again to hide; to pull everything in.
Lest the blade's wind get too close.
Time to pull everything around me close and hold tight.
And yet there is still the smile.

To The Singing Of The Crickets
Has it been that long really? Hmm, well I suppose it has. Well, I'll try to post more often, though I can only post so much when there is nothing going on.
So, right here right now I am listening to the sound of the cricket chorus, and contemplating my life. It would seem that I am getting ready to move from the place that has for the most part been my home for the past four years. Of course I knew it was coming, but I was hoping to have a better exit plan than I seem to just now.I dislike uncertainty because to me it is one form of not having control. As a psych major I am compelled to point that Freud had some things to say about control, but then he had something to say about most things.In any case, I do like to be in total control where I am concerned.
Yes I can be terribly indecisive about things and for most things I am very adaptable and go with the flow,but there are some aspects I prefer to keep a tight rein on. This Is probably the number one reason I've never experimented with drugs.
So of course not havinga definite plan is making me anxious. We shall see. I may yet have no cause to worry

Have Much Coco and Happiness
So I decided that I wanted hot chocolate tonight. It is cool enough not to be unbarable and with my fan on it is even a bit chilly.
Yesterday I went to see shakespeare on the common with some friends, good times were had by all. They did Othello which I had read before, but never seen. This now makes four Shakespeare plays that I have seen, two of which I had previously read before and six I have read alltogether. I really think I should make a habbit of going to more Shakespeare since his plays were never really meant to be read--except maybe by the actors. Also it's free so how can you lose?
I think I want to find a movie to watch now. Off to enjoy my coco, enjoy your evening!

Boiling Ideas
O my gosh I know what I want to make next. Well actually I've got a nice piece of black fur that I'm trying to decide whether to make a cat or a scunk with. I am leaning toward scunk since I've made cats before and already have a black one. All this however, is beside the point. I've got a new idea and it just now hit me. Because it's so hot and I don't have AC I've been keeping my windows open and can hear all the crickets. Then it hit me, I want to make a stuffed cricket! I've never made a stuffed bug before and it could be fun to try. The best part would be if I could get it to chirp. I do have cricket sound effects on my computer, but short of recording it--which would probably make for horrible sound quality--I wouldn't know how to get it on to a button. Well, I can worry about all that later, as I am not even sure I have all the right matterials yet. Other than that, there hasn't been much to report of late. have a nice night, and listen to the crickets when you go outside!

Sleep Sleep And More Sleep
I've mentioned before how much my sleep schedule has been thrown off this summer. It's strange because I can't seem to right myself. I could not sleep at all one night, be up all day doing some sort of activity then get back to my room and sleepfor a little bit, then still be tired the next day. So then of course the cycle never get's righted.
*sigh* So I am of course up trying to find things to do while the rest of the world is sleeping. I tried watching old movies, but I couldn't find very many online and I can't watch DVDs. During the day however, I have no problem at all sleeping. In fact, sometimes I feel like an olympic sleeper. lol Not sure I could get a metal for it though. But even then my sleep is broken up in to segments and I can't sleep for more than two hours with out waking up, however briefly, in between.
I really must find something to keep me awake during the day, or else find something other than reading to pass the time at night. O when will it end, when will it end?
***In other news, designer cats are quite fascinating. And I'm really not sure how I feel about this Anne Baker lady who seems to have had a hand in some of them.
