I need to start keeping a pen and paper by my bed. I have crazy thoughts running through my head all night these days. I am trying to develop ideas and theories for my classes and essay proposals and presentations and final papers…..i think that 75% of these crazy epiphanies that i experience half asleep are bulshit non-existent thoughts….but in the off change that i solved some brilliant problem in my sleep (that i then forget when i wake up) I should probably try and write this shit down. train myself to make sleep notes. If anything, I will be very entertained with what I thought/wrote still half asleep. I need a night book! My brain does not stop racing these days, something i just want to put it on hold and not worry about thinking for awhile. Drinking doesn’t do that, unfortunately. March will be the month of nightmares. April will hopefully the month of sighs and sleep.

seriously if i ever make it through this masters in english i will be the king of the world!

went for a lil skate on the river late this afternoon. due to trying to tie my skates tight enough i now have lace burn on my fingers and it hurts!

the floor of my apartment is shaking…. did someone in the building get surround sound? it’s redic!

all the good pics are on my other computer 5 feet away, 5 feet too far.

watching bobsleigh

anyone check out this chatroulette? its crazy, it makes me very, very uncomfortable. Have to go on it with disguises on.

brain gone. 1 day on reading week left…..booooooooooooooooo

didnt even make it out to festival this year. i am tired. i am still hungover from thursday…….

there was an ice bar. that went badly… i mean it was super fun but then i ended up watching figure skating through a window and yelling at patrick chan…calling him a cocky asshole….a quad doesnt make the man! psheaw! thats when things got messy. some bad singing on band hero….which made no sense to me…. i am a rock band girl who can get like 99% on expert on kids in america lol….. then i snuck out of the party and the cabbie was trying to haggle with me. he cured my hiccups of 2 hrs when we hit a huge bump and went flying. yesterday was a write off….today wasnt much better….i changed from sweatpants….into sweatpants….parm popcorn anyone?

I am tired this morning! Rad’s alarm (ipod touch) alarm didnt go off this morning, even though it was set. So he woke up 10 mins before he had to leave for work….so I had to make my own coffee this morning, which is very difficult when you are still asleep. The cats are going insane this morning! Can’t they wait until I am more awake! Geeez! Need the head fog to clear so I can read my (unrealistic?) goal of reading the entire English Patient today. My mind did not stop thinking last night, that’s why I am so tired. We were given our assignment sheets for our final essay and essay proposal in class last night and my mind has been going full speed since, trying to figure out what to write about and how to go about doing it…. (I am thinking along the lines of Trauma, mourning, and tattooing as my general topic area, so if anyone knows any good literature that fall into that category, give me a shout!) But before I can even start wrapping my head around that assignment, i have a presentation to prepare for that class and an essay for my graphic witness course to construct – so those are my main tasks of the next week (aka Reading Week aka a week without the agony of class!!!)! The next half of the semester is going to be brutal! So many assignments (3 presentations, 2 essay proposals, 3 essays, plus readings and being prepare for class discussion) to do before April 7! I start to feel nauseous when i think about all i have to do! But something to look forward to is…… my birthday L.A>Coachella trip!!!!!! woot! Rad and I are heading to LA the night before my 25th birthday and then are headed to Coachella music festival! It’s going to fuckin wicked! So pumped!  We booked the trip last weekend and got an amazing deal on a flight! So pumped! Okay now i’ve got to get pumped for the day…ugh….where’s that coffee…..

I love how someone got to this blog by googling “brain maggie in a relationship minneapolis”

I am hiding under a rock today. Not fun times in class last night. Can’t/don’t want to get into it…ugh! At least it’s the (working) weekend? Tonight is sushi and watching weeds seaon 3 night….ummmmmm can’t wait!! thursday are the best because it’s the first night of the week that I dont have night class and by the time it’s 8 pm it’s like wow it’s still early and we dont have to go to bed! And rad has been getting fri/sat off for the last while. oooo sounds like he’s home! fun times begin…..now!

I have left this blog in shambles! No colour, no personality, no updates! Geez louise! Well school has taken over my life again it seems! I’m burnt out, stressed to the max, and just inching to the finish line that is July 28…. ugh! I dont want to bitch or complain….so here’s some cute cat pics?
