lykomancer*points up* You know, when I wrote that at the top of my papers in college, Cynthia freaked. It drove her crazy.
Feeling better.
Saw my shrink for the first time this week, and that went well, if somewhat stereotypically. We spent most of the session talking about my mother.
("Yes, and when I was little I used to think that my mother was a vampire 'cause she lived in the attic, I only saw her at night, and she was born with teeth-- superstition states that people born with teeth become vampires. So then... Why are you looking at me like that, Doc?")
Have more days off this next week, and that helps a lot. I'm seriously considering taking next semster off (leave of absense), and doing school full-time and an editorial internship with Women's Press, so that I can get some more expierience in my field, and yes, live off my student loans. Fuck, though...I did the math and realized that it will take TEN YEARS for me to pay off the loans I am recieving just for this year. It makes me want to cry. I don't even know where to begin to rectify my situation.
Anderson-plushie is almost done and rests comfortably on my couch. He needs the collar of his coat trimmed, glasses, his cross, and...hair. Because of the difficulties involved in making the wig-thingie, I currently have neo-Nazi skinhead Anderson. I plan to rectify this as soon as I can get my sewing machine to behave.

Date: 2004-10-09 07:12 pm (UTC)The way to get around them is really to teach. *shrugs* Or to die, but that's an extreme solution, even if it is really far more pleasant than actually paying them off. xD
BTW -- got your phone message today; Jenny's gone for the weekend for her Backpacking class, and I don't have a working phone card that I can find at the moment, so I can't call you back to chat, much as I want to. :( You can always try giving me a call later (before 8-ish? Though, if you want me to be offline later at a certain time, calling real quick to tell me that doesn't hurt :) )
Ah -- check out http://www.nanowrimo.org/
So freaking cool! I'm going to do it just to see if I can -- you should look into it. It's good for productivity and self-esteem to jump right into something like that with a supportive community, without actually having to have real life deadlines or responsibility. And their depressed writer's forum is called "I Hate Myself and I Want to Die", which amuses me greatly. xD
And, because it amused Jenny and might amuse you, our character blurbs for the DDQ strip:
Angela: The Co-proprietress and founder of the DDQ is in direct competition with hide for "worst pun ever" and is known for her dry wit and complete lack of any sense of decency or taste whatsoever. She spends her days overseeing the wayward employees, convincing Gackt that "Casual Friday" really means "Naked Day", and pilfering chocolate soft-serve when she thinks no one is looking.
Jess: Co-proprietress and schemer extraordinaire, Jess can seem fairly normal in a day-to-day conversation. However, appearances can be deceiving; she is at least as bizarre as Angela, if not moreso on some occasions. She likes melted ice cream, her South American bishounen ranch, and has a thing for the clergy. She and Angela participate in a time-share condominium deal in Hell, where they plan to spend the winter while the DDQ is closed for the season.
Jenny: Friend of the proprietresses, good-girl Jenny was jokingly set up on a blind date with Yoshiki. She admired his music and he admired her ability to write dramatic fiction involving blood, soul-shattering angst, and fallen angels, so they hang out quite frequently, to the shock and horror of everyone involved. Some jokes just shouldn't be taken so seriously. -_-;
