And I Don't Want To Feel This Way, No...

jackofallgeeksWell, let's see. What did I do with MY Saturday?
Well, I got up at 8:50... well, OK, 9:05 before I actually GOT up. Did my Morning Thing, and then scurried over to JP2 for work. We got Paid yesterday, that's a Yeah. But today kinda sucked. ><* I've been feeling sick recently, with a headache and such, and I have a sore in the back on my mouth, near my jaw, that's making it hard/painful to open my mouth much. That's not cool, but I think it's getting better. Additionally, last night just as I was getting ready to go to bed (11:30, Midnight-ish) Trevor comes in and decides he wants to talk - meaning works kept comming out of his mouth, wether or not they meant anything or I was listening. He decided to inform me that the volume of my typing is quite bothersome when he tries sleeping and if I could "maybe type [my] Journal earlier, or just not type at all." Right. We've been through this. No need to go further.
I'm afraid, however, that as opposed to my normal habit, I'm just trying to deal with the situation. ^_^;; Perhaps it's quite unlike me to "not want to cause waves," but at the same time, if one isn't careful and judicious, one's roommate could make life quite a hell. And, with that understanding, if I can keep the waters calm until I'm at least prepared with something to do about it... More and more I think that, assuming I can find a willing partner, I may not be here much past Christmas.
ANYWAYS, I finally told him (not in as many words) that I had work in the morning, so shut up and let me sleep. It was about 1:30 or 2:00 before that, however, and (combined with my cold) I woke up this morning very achey and not wanting to go to work. I ALMOST called out sick, except that I'm not-quite-broke and I won't be getting much work at all this comming month - and before Mid-december I'm not going to be here. So I grit my teeth and went it.
Work was about average, save that we had a very constant stream of people comming in. I saw one girl who kinda looked like a mix between Mina and Beth. However, this is a moot comparison, as thgose of you who know Mina don't know [this] Beth, and those that know Beth don't know Mina. ^_^;; Ah well, I know what she looks like. ^_^
I got back to my room and (after checking LJ and my mail) quickly collapsed on my bed, feeling in desperate need of some rest. I grabbed the second of the three CDs I made (Vigor) and finished listening to it (I'd started last night). It's a decent CD, though not quite as good as Ohverin, in my opinion, and it's a bit choppy. I thought of shuffling the Tracks around and burning a new one (naming it Vinegrette) but it just felt like too much of a waste to me, so I didn't. We'll see what Cait thinks of the CD before going to those lengths. Additionally, I thought of burning a CD for myself entitled Every New Begining, but I haven't quite gotten around to figuring out what tracks would be on it.
ANYWAYS, I listened to the CD for the last 1/2 hour that was on it, then slept until, oh, 8:00 or so. About then I got on and talked to (of all people) Ms. Liz from Virginia and ordered a Pizza (curse Aaron for telling me Dominoes taked Credit Cards...). When the Pizza got here, I ate a bit and finally got around to watching "The Secret of NIHM," which I borrowed from Louis. It was actually a pretty cool movie, and I'm sure I've seen it before. I'm afraid, though, that the whole way through I was thinking to myself how this could be perceived as a transcript of a role-plasying game. i've gotta find a group....
And that's been my day. I'm thinking of laying down (after taking some Tylonol or Aleve) and listening to this last CD (Every Silver Lining). I still think I want to go through all my other CDs and list their track lists here on LJ, even just for my own records (honestly, though, I got a KICK out of discussing music on that last post, and I'd so love to do it again).
I also got t'gether with my dad, yesterday, though, and I though (as I didn't post last night) I might record it here. After work, I got a Voice Mail from my dad, and upon calling him back found that he was going to Gramma's for dinner, and was wondering if I had plans. I couldn't recall anything and - as I'd wanted to discuss this Voting Thing with him anyways - decided what the hell. (Sadly, it later came to light that I had had plans, but the guys were cool about it. ><* I feel bad, and I've gotta find some way to make it up to them.)
Anyways, on the way over there, we got stuck in the Horrid Ordeal that id DC/MD traffic. ^_^ Dad got funny. That is to say, he couldn't understand how these people could be so STUPID, and at one point started pounding the ceiling in frustration. ^_^ Anyways, I told him about a possible Internship I could get over here this summer with ONI (some Navy division) at $11-$16/hour, and he instantly recognized the name and started extolling the virtues of the place. He said it'd be great even if it meant being on this coast for the summer instead of home, and so I guess I'm going to apply. ^_^
Anyways, we finally got to Gramma's and had dinner, talked about a bunch of stuff (it was cool, cause Gramma and Grandpa still don't quite get my dad's sense of humor, so I caught little jokes that they missed). I want to say something else of intrest happened, but I can't think of it - damnable headache. Ah well, maybe it'll come to me.
