Aug. 30th, 2004 10:04 pmFirstly, I want to tender much gratitude and thanks to
furrbear, for he has hooked me up with my very own GMail account. YAY!
Secondly, school is school, and now that I've adjusted my expectations for how early I need to show up to find a parking spot, my looming rage levels are dropping back to normal.
Thirdly, it looks like I won't be going with the rest of my immediate family down to Houston over the Labor Day weekend. Because of time-crunch before the October SAT, I've got to tutor 3 lessons this weekend to stay on schedule. I hate not seeing my extended family. I've not seen anyone on my dad's side of the family in, literally, years with the exception of a quick 30-minute visit when my grandfather and aunt dropped off my little sister after this summer's Grand Canyon trip. I want to go, I really, really do, but I have a responsibility to my students to have them ready for their respective tests, and I have to be here to do that.
*sigh*
Sometimes I hate being responsible. Why is it that jagoffs and brain-dead blonde beach bunnies who act like someone else will always be there to clean up their messes and take care of them find their expectations fulfilled, while people who act right and take responsibility for their own actions end up with shit heaped on them? Sometimes it seems like people tend to get what they expect to get, but with all the atrocities and unfairness in the world, I hope that's not true. It'd be pretty bleak otherwise.
Finally, I need to start exercising again. I don't mind being stiff and sore from this past weekend, but I honestly shouldn't be. I'll be walking more now that school has started, but I need more than that and more often than that. I know that the apartment complex has an exercise room, now if I can find out where it is...
P.S. No, I'm not pissed off at anyone or anything; I just tend to get off on rants at times. Nevermind me, don't look behind the curtain, I AM THE GREAT AND POWERFU--- um... yeah... I'll be over here, okay?
