late night ramblings
Jun. 23rd, 2002 01:56 am~My toe still hurts. Ow.
~I just ate about 1/4 of a watermelon. I'm not sure if that's an enormous portion or not... it looked like a lot, but it's *watermelon*. Not a lot to it. I wanted something though, and that was handy.

I could really relate to how sometimes Vivie had this overwhelming urge to abandon her family. There are days when I think, "This is too hard, I want to run away and feel like me again... I don't want to be anyone's girlfriend/mother/partner/daughter/etc today... I just want to hide from it for a while." But I know I shouldn't. I know I'm needed. I know it would be unforgivable to leave. So I don't.

~Sometimes I wonder if the reason why I hate describing myself is because I haven't figured myself out. Or maybe it's really because I think I'm boring. I don't feel like I stand out very much anymore. Sometimes I think that's a good thing, because it means that I'm among my own kind, but other times I hate it because it means that I'm just one of the flock. And other times I wonder, "who the hell cares? As long as you're happy, why does it matter if you stand out or not?"
~The cats are quiet again. I know it's just a ruse. They're going to wait until it's 4am & I'm sound asleep, and then they're going to attack my feet and fight with each other. They are evil, evil creatures.
~I know I should be sleeping right now. I'm going to regret this in the morning.
~I have to remember to call my father tomorrow. I tried calling on Father's Day, but the phone was always busy.
~Tomorrow I also have to look into getting a job again. *sigh* From what I've figured, I need to bring in about $1500 a month. Can I do that right now? I don't have a degree... plus I have to make sure that I can work certain hours so the Munchkin doesn't have to go to day care, otherwise I'm not really making any money.
~Argh.
~I miss pimento cheese, or at least the brand I used to be able to get in North Carolina. Most of the ones you can get nationally are horrible. I can make a decent homemade one, but it requires a little bit of time, especially if I'm grating the cheese myself. I miss Cheerwine too, but at least I can have that shipped to me occasionally. One of the foods I miss the most, and can't get at all around here, is livermush. Horrible name for the food, but I really miss having it fried for breakfast with some eggs and toast. Comfort food.
~Argh again.
