well, things have been pretty INSANE lately.

i'm going to sari's studio today to do my first observation for my paper entitled, "The Working Class Studio: How Artists Negotiate Space, Place, and Product." i would like to eventually include one of scad's historic buildings in the project, but there probably won't be time for that this semester. so yeah, i need to call her ASAP.

lately my sleeping problem has been getting in the way of me finishing my work. i'm sure that once i stop working 50 hours a week that will help. (Sunday is my last day!)

i'm probably going to take the job at the tattoo shop. seems like it will be easy, and i will only have to work saturdays and sundays. i'm going there next friday to check it out.

i got my new computer, finally! now i'm just waiting to get internet. i didn't think it would be this much of a hassle. but comcast said my address didn't exist, and that it would take 5 business days to verify it. i said FORGET IT. this morning when i woke up a comcast van was out back doing some work- i wanted to run up to him and say "THIS IS MY HOUSE. IT DOES EXIST." so anyway, just waiting for bellsouth to come through, but i forgot i owed them $16 from my last phone bill back in february. oops.

i wish i was in jax with timmy & amanda this weekend.

uhoh

i think i may be officially going crazy.

i usually talk to myself, it's a habit that grew when i started living by myself. but i usually do it in acceptable situations- like at my house, or in cubicles when i used to do the corporate thing.

but the other day i was walking across campus and i actually said something to myself outloud. as other people were walking in front of me, behind me, and past me. then i said "oh!" really loud when i realized what i had just done.

ack.

my schedule is driving me insane, i don't know how i'm going to get everything done. especially since i love to sleep, and i am quickly figuring out that i am too old to pull all-nighters.

the people in my program are crazy, so i guess i fit in. the girl that sits next to me in two of my classes is from arkansas. and the first class she sat next to me in, she informed me that she had narcolepsy and that if she fell asleep, i was to "knock the shit out of her." what? no thanks. she then proceeded to pull out some lisa frank-looking trapper-keeper folder to put her syllabus in. she has one for every class.
