So I was taking inventory of my pre-college life tonight. You know, looking back and thinking about what I regret doing, and what I regret not doing, that sort of thing.

Regret #1: My bedroom is right above our kitchen, and I never installed a bat-pole in my closet. It would have been so perfect...

Hearts of Oak

Argh. I've been feeling down lately, and at the advice of Kathleen, I'm just going to come out and say it.

I don't know how many of my woodlands/oak ridge friends read this even, but I've been feeling really cut off lately. I leave for oregon and then school this coming thursday, the 18th. That makes this the last weekend I'm in town. I know that saturday is shot, because a lot of you are going to the System of a Down concert, but I feel like no one is even trying to do anything with me.

Part of it is the fact that I was more or less house-ridden with a cold the first half of this week and I'm going stir crazy, but I just feel like I'm about to leave for several months and no one is really going to notice that I'm gone unless I make a big stink about it.

I really should just call people, but it'd do me a lot more good to hear from someone without having to initiate the conversation myself.

So if you read this, call me, because I'm not likely to break out of this funk on my own.

Oy, being that I've been helping with Vacation Bible School this past week, I've been lacking for awesome moments. However, I think today deserves mention, just because I don't have to get up at fucking 7 in the morning any more. Awesome.
