i can't sleep. we went to bed at 5am (we were watching dexter, what can i say?) so wtf?
vacation was over as of yesterday. i went to work and holy crap dude, i forgot just how much "fun" hell week is. you see, hell week is actually 2 weeks long. it's characterized by the migration of asshole students back into this lovely university-centered town. the quiet and mellow serenity of summer semester is shattered and chaos ensues. week one is the week the students descend upon my lovely town. all the last minute "oh crap i forgot this for my dorm" and beer runs leave the place in ruins. week two is all the "oh crap i forgot this for school" where our binders, pens and loose-leaf paper is destroyed. my head usually reaches exploding level a good dozen or so times this time of year.
on the car front, all i know is that it's not totaled, but either the damage is extensive or just really expensive. i'm still in awe of just how thrashed my car was when the other guy's car had a cracked front fender and bumper - that's it. i wasn't going very fast - 30mph tops, and they supposedly came from a dead stop about 40 yards away. i think i've figured out how i can afford the deductible and not starve as well. i'm so happy i'm actually able to build up a savings now or else i'd be fucked, but lets just say it's gonna be a thrifty christmas.
we were adopted by another cat as well. yesterday, joey was in the drive-thru at wendy's and i guess there was a kitten sitting by the speaker box meowing. he opened his car door and stuck his hand out to pet it (because joey is a fanatic animal lover as well) and it jumped in his car and decided that he was coming home. so now we have 4 freaking cats in this tiny apartment, lol. he a sweetheart though, VERY affectionate. he looks like a reverse orion almost. he's white with gray spots everywhere (including a mustache and "beard").
and i'm nauseous. i blame theresa at work. she was nauseous and sick all night, and with my awesome luck i'm willing to bet i got whatever she had. greeeeeeeat.
imma try to lay down some more, maybe i'll fall asleep.
