Twenty Years.

I don't really like "Today I..." sort of posts, but I'll let that slide for fresh beginnings and new places.

I'm in this sort of observer phase right now. I like to look at everything. Even the roof tops out my bedroom window distract me. The houses around here are all my dream houses. Well, most anyway. They are all sturdy old houses, the majority are of the "victorian" style. I have yet to see two houses of a similar structure next to one another. They're beautiful with their colorful living yards. I think that our apartment complex is the nicest on apartment way. I don't know if it's because I am favoring my own, or if it really is. I wondered downtown on my own today. I only have one class Mondays and Thursdays, which ends at 12:50 leaving me hours on my own. I did alot of looking and finally bought a case of West Coast wheat beer. I think the picture of the killer whale might have had something to do with it. I forgot how far away the liquor store really was from here though and partly regretted the idea soon after. Now that I am home and have rested a bit I've come to terms with the purchase of the beer. I had my Math for the Elementary teacher class today. Unfortunately we were informed that we will not be doing elementary level math. Of course I knew this going in but I have to admit, my fingers were crossed for counting and equations from a third grade level.  Silly me. I am at the point of admitting that I have a problem when it comes to spending money at "hippie" booths on the street. They sucker me in every time. It really doesn't help that they are set up in fields around campus either. I bought a scarf today. It's pretty bling. It's mostly purple in color but it has a [I'd say level 1, being mild] pink, orange and green tie dye job. Oh, and there is shiny silver tinsel throughout. I'm finding that bicycle prices are through the roof. Even the used ones start around 175$ and on average you pay about 600$ - 1000$ for a new one. I'm tempted to settle at taking the bus for the entire year but then I miss out on this idea of exercise that I have. What's a chubby poor girl to do? It's like paying to shed some pounds.  Bogus. I've been thinking about rabbitknapping a bunny from campus. If Chris can do it, so can I, right? Although this plan also requires that I hide the bunny from him as pets are not in included in the living arrangement. I've officially succeeded at boring myself by writing this post, I should probably go do some trophy wife activities such as washing the dishes in my short skirt.

Later daze. [Yes, this is a reference to that cartoon show with the kids with the wide faces.]
