The Battle of Strong Badia
Jan. 6th, 2004 02:30 pmOkay, so in three days we've gone from a high of 70 degrees to a high of 34 degrees. The low tonight is 16, which I have not experienced in at least a year. I plan to spend the evening bundled up in a blanket.
This is not the greatest day. I've had a series of annoyances which culminated in me getting mad at Evan over something very dumb. Things are okay now, but I still feel kind of tense. Do you ever have one of those weeks where you're suddenly, irrationally afraid of all the things that could happen to you? Like, out of nowhere, you think "Oh my gosh, what if I had an accident and went blind?" It'll pass. I probably just need to watch less TV. :P Everything I saw last night seemed like a list of ways to suffer- being stranded on a deserted island, your loved one marrying someone else because they thought you were dead, being sneakily murdered by your plastic surgeon's nurse, etc. Well, God's in control, and most of those things should be easy enough to avoid. LOL.
The new Strong Bad e-mail is hilarious. Sorry to those of you who don't like Strong Bad. Hey, that's a good lead-in to the following list, inspired by Jessica's. It was a good stress reliever.
I am not sorry for...
liking my curly hair and not wanting to permanently straighten it
not being hyper-productive in my day-to-day life
not being on the Atkins diet, or any other organized diet, just because everyone else is
having an LJ and online friends
not having a graduate degree (Okay, I am sorry for this, but I shouldn't be.)
going to public schools all my life
being Presbyterian
not waiting till I'm married to kiss
liking pop culture
liking Clay Aiken and Hanson
needing time to myself sometimes
being a neat freak
not being as "mature" and poised as some women my age
not making perfect scrapbooks that look like impersonal museum pieces
being a Harry Potter and LOTR fangirl
being punctual
driving a really small car that other people make fun of
I'm sure there are other things, but that's all that comes to mind right now.
