I feel like I should be writing...I just can't be bothered. *wants to hide from the world*

Longest day ever. I'm glad I don't have to worry about another children's birthday party until January. Can I please curl up into a ball and disappear for the next few weeks?
D: *-hug-s Rae* I know that feeling too well.

11 weeks until I get to go home for more than a weekend... I haven't been here 24 hours yet and I'm already counting down. I can't wait for freshers' week to be over so people settle down and stop acting like complete dicks.

Later today, I'm going to be offering to sell both of my cars to help out with finances. We currently don't have a working vehicle and live further than walking distance from the nearest town, which is sort of a deadly combination. I figure both my car and my mom's old car together might fetch $1k-ish, which would go as a good down payment to a hopefully reliable, hopefully working car. It's going to hurt like hell to part with them, but what else can we do right now? ><
Then I'll be talking to my dad and his fiance, whom I don't know if I can stand living with, about moving in with them when her daughter and her daughter's family find a house/apartment. I could stand being a burden on them better than on my brother's family; not to mention I'd be living in town and would stand a better chance of finding a job I could walk to.
Sigh. Life sucks. The economy sucks. Everything sucks. Can't I just go live in the muse realm or something?

Had to make a decision in less than two weeks. A very serious life altering decision. Wherever God will lead me, I will follow.

"Because I'm awesome." is going to be my new reply when people ask me how I did something they find cool. Kinda tired of selling myself short and saying "it was nothing, really." Ego, ahoy!

I finally have time to reappear =P Listening to how others are talking on the phone might help improve my style. Customers first... but enough of the brainwash...
@frappe: Yeah! =) Important decisions involving the future?
@rae: =D A healthy "ego" is nice. You sound really tired of hiring all those comments @.@

^ Hehe, I suppose. ^^; TBh, sometimes I am. It's nice to be praised, really, but when it's blown out of proportion, it's just annoying. I mean, okay...sometimes it's really nice to hear praise, but most of the time the people praising me seem to say the same thing over and over and over and so it just feels annoying and patronizing, so I feel like saying something snarky.
Btw, do you have a fanfiction.net account? *can't remember**making a list of all the people that helped her with MoI*
Random:
Found a lovely little HP FF series that's about 200 chapters long (counting the main, prequel, and sequel chapters as of this moment and not counting all the side one shots). Riddle's quite yummy in it.

Something gets in the way every time my best friend and I arrange to hang out. She came down to spend the night tonight and a friend texted her who needs to be driven to the emergency room. It's as though the very universe is against our socializing. If she makes it back early enough she might come back for the night, but I'm wagering she won't.
I want to do something awesome with my fingernails. While looking for ideas, I hear this voice near my ear going "Green apples green apples paint green apples on them do it do it do it." Damnable muses. Though I like Akino's suggestion better; Don says I should paint tiny Jack Daniel's logos on them. ~_~
Think I might do an outline for my NaNo novel this year. I dunno yet. Akino's against the idea of outlines and is threatening to change stories on me if I try...eh. Hope I can talk him into it. I'd like to do an outline just once.

@rae: That's right! tell them you are awesome cuz you are! Reminds me of the time when my BF says I'm pretty and I would reply "I know" He'd laugh at my ego but duh. let's be honest with ourselves! LOL
@basil: Oooh, long time no see!! glad to have you back! yes, life altering. had to choose a career. I think I'd abandon the nursing career as i don't have passion for it. My friends have invited me to train as a barista. Do you think it's worth my time?

^ LOL Thankies, Frappe. :3 *g**thinks that's a good comeback*
Random:
Need to teach the new person I'm beta-ing for what "one chapter at a time" means. Because they do not seem to have gotten that it means to wait until I'm done with the other chapters before sending the next. Also. I wish they'd not say "have everything done by sunday", then send me an extra chapter and tell me to have it be editted by the following Wendsday. I mean, honey! I'm good. But I'm not that good. Well, I could be if you paid me, but since you're not....

Looks like quite a few people are having a hard time right now. -hugs everyone- I think I'm going to develop a chronic anxiety disorder if I have to stay here much longer. I'm jumping at everything and am more paanoid than ever. I'm now shaking and feel sick with worry most of the time. I'd rather resit all my A level exams back to back tomorrow than spend another week here but guess which of those options is on the cards. And don't tell me that this is normal settling in stuff because I really don't think it is anymore. >.<

Sorry I keep disappearing. I'm currently doing all the housework and most of the nannying because my sister-in-law is sick and my brother's gone and thrown his back out again. Granted I'm sick too, and they're not my kids, but I guess that's not really important to anyone.
I just want to be off in college like a normal twenty-year-old. Or maybe go join a commune or something.
