*exhausted*

*really really*

I feel like someone has tied a weight to every single part of my body and then put a rubber band around my forehead. It's really not a fun tired. But it's my own fault for being in the sun on Sunday and yesterday was so worth it. Steve and I (Too lazy to bother with coding) went up to Cathedral Grove and basked in the glory of 800 year old trees. And I have pictures to prove it! I'm going to have to go back in costume one of these days. Nymph and dryad costumes ahoy! (I'm obessed, I know!)

That's a lot of exclamation marks. I love how you can convey energy online, even when you have none in real life.

And holy hell, when did the end of my trip here sneak up so fast? I know there was all sorts of discussion about it last night, but it didn't really settle in until today at work, when I was telling people when I was going... *enter big long rant you've all heard before about feeling torn* There. That saved us all some time, angst and flist space.

I also have a really sad story about geekiness and homesickness, but I really just want to curl up on the couch and shrivel right now, so I might do that.

That smiley face I'm using for my mood set is on drugs. Who has hearts in their eyes?

You people are no fun.

It's boring at one thirty am, Eastern time.

I'm going to bed.

Anyone who wants to send Lauren hugs should let me know before about three pm tommorow, your time. I will deliver them in person at about five o'clock your time. Or maybe less, seeing how everything out here seems to be "just down the street" :P

I've been sad about my flist all day, because everyone seems to so that it's Valentine's Day, as most of my flist seems to be single. And it got me thinking. I've never been in a relationship for said day, but this is my first one after having been a part of a couple and I'll admit, that "bitter" part in the "Bitter Single's Society" makes a little more sense now, especially seeing all the couples at the restaurant for dinner. But I was raised to have fun with this day no matter what. Romantic love is wonderful, yes, but it is only one kind of love. You can still celebrate family and friends (which sounds as cheesy as all get out): though admittedly, this route is a little more expensive if you do the consumer thing.

I think I'm just really wierd.

And, finally, even though most of my flist is actually onto the fifteenth of the month, ( a Valentine's Meme )

I suffered a thoroughly unproductive day today :(

It's been a bad exams period. Too much stress from too many sources and I just haven't been able to get on the ball and focus. I'll be up on the late side tonight trying to make amends, but the exam is only worth a quarter of my grade: if I don't do spectacularily, I don't do spectacularily.

Heading out to Quebec tommorow for the yearly trip. I won't be back until the first or second, pending weather conditions, though I should have a little tiny bit of internet access. (On dial up >.< I am so spoiled at home!)

On a happier note I had a great birthday yesterday, and thank you to all the well wishers :) It was a nice to go to bed, log in and find all the happy birthday wishes :) I got lots of cool presents (I tried to list them, but with my commentary, it got way too long ^^*) [info]thecleric007 's present got here today too. :P I had officially given up on seeing Fushigi Yuugi a few weeks ago, but now I have from where I left off, all the way to the end!!!

Plus, I got to see [info]the_great_waka, M., P., [info]cowabungaflip_ and R.. With the exception of the two el jay users, I only see the others every few months. (And it feels like I'm only seeing [info]the_great_waka every few months, lately :( ) We also saw The Wizard of Oz in a movie theater. Tres schway.

Well, I have gone on far longer than I intended and probably lost half of you along the way :P Goodnight and happy holidays!
