I updated the song lyrics meme with answers, if anyone's still curious.

I have got to get my sleep schedule turned around. I stayed up until 4 a.m. last night, and then slept in today. Slept in, meaning I usually get up around noon, so today I got up at 1:30. Admittedly, last night was a special case, since Tracey and I were doing a mini-marathon of Smallville; but still, I'd like to see morning sometime.

I smell like gasoline. :(

Otherwise, I've had a perfectly acceptable day.

I am a fool for dumb memes
Here, five seven five.

This semester sucks
I forsee no social life
That's not a real change.

I got drunk dialed
It's kind of overrated
Wrong number, anyway.

Smallville with Tracey
A Lex Luthor love luau
Or so she promised.

Yugoslavian
Burek was tasty,
Not worth the trouble.

This, a bad idea,
Haiku are very tempting,
Should stick to sonnets.

If anyone's been trying to call my cell phone, it died. Abruptly and for no good reason. I called my Dad, it was fine, five minutes later I went to stick it in my backpack and found myself holding a telecorpse. :( I guess I get to go get that fixed, too. ::pout:: Life's getting expensive.
And I got the booklist for one of my classes next semester: seven books, one of which is out of print, and one of which doesn't exist, according to both Amazon, B&N, and a quick google search.

However:
I'm free! No more classes!! All done!!!
Watch me do the snoopy dance.
::dance, dance::
Now I don't know what to do with myself, since I feel like I ought to be stressing about something.

I got a call-back from the State Department yesterday! I'm on the short list, now. It sounded like they were just seeing who was still interested, so I should know soon whether or not I'm in. Either way, at least I know I'm a fairly desirable candidate, since my resume made it that far.

I've been trying to figure out if I want this more than the CIA postition-either way it's intelligence, and I have a feeling I might be more comfortable in the State Department, since it's a more diverse organization.

In other news, I am preparing to begin the annual baking procedures. :) If anybody has any special requests in the baked-good department, feel free to let me know. I'll probably do fudge and sugar cookies, but I could handle something else as well. I'm debating pfeffernusse, but only because I like the name; I'm open to more practical suggestions.

Arrggh!

My google-fu has failed me. This is more frustrating by the fact that the information I desire, I have. On a piece of paper. In a box. Somewhere in this apartment. ::sigh:: And I just saw it not too long ago, besides.
I have no idea how to go about finding this poem, if it doesn't turn up again.
Meanwhile-Steve, were you here when I found that poem I said I'd been looking for? And if so, do you remember where the hell I put it, so I wouldn't forget where I put it?

::sigh:: I have a feeling other people don't burn through keyboards like this. Although I suppose burn isn't the right word, since they've all drowned thus far.

In other news, the hole in my ceiling has been fixed.

I've been trying to think ahead about Christmas presents. I'd planned to make presents this year, but when I'm going to find time to do that is another story. Then again, if I really get organized, I've got plenty of time for what I'd planned. It's just a matter of not neglecting schoolwork (read procrastinating) in the interest of doing other stuff. I really need to work on hunting internships this week, I know the state department applications are due really early, and I'm sure the others are as well.

I must be quite mad. I've agreed to go back and help out at Godiva. I really don't know what's wrong with me.

I went to the Patt. school picnic this weekend. The running joke soon became that I was, in fact, a CIA agent, because I looked like I belonged, but nobody knew anything about me. ::sigh:: Just because I never know what people mean by "where are you from?" And I'm not very good at making small talk about myself.
I've always had this problem; there were people in high school complaining they'd known me for 3 years, but they didn't know me, really. I didn't get the memo that says that you have to tell people the complete story of your life on first meeting.

Hung out with Amanda some-I really meant to have better plans than that, but "going out and doing stuff" worked.

And now I'm utterly procrastinating. I'm supposed to be writing a little paper, the purpose of which is (I think) a combination of teaching the art of summary, and producing a writing sample. Unfortunately, yours truly was given the gift of summary by an evil probably well-intentioned fairy, in lieu of the gift of flowery prose. ::Sigh:: Wouldn't be so bad, except I was also visited by the "you already know this, why am I telling you about it" fairy, and the "how about I write about something I actually care about" fairy.

Nerd/geek/dork? All 3! )

I slept in until noon today. This resulted, yet again, in strange dreams, including dreaming that I wandered in to the living room to discover Ann as an 8 year old girl. I was so confused by this that in the dream I realized I was napping, and could indeed feel the couch under my cheek. This would have been fine, except then I had to realize again that I was dreaming and figure out taht I was in bed.

Walked to class in really nice whether, considering. Found an abandoned dollar bill, which I took to be a good omen.

Classes were long, and ranged from far too much information crammed in, and a google exercise for a member of the Mossad (this would be far more exciting if we hadn't know exactly where to find the info), to a "get on with it already!" statistics class.

Wandered over to the student center briefly, and helped PSP steal liberate a table from the Miskies.

Got catcalled on the way home, from the world's most redneck punk and his friend. I've never received an appreciative "Day-um!" at such close quarters before (this was from the hairspiked and punk-rock redneck) and having a part dachsund mutt sicced on me to the tune of "Git'er, Leroy" was certainly an adventure. Leroy, at least, was kind of cute.

I have Sunday off, in case anyone cared. I'll be dead from inventory, but I might be fun to be around anyway. ;)

I got to play a good round of "Where'd I put that" this evening. Not only did I win, I managed to complete a bonus round, plus I got extra points for finding things I wasn't looking for yet. I have got to clean this place up.

I had every intention of listening to the sermon on tape Mom sent me this morning, but instead I ended up watching Highlander. One of the episodes had Darius in it, I hope that kind of counts.
Had every intention of going to get my hair cut, too, but they close really ridiculously early. Did get to the library and the bookstore, and visited with Chisa at the mall a bit.
Ended up going out to dinner with Alexis and Amanda, and then the movies with Amanda. Really fun-Robots is a really cute movie. Not profound or anything, but entertaining.
Socialization is good.
