In the three years I've been living in my house, I only just recently have become uncomfortable with living alone. It makes it pretty hard to sleep at night.

09:22 pm - addictions are hard for people
I sincerely hate World of Warcraft. I'm starting a new job this week. It'll be good for money, of course, but also a good outlet for all of my free time that's not used by school.

Tonight,ABC's video kept cutting out and I missed a solid 8 minutes of Lost or so.
I'm feeling a little stressed out. Mostly just because of money. Partly because of school. It sucks. Another thing that sucks is I keep having bad cramps. I haven't had cramps this bad since 8th grade. I don't like it.
I don't have anything important to say.

I skipped classes today because I started my period. That's a really lame excuse to not go to school. I should make up for it by doing productive things at my house like cleaning,or studying the French I missed in class today. But I am legitimately having terrible cramps, so I'll probably sit around in my robe all day, read, pig out on food, take a shower, and wait for Lost to come on. Well, I probably will still study French, since that doesn't take much effort.
Robert and I saw Gran Torino the other night. We snuck in Chick-Fil-A and some little girl almost ran into me when I went to the bathroom. It was a really excellent movie. We both cried, because it was so good. Point of the story, Clint Eastwood is a badass.
I was supposed to go to my 3 week follow up for my wrist this Friday, but the doctor won't be there, so I have to go next Friday. There's still a bump in my wrist, which keeps me from having full use of my wrist. It's probably scar tissue, but how big can scar tissue be? It'd be really great if I had the body of a 21 year old, instead of an old lady.
Last thing, I had a dream Paul Rudd asked me to marry him on a ferris wheel. It was really exciting, but I was nervous because there wasn't enough room for him to be down on one knee in the seat, and I was afraid he would fall. I said yes.

I got my surgical cast off. I absolutely LOVE having two hands, and bag-less showers. Also, the scar is so tiny. It makes me wish I had gone to Dr.Slappey in the first place instead of Dr.Maeser. Oh well. Grammy Chris said the big scar adds character. I think I'll have a story about being a knife thrower's assistant for my grandkids one day if the scar is still prominent.Actually,here's what happened.
Monsieur Tousseau and I met when I was at a local fair when I was only 16. I was mesmerized by his performance. How he kept the audience enthralled. I think he saw the glimmer in my eye as he seemingly pulled the doves out of thin air. When I was the volunteer called to disappear in his trunk, I knew that I'd never want another life. When I joined them,I never knew I'd be escaping my death a year later. Three years later,we were in some small town,so similar to the rest. Monsieur said we were finally going to do the knife throwing act. We'd only practiced it a few times, I knew we weren't ready. My cousin,Kara,had been traveling with us that summer. Monsieur suggested she be our plant in the audience. I'd tried to tell him to pick someone else. Someone who wasn't doing their own show that night, but Kara insisted she wanted to do it. So I stopped arguing, I let her have her way. He called her up, and I handed Monsieur the knives. He had a look in his eyes I didn't understand. Something I'd never seen before. He threw the knife and I dove,hitting it out of the way as I went. It tore open my hand, blood was everywhere. In the hysteria, Monsieur fled. I had nearly bled to death, but Yvonne, the rubber band lady,formed a tourniquet on my arm. After I'd gotten stitches,and was waiting in the hospital. Kara told me about the fight they had had. They had briefly fallen in love, but then she caught the eye of the James. The runner-up acrobat. Monsieur had found out, and wanted his revenge. Luckily, my cat-like reflexes saved Kara's life. Something like that is worth the scar on my wrist.
I'm hungry. But I have to go to a movie soon. I'd say me and ML could get some food later, but places will be closed.DANGIT! I'm done in my livejournal right now.
I'm hungry.

Second day of classes. Semesters going to be all right. Sat around for a while on the computer and decided I wanted to drop tennis,so I did. Something tells me I might be able to write this whole entry with sentences starting in 'S'. Saw Jennifer on the way to the bathroom,and we devised a plan to be partners in photojournalism. She put her name on number 10 in the list,because I was number 10. Sure ended up being funny though, because the last photojournalist was number 7. So,we're gonna have to see if Hoerner is gonna let it slide. Seems like he won't. Sometimtes, I get really jealous for no reason and then do nothing about it. Sleeping is something I'm going to do soon. See you later LJ.

So I was filling out Robert's birthday card "Hope it's a magical birthday...yadda yadda", and I go to sign it. How do you sign your boyfriend's birthday card if you aren't in love? Don't get me wrong, I care about him. But you don't sign a card "care about you, Alaina". I could just sign it "Happy birthday, Alaina". But I don't like to write happy birthday in a card that already says happy birthday. I could also sign it " - Alaina". But that's just really sad and pathetic looking. Someone suggested the XOXO thing. But clearly, I am not girly enough for that crap.

Lortabs.I am tired and hyper. Painfree,yet I have a headache. My arm is itchy and so is my nose. I think somebody (myself,a nurse,or a doctor) hit my nose during my surgery the other day. The bridge hurts when I touch it. I keep getting paranoid about stuff. I am my dad's daughter. Shit.
King of the Hill is hilarious and if I was 12 years old I would want to be bff's with Bobby Hill.
I'm ready for school to start so I have something to do. I am so bored. I think a big reason I was so bored this break is because I didn't go to Oregon, so I had a lot more free time than usual. Also, I'm glad school is starting because I'll get to see Robert a lot more. I miss him a bunch sometimes. That's weird for me to miss somebody like that. It's not a bad weird,but still weird. I like what we've got. It's good. Great,even.
I'm gonna watch Dead Like Me now. Thanks for getting all of your awesome shows cancelled,Bryan Fuller.

Last night I had a going back to school dream. I couldn't remember any French and there was only about 5 other people in my French class. I couldn't find my tennis class and we had to have try-outs for the class, which was ridiculous. None of my friends were at school, and it was awful.
I also had a dream where I was at this fancy party with rock lobsters and giant scallops. Brad Pitt (not really him,he was acting,but it wasn't a movie,it was really happening) stole 5 billion dollars from this man who did foreign trades. I figured out at the last minute it was a set-up and the person everyone thought stole the money didn't, because Brad Pitt had gotten ice at the wrong time. I jumped off the roof 4 floors towards the helicopter and I thought I was going to die. The propellers lifted me back up though, so I was okay. I stopped Brad Pitt from escaping with the money, and the boss man gave me a couple million dollars for my help. I bought an island.
I had another dream I was driving a bus, and going to Andrea and Shane's town house (it was a cottage decor) but on the way I got three flat tires. Merry Lynn was trying to fix it, but she didn't know how. We knocked on all the doors of the neighborhood. Eventually, it morphed into another dream where I was on the run, and I had a bright red sports car.
Those dreams were are all overly detailed. Ew, probably because I slept almost 10 hours.

2009 is going to be a good year. I don't have any resolutions. Well, maybe it can be to figure out how to use a telescope. That'd be useful.

I got good things for Christmas. Pushing Daisies, Flight of the Conchords, a new comforter, a crock pot, a meat thermometer, clothes, and 4 months of Netflix. Wooo. I got other stuff too, those were just my favorites. Oh, and though it's not technically mine, Dawson got an Xbox 360. I am going to tear that shit up.
Saturday night was just lovely. Lovely. Robert and I sat on the porch and enjoyed the freakishly warm weather. There was a soft breeze blowing, making it only that much more lovely. Haha. It really was a wonderful porch sitting evening, even though Robert abused the word lovely.
We saw The Curious Case of Benjamin Button the night before, probably one of the better movies I've seen in theaters for a while. I liked it a lot. Sweet, long, and beautiful.
Next week,I'm getting the cyst removed from my left hand. I hate having only one hand, it makes life too difficult. Oh well, three weeks of one hand is better than having to deal with a painful wrist always. Plus, ya know, painkillers. Yes!
I'm going to the eyedoctor tomorrow, I have to wear my glasses all the time now, and they're still a little off. If the doctor tells me I always have to wear them, I might seriously consider contacts. Ew.
That's pretty much all I have to say, couldn't think of a better way, then to write in my L-J.

11:22 pm - return of the egoist.
Sooo,I'm going to try and start posting in here more. Because,as Kara points out often (and I point out to her about herself),I love me. I was reading all of my old entries and a lot of them are pretty effing hilarious. It's going to be really good. Also, Kara and I are considering making a young adult novel out of our livejournals.It'd be a best seller,I'm sure.
Evan's birthday was today,he got Rock Band.We played it,and it was alright. I can't wait until Dawson gets Rock Band 2 from Santa,it's going to be pimp.
Tomorrow night,I'm going to hang out with Robert. :). Rum and sodas for me, manly martinis for him. To quote him exactly "Friday night shall equal good times". It makes me laugh a little that he used the word shall. It's correct and all, but it's still funny. Maybe,also,we can order some pizza and watch Dandelion or Mean Creek.
I'm realizing this isn't as funny as my older entries. Either one of two things happened. One: I might not be as funny as I used to be OR two:I might be a little less mentally retarded and make more sense in entries,but that makes them not as funny.
Oh well,Sex and the City is on and Miranda is fucking a black guy. Great.

I'm feeling very nostalgic lately. I'm missing a lot of things I don't have in my life right now. Longing and desire. What's up, repetitiveness of my life?
On another note. Summer has been fun. Oregon was fun. We had a concert. It sucked and was amazing. Beach trips were lacking thanks to school for two extra months. School starts Monday. I am completely unprepared for that and I have no money. I have to wear a splint for two more weeks because of a cyst in my wrist and I think I'm done complaining.
