Made the dean's list, maybe broke my hand
Thursday. 7.1.10 5:05 pm
So, because of hurricane Alex, our almost-done (yay!) pool was about to cave in yesterday. The only thing I could think to do to save it was to lift the (maybe 100lbs) stairs into the pool. By myself. Cause no one else was home. I managed it, but not without doing some serious damage to my hand. Weirdly, it's only slightly swollen and bruised, but it hurts way more than the broken toes I've had in the past. That could be because broken toes don't hurt that badly. For me anyway, because I'm used to them.
However, I made the dean's list, and my essay on Beowulf made someone in my class afraid she wouldn't be able to keep up with the class, so that cheered me up a little. And I guess I can't complain too much about a maybe-broken hand because of Alex, because people have died from that thing already. I should be grateful it's only a hurt hand, right? Still, no health insurance = no doctor and no x-ray = I hope like hell it's not broken and just heals on its own.
I need a job.
Just for shits and giggles, here's a list of other things I need:
a boyfriend.
the will to stop smoking and stay on a weight loss plan/not lose my will to lose every time I see pasta
sushi
to dye my hair
new clothes
my license
the desire to work on my novel when I have the time
a boyfriend.
Yes, I realize I put "boyfriend" twice. I just really want one. I'm tired of being single. And I've never actually had one. Not since elementary, and those don't count. Grah. Maybe I'm too picky/shy/reclusive/all of the above.
