Dictionary.com defines tedium as, "The quality or state of being wearisome; irksomeness; tediousness." I have my own definition. Namely, the grant application I'm currently working on that's due tomorrow. I'm not really tired, but I feel tired. My eyes itch, I'm sleepy, and congested. I don't think I'm sick, however. Once I mail this thing, I'm sure I'll feel better.

I don't know why grants need to be so tedious and are not in my opinion about art at all. Well, I guess if I ever have enough money to fund my own grants I will have some standards too. Who am I to judge? Although, I'm judging plenty at the moment. I bet a lot of people have their applications discarded because they didn't follow the directions properly. It almost happened to me. Luckily, I have people to help tell me look over the application.

Well, I turned in my housing form and it looks good. I'll probably move in January. The landlord is nice, why nicer than the one I currently I have. My mom will be my guarantor. However, if I don't pay I'll be in big trouble with her. I'm going to send Celina to get my book Then she can type in the poem for me, which will let me finish the grant application. I have writing group tomorrow so I'll let them review it before I mail it in.

My writer's group completely changed what I'm going to send to "A Room of Her Own." for the grant, I really enjoyed the group, even if it is all the way in Springfield. Kenzie can stay over 15 extra minutes to accommodate my going to group- yay!

I asked my mom for money to get paper and mail the grant. I'm poor until Friday. Then I pay down debt, help a friend, and am poor again,
