O-H-I-O !!

Well, my school might have lost, but my team won! I will always be, first and foremost, a huge Buckeyes fan and Ohio State won their game yesterday, 24-21. Nugent kicked this amazing field goal in the last 2 seconds to win it... 55 yards! It was awesome, and it was definitely the right kind of pick-me-up we needed after that other horrible game (which, in all honesty, was actually a very good game. ^_~) Rock on, Ohio State. Rock on. Also, go Georgia! I didn't get to see the game (only about five minutes of it, actually, right at the beginning), but I made sure to read about it later. Check this line out, Tori. It made me want to laugh/cry: "Because Greene is one of the best quarterbacks in the nation, it's difficult to find an adjective to describe his play for the first 20 minutes of the game. "Rixian" comes to mind." So there you have it. The football season has officially begun and I'm super excited for the next game. FSU will be at home, and hopefully we'll be able to catch OSU on tv. If we have to resort to watching updates online, though, so be it. Obsessed with football? Me? Not at all. >_>;;

GOD DAMN IT, RIX!! [M-L]

There aren't enough swear words in the English language for me to express what it is I'm feeling right now. Anger. Rising. Can't. Control. Arrrggg!!! We had them, too! And in Miami, no less! That's what makes this all so unbearable! We had the damn game until the last two minutes and then Rix fumbled the god damn ball. That's right, cry your fucking eyes out, you big pansy. You cost us the game. Again. I'm going to go break something now. Preferrably, I'd like to break my foot off in a certain quarterback's ass, but then again, hitting girls is wrong. #*@%*$() @&* $((@& @)$$* &*$@## &*@!!!!

Something is rotten in the state of Denmark.

I was thinking about it, and this has probably be the worst start to a school year I've ever had in my entire life. I can't even explain it properly. It's like I paid for all the bad karma I've made in my life in the span of a week or so. And while some of it has come and gone, I'm still not happy at all, and that in itself upsets me. I am a happy person, by nature. I am generally optimistic, and I enjoy life. I have fun doing stupid, little things. I even like going to class. But lately, it hasn't been that way, and while I hate to say that I'm depressed (because it seems to have become some kind of trend for whatever reason), I'm certainly not doing as well as I could be. There's a ton of reasons why, and I don't feel like going into it. But it's not like I'm unhappy all the freaking time. There's a pretty normal flow to things, but underneath that, it's languid and slow and not at all where it should be. Le sigh. This too shall pass, though, right? Things will settle down sometime. >_>;; I hate being whiny. I'll try to be funnier tomorrow. You guys will still be my friends, right? BFF, right? Right?!? .....Ahem.

Shoot me now.

Frances turned out to be a pansy by the time it got to us. The gulf didn't really do anything for it, and it's in Georgia now. Ivan is somewhere south, being a little more threatening. It's supposed to hit by the weekend, but as to where it's going, only time will tell. But damn, I am hungry and I am going crazy. I can't stand being stuck inside for so long. It's only been like... 38 hours or so, but the very thought of not being able to go out will absolutely drive me bonkers. Can you say Cabin Fever? I can! I guess I should do homework or something. I'm not very motivated though. I haven't been very motivated for anything. Except food.

What the hell is with this season?

It's like I'm destined to drown, or be struck by lightning, or get smashed into the ground by a snapped tree, or blown away by ridiculously strong winds. I don't know, man. These hurricanes are just coming one after the other. It's not real cool. I'm sitting in my dorm room. I'll probably be sitting in my dorm room for the next 24 hours because Frances is about to rear her ugly head. And apparently, Tallahassee floods. Yay. I have discovered a new fear of mine, though. Hurricanes don't scare me. Lightning and thunder, nope. Floods, naw. But the thought of a tornado ripping through my neighborhood (or the campus)? Yeah, cue the seizure-like pounding of my heart. I can't stand that horrible, whistling sound that the wind makes when it's going that fast. Generally, I love the wind because I've always loved the idea of being able to fly. But these kinds of winds just scare me to no end. On a different note, things have been getting a little better. The last couple weeks have not been good to me in any way, shape, or form, but there's not a lot I can do except continue to roll with the punches. I'm still feeling kind of under the weather most of the time, but at this point it's because a number of different factors. But it could also be a lot worse, and I've had a lot of support in the last couple weeks. I can't tell you how much that means to me, how much I appreciate it. So that's life for now, I guess. How's the rest of the world doing? Good? Bad? Anybody? Anybody?

Le sigh.

This is the worst week ever. I hate you, Frances. I hate you. I also hate tomatoes. So gross. I'm coping. Somehow.

R.I.P.

My dog died Sunday night. Excuse me if I'm not on a lot in the next week, but I'm heartbroken right now and I have to deal with this in my own time. Until next time.

Terrorize this!

I haven't been on a whole lot in the past couple days, which I apologize for. But I've been having a rough time lately, and the weekend was entirely too short with entirely too much drama. Honestly, men are just as bitchy and moody as we are. They don't even need the PMS. And naturally, to add to the loveliness, my dog is apparently very sick. She went to the vet recently, and her hips are always pretty sore from the check ups they do (she has bad hips anyway), but I guess she hasn't been moving well at all. My dad told me tonight that he and my brother literally had to carry her in from the pool deck the other night because she just didn't want to move. He also said that she hasn't been eating well at all and that she hasn't really touched her food since Thursday. She's been coughing a lot, and is generally doing bad. I'm going home Labor Day Weekend, as we had planned from the start of the year, but now the reasons are entirely different. I'm really, really scared (as silly as it may seem to others) that this could be the last time I see my dog. On top of all the other crap that's happened this weekend, I certainly can't deal very well with this latest bit of news. Otherwise, the first week of school went pretty well. Half of my classes aren't what I thought they were at all, but it's turned out all right. It's been exhausting though, and this weekend added to it, if anything. I am truly back to the college life. ^_^;; What about the rest of you? I know some of you probably haven't started yet, but for those who have, what's your first week been like? Any interesting experiences? For those who haven't, what are your concerns? What are you looking forward to? It'd be cool to see what everybody's thoughts are.

Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) Informational Sessions

I checked my mail today and that was the header of one the e-mails. Ten minutes later, I stopped laughing and pulled myself off of the ground and managed to click it open. The very idea of me being in the CIA is hysterical, but what makes it even funnier is that I'm actually such a huge fan of spies and Alias and that sort of thing (even though it's all horribly glorified, heh). I know that my beloved friend Natalie would probably have the same reaction, though. Maybe we can go together and giggle through the whole thing. I love being silly. ^_^; Yesterday, I had the idea to ask James about a few things I had planned for an RPG idea because, as you know, James is very good with RPGs and I knew that he was familiar with the topic. What I didn't know, however, was that he was planning almost the exact RPG. Weird, but cool. So yes, that's how the collaboration thing began. It's very exciting because there are a lot of big ideas and I think that everyone is really going to get into it. It's very, very cool. You know what else is cool? I got my football coupons yesterday as well, so now I'm super excited about going to games. And soon we'll be having our first (away) game of the season: FSU vs. Miami. Let's hope it doesn't rain (Rix happens).

Danny's not here, Mrs. Torrence!

I swear, I will never tire of AngryAliens.com and their wonderful bunnies. The Shining re-enactment is definitely my favorite one, but The Exorcist is a close second. If you haven't been there recently, they've got a new one: JAWS. Oh baby, oh baby. ^_~ So, this is kind of weird. Imagine someone like me trying to do that. It's just ... wrong. Hmm. Zidargh. Scary. Ladies and gentlemen, classes start tomorrow. I've got four classes to go to: History of Asia (9:05), Italian (10:10), The Short Story (11:15), and then this art class at 2:30. So I get a nice break for lunch, which I thought I wasn't going to get. I have a really awful memory, by the way. Tuesdays and Thursdays, my only class is Italian. That's going to be interesting. And bloody beautiful. Then on Friday, I don't have that art class, so I'm done at noon. How cool is that? Me and my sister have decided that we're going to try and make it to the gym every Thursday. I'm looking forward to that, as well, because it's so much easier to push yourself when you've got someone else to help you do it. ^_^; We also talked about meeting at the SLB for videogames on Tuesdays, but we'll see how it all pans out. In other news, we've had some dreadful weather. It's been pretty rainy, and it's supposed to storm all week. What a way to start the new school year. I don't have an umbrella. Zombie Bunny - he ate that one guy's head. It's been pretty eventless here, though. Still not done sorting through some of my stuff, but in order to finish, I actually have to buy some kind of shelving unit. That, and I need a rug for the bathroom, because nobody wants to get out of the shower and step on cold tile floor. I think my work here is done.
