i did it once again

today i feel: gross
today i'm hearing: room noise
today i'm thinking: mono? mono doesn't sound good...

Randy's air conditioner is fixed. You have no idea how wonderful of a thing that is.

I've been having a lot of ear problems in the past coupld of weeks, so I went to the health centre today to get it checked out. Apparently, the little tubes that connect my ears to my mouth are really blocked up. Which is gross. And tickles in all the wrong ways. But I'm okay with this because a.) it's not an ear infection, 2.) there aren't any holes in my ear drum, and iii.) it's pretty easy to get rid of. Most of the time. I'm supposed to rehydrate myseld (again???), pop a few sudafeds and hope for the best. That sounds pretty easy. I think I can deal. The hardest parts are going to be keeping my hands away from it and not sleeping on it. Gah.

The past couple weeks of school have been kicking my ass. I don't think I've ever been so stressed so early in the game. This is resulting in quite a few things that I don't care to deal with right now: mainly, illness, my semi-seasonal depression, and continual nagging thoughts about 'what it all means'. I hate those. I'm hoping that slowing myself down a little will help to clear my head, but I'm not sure if that will actually work. I can be pretty muddled up when I really want to be. I'm also going to have a really rough time keeping myself from racing this weekend. We've got One Day Play Day on Sunday and our first CTF game of the season and I'm avoiding the Tummy Impaler (remember him?) and trying to see Deb and and and-- Jesus. I need to chill ALL THE FLIPPING TIME. I just wish that reiminding myself of that actually made me do it.

It's finally starting to cool off down here in Car-bohn-duh-lay. It's been hanging around happily in the 80s for a couple of days, but the breeze and occassional rain makes it a little more bearable. We still need rain, though. We always need rain. I'm hoping things cool off a bit more and we can get into jumper weather. I love jumper weather. It is...so choice.

Oy. Illness.
