New blog, yo: word.

This whole 'getting up before the sun sets and being a responsible adult' thing sucks.
I'm seriously wondering how angry Matt would be if he came home to find me napping.

• Have 20k+ word total for the year.


• Finish a story. ANY story.


• Continue to do awesome in school.


• Stop biting nails for 100% of the time [Yeah, finals week and my nails didn't get along so well.]


• Read 20 books total.


• Get new tattoo.


• Cancel some credit cards.

I have, like, an uber shit-ton of stuff to do this week [Which I am TOTALLY not procrastinating on]. So, par for the course, my body gives out and I get a migraine [first one in like, a year]. That was Sunday night, and I'm still not at a 100%.

Grrr.

Onwards and upwards, I suppose.

"Not A Pretty Girl"

I am not a pretty girl
that is not what I do
I ain't no damsel in distess
and I don't need to be rescued
so put me down punk
maybe you'd prefer a maiden fair
isn't there a kitten stuck up a tree somewhere

I am not an angry girl
but it seems like I've got everyone fooled
every time I say something they find hard to hear
they chalk it up to my anger
and never to their own fear
and imagine you're a girl
just trying to finally come clean
knowing full well they'd prefer you
were dirty and smiling

and I am sorry
I am not a maiden fair
and I am not a kitten stuck up a tree somewhere

and generally my generation
wouldn't be caught dead working for the man
and generally I agree with them
trouble is you gotta have youself an alternate plan
and I have earned my disillusionment
I have been working all of my life
and I am a patriot
I have been fighting the good fight
and what if there are no damsels in distress
what if I knew that and I called your bluff?
don't you think every kitten figures out how to get down
whether or not you ever show up

I am not a pretty girl
I don't want to be a pretty girl
no I want to be more than a pretty girl

So I had a dream that it was Batman's birthday.
Not Bruce Wayne, but Batman.
He was driving around in a limo for some reason with Zoe Saldaña, who in turn, was talking about how completely and utterly awesome hamburger helper is [It SO is].
And Batman's all like "I have never had this hamburger helper you speak so highly of."
And Zoe was all like "WTF. I'm going to come over to your house and make you some."
And then I woke up wondering how people didn't figure out Bruce Wayne and Batman were one in the same because they share the same birthday.

I'd like to say I had this dream because I am sick, but this is pretty much the caliber of stuff that goes on in my brain on a nightly basis.

I then took a shower and forgot to wash my hair, which was pretty much the ENTIRE purpose of said shower.

Whatever.
Better luck next time.

I woke up to Pearly sitting all prissy-like on Matt's pillow and STARING at me. After taking a few seconds to wake myself up, I reached out to pet her. She proceeds to pile drive and flop on to my hand. She convinces me to get up and feed her and Mandalei, and after doing so, I discover I am retarded and set my clock an hour later than it should be the night before. I say fuck it and go back to bed for another hour.

Just now, I went over to the couch for a minute to sit. Pearly sees this and jumps into my lap and demands teh pets. She also has been cuddling with Matt on the couch the past couple days.

THIS IS NOT NORMAL BEHAVIOR.

Usually we have to "force cuddle" the cats and they are all like "Noooo! Fuck this shit!" and then run away and climb into the ceiling.

I'm not complaining, I just find it odd.
I hope it's not the brain worms.

<.<;
