day off. yay.
since saturday, i've only worked monday night. so four days off in the span of five days. pretty good, uh? and i woke up today wondering if i was working tonight. but no, i'm not. that's a great feeling 'cause, usually, days off just evaporate. but today feels like an extra day off for some reason. that's an incredible feeling.
my roommate's right in the middle of her exam week. she's been studying every fucking day for the past four days. and has been a bit on edge because of it. she warned me in advance, which was cool because she's (now) aware of it. so i can make fun of her when she gets neurotic and lashes out at me because she's stressed out. but the week hasn't been that bad, really (if you don't count the fact that i can't watch a movie at a normal volume level without her complaining about it - so i'm only watching movies in the afternoon when she's at work). i've been able to make her laugh at her behavior a lot (which, if you know her when she's stressed out, is no small feat) and things have been rather light around here.
oh, i've also started reading again. see, i have a lot of books. but i can only read in short bursts. so if i stop reading for a day or two, forget it. you won't see me reading for another two or three months. but the other week i went through this box of old books (most of them still unread) and found henry miller's sexus. so i started reading it in bed last weekend... and i fucking loved it! it's this shitbrick of a book but i fell for it right away! i couldn't believe it. i love the way he wrote it. anyway, so now i'm reading it in bed every night before i go to sleep.
and last night i also found a way to rearrange my bedroom. i've changed it around a couple of times since moving in last july but it still looks like someone's crashing in the room and not living in it. i mean, i've cleaned it up a bit last fall but it still doesn't look like a proper bedroom. and i still feel weird in it. but last night i found a new plan. and i may do that today.
and i'll also rent spy kids 2: the island of lost dreams and watch it this afternoon. i never saw the first one because i was waiting for the special edition. hmm. i was thinking of renting the two together, but i won't have enough time to watch them both before the roommate comes back from work tonight. and then there are the extras. shit. i think i'll just rent the second one today.
