Backstory: Since I woke up friday I have only slept for about 4 hours. All of that was last night.

Today: So I finally got to sleep around 4, after having insane hallucinations for two hours, made all the more disturbing by my total sobriety. I had to get up at 6 for work (8 oclock start, I have a one hour commute), but my alarm was set, I thought it'd be cool. Apparently not. I wake up at 9:15, not at work til ten (and it cost me a $40 cab). I walk in, apologising profusely as my boss storms up to me. He takes on look at me, his expresson softens, he claps me on the back and said "congrats harry, you fucking made it." then goes back about his buisness.

I love my boss.

On a side note, I'm gonna go to bed in twenty minutesand I would just like to say that I have NEVER been so excited for temporary mental non-existance. Sweet oblivion of dreamless sleep, I'm coming!

I know what you mean. I hated it when I completely slept through my alarm. The worst is when you go to bed after getting home from work, and like instantly the alarm goes off and it's time to go back to work. I like to enjoy laying down.

Most definitely. I always make sure I have time for a sesh and some music before bed. Don't know what I'd do without my little bedtime ritual

Pay? What? Is it like that win America, operations that you get in consult with your docter cost you money?
In Denmark, these operations are paid for through taxes.

They required me to lose some weight before they would perform it. Partly to make sure I wouldn't stuff myself post-op and rupture, but also because the fat burned first by fast weight loss is around the organs.
That's how I did it, combined with forgetting to eat from time to time.

I am not gonna risk never being able to get this op by blowing it off now because I have had a sudden surge of confidence and a weight loss that's successful so far. I might just lapse back.

To tell you the truth, I am scared out of my mind that I will never lose the weight required for a proper health. That's why I am doing it.

A friend of mine did some truly inspired photoshop work to supplement a ranty comedy article I'm working on. I love giving them a little something extra but I don't have Photoshop and generally suck at computers, so I'm forced to go a-begging if I want anything like this. The finished product is sweeeet and has made my day.

I received a 95/100 on my hands-on final exam. I gave an hour massage to my favorite teacher. She said it was wonderful


Also: scored a 60-bag for two of my friends last night, they shared. ^_^

Would it be too hyperbolic to say that I have completely revolutionized the Anglo and German interpretations of Friedrich Nietzsche?

Because I totally did.

Apparently I managed to impress my bosses yesterday and today I heard that I'll be getting a pay rise for my efforts. That and for doing my work obviously.

What's made my day was the moment when our bird got put in the travel kennel, without bloodshed from the lady from the boarder's (the vet office) and the strange, sweet silence that has followed since the bird has left the house. I do sort of miss the bird though. She may be loud lots of the time but she still has her endearing moments.

Some really cute christmas-decorations. I'm going to make the hut look all happy and shiny.
And I finally got my salary.

Sitting on the deck, having lunch, reading a good book and watching cockatoos in the trees and the cat curled up on a chair.

And the weather is a perfect 22 degrees... bliss...

Louisville got nailed with an ice storm last night. My last day of school (today) was cancelled.

Also: since my parents can't make it to my graduation on Saturday due to my stepdad's emergency gallbladder surgery this morning, my friend Brent and his girlfriend Bethany are going to be replacement parents. Brent's gonna be my mom, and he's wearing a dress. Best graduation evar.

No, I mean Bethany. The fuck you smoking, son? Your Brent is not coming to my graduation. Obviously, it is a different Brent. Who does NOT have a girlfriend named Melanie. Shithead.


Though.. if you and Desp showed up at my graduation in dresses, it would be pretty awesome. I loved that little leopard print thing you were in, tramp.
