The library position is open for application until the 17th. So I'm having my mother print out the application for me tomorrow at work. I really need to update my resume with my Cleveland Hall job and have her print that out too... and I have to do a cover letter. I've never had to do a cover letter before.

My new glasses will be ready for me tomorrow at 11. I am looking forward to seeing clearly again, as my glasses have been dirty for about a week and I've just been too lazy to wash them with soap. I'm not sure which pair to start wearing-- the black or the silver? I might start with the silver. Anyway I have to find my camera so I can do a ~*~proper photoshoot~*~ and not just take crappy webcam pictures.

I am having a severe problem with writing. I keep thinking of things I want to do, but I can't just sit down and make them happen. I seem to have lost my grasp of the English language and how to make it do what I want it to do. Usually if I have a problem writing in a fandom, I just go read a bunch of fic to help me figure out characterization and voice a little better... but there's so little Venture Brothers fic that I don't really have that option. And I just don't feel like I'm writing any of them very well.

So, failing that creative avenue, I have pulled out my beading equipment and I'm going to make my girlfriend a necklace or something. Probably a necklace, because I know she wears them, I'm not so sure if she'd wear a bracelet. Although I don't think I've ever seen her wear anything beaded, now that I think about it. Whatever, I'm going to make it anyway and she's free to wear it or not as she chooses. I'm not one of those overly-invested people who gets all butthurt when people don't wear the things I make for them.

I am also considering finding out if Evian wants to come to the drive-in to see Harry Potter with me and Julia in a month. I mean, I know she's a crazy HP fan, and she enjoys the company of other fangirls. She just might prefer to see it in Ithaca. Which is cool, I would understand the desire to see it screened crisply rather than on a drive-in screen. But I might as well ask her, right? The worst she can say is no. (Well, no, the worst she could say is "fuck off, I never want to talk to you again," but I've only had one person tell me that in my life, so I'm not anticipating that happening.)

And I just found out that there's going to be a 15 minute Venture Bros. special on July 24. SWEET. I will totally take any and all new stuff to tide me over until the next season starts, which isn't going to be until at least spring 2012. (sadfais.) Buuuuuut... I am selling back some textbooks to Amazon and making enough money to buy the rest of the series on DVD. So I will be going on DVD specials adventures and probably watching everything with commentary like I started doing with Felix. I am looking forward to that.

Depending on whether I get this job, and depending on how we end up setting up our room, I am kind of considering buying a small flatscreen TV to take to college with me next semester. So Mary and I can watch DVDs mostly, I don't anticipate a lot of TV watching, but who knows, maybe I can actually keep up with one of my shows while I'm at school. I mean, we could watch DVDs on her computer, but the sound is really terrible. And if I get a new TV and an HDMI cable, we can just watch everything on YouTube through my laptop on the TV. I COULD WATCH PONIES ON A TV. I don't know, it's still hypothetical. (or, you know, I could just ask for it for my birthday, since Julia got a freaking 40 inch TV for Christmas and I don't want one that's very big at all.)

I am also coming really close to just wanting to chop all my hair off. I'm trying to grow it out now, but it just looks bad and is hard to do anything with, and I either need bangs or layering or something, my forehead needs some coverage because this widow's peak isn't doing me any favors. I really just want to crop it down to the couple of inches I had it at before I went to Wells... but I have to wait it out, it's going to look terrible before it looks better. I'll figure out what I want to do with it a couple of weeks before I go back to campus, I guess. I should just leave it alone and forget about it for the next two months. But I can't just forget about it because it's making me look bad... ugh. If I get the job, I'll do something nice with it, if I don't, why fucking bother, I barely leave the house except to walk around the block and go to appointments, and god knows my therapist doesn't care if my hair looks bad.

Okay, that's enough random babble for one night, time for bed.

Oh. Julia and I were at the ATM this afternoon and there were cops in the parking lot over, and some people hanging around, and we were like "wtf?" and I said "I bet they found a dead body."

Well, that's exactly what happened. They found a dead body in the Owasco River pretty much exactly the time we were there.

CREEPY

Shocking no one, Residence Life have decided to suck a bag full of dicks, an entire bag of them, and denied me permission to come back to school even one day early. I'm not even going to email back to ask if I can just bring my stuff early, I know he's going to say no. Which is complete and utter bullshit because there will be plenty of students on campus already that week, he's just being an asshole.

So now I have to figure out what the fuck to do in the week between having to move out of this house and being able to move back into Wells. And how I'm going to manage moving without my family members here to help. And where I'm going to put my stuff for that week. And just...

fuck, everything sucks and I'm going to go cry now.

Okay, I'm about ten minutes and three more hair-swipes away from going into the bathroom and cutting my damn bangs myself. I really don't look good with my hair pulled back from my face, and they're too long to just push out of my eyes constantly.

On the bright side, I got my glasses today, so you know what that means: picspam time!

( check out the specs )

Opinions? Which pair do you think I should wear more often? I'm leaning toward the Kliiks.

It was really warm out today, so Julia and I drove up to Cayuga to go swim in Diane's pool... but when we got there, it was really cold, so we just went out for ice cream instead. And I had a plot bunny hit me between the eyes as I was eating my twist. I'd like to get it written, but... eh, I've been kind of fail at writing anything lately.

My parents and Rachael are leaving for MA tomorrow instead of Friday like I thought. So Julia and I are probably going to watch a lot of Venture Brothers on the TV in the living room (we just made it to season 3 tonight) and I am going to try to bake a pie, and Amber will be here on Friday, and Shane will be here on Saturday. I am going to get that last podfic I have to do recorded, and depending on how I feel after getting that edited, I might do one more for Kink Bingo. I've slacked off since I made the bingo, I have to keep up with it if I want to get this blackout.

I have to see if I can get my mother to bring me to Wegmans tomorrow so I can make dinner for my girlfriend. And if she doesn't print out all this stuff I need tomorrow, I need to hook up my printer and probably replace the ink so I can do it myself. Which is just a pain in the ass.

I also need to paint my nails. I came about this close [] to buying more nail stuff that I don't actually need today because I am becoming a sucker for Sephora. It's not a good thing. I barely wear the makeup I own, I don't need to buy more of it.

I did get another Discworld book in the mail today, Soul Music. I'm reading them completely out of order, but I can't really be fussed about it. Weirdly, most of the ones I own now involve Susan Sto Helit. Or is that not that weird? I don't know how important she is. I like her though. So I might spend some time on the hammock tomorrow with that one.
