It's gonna be warm today.
Blueberry Watermelon Fruitopia is a wonderful thing.
Crackers are also spectacular.
Just look at that sunshine! Makes me wish I could be awake and outside for it.
I'm sleepy though. Bedtime!

Spine
What does Becca have in common with a sea cucumber, a jellyfish, and all insect species?
Biology students hopefully got this one...
She has no SPINE!
Friend suggests activity that Becca knows she will not enjoy.
Does Becca say "no thanks, I'm not interested"?
No, Becca says sure, agrees to go, drive everyone, and takes to crying inwardly.
There is a reason she does this, and Dr. Anjelica Milanovich is primarily responsible.
Knowing the reason doesn't make it any better.
*Kick self*
*Kick Dr. Milanovich*
*Kick wall*

I over socialized this weekend.
It is astounding how little time I can spend in a group of people with out getting pissy. Let make this easily mathematical.
x = the number of people I am with, myself counted at one, max value being 10, because after that I got nuts anyway. "x" is actually an interesting calculation in itself, because some people are worth more than one and other are worth less than one. In general:
your x weight= (-1)(number of years I've known you]-(your minty freshness %)/(10)+(0.5)(the number of penises you have)+(the avg number of cosmetic products and tools you use daily)-(0.2)(how much I talk to you on a scale of 0 to 10)+(2)(number of times you curse in an average sentence)
y= how annoyed I am on a scale of 1 to 18.
After 24 hours,
y = 2x-1
Soo, if I am with 4 people for 24 hours, at the end of it I will be a 7 out of 19 on the annoyed-ness scale. Thus I am generally a misery to be around (you know, more than usual) and I apologise to all of those whose lives I have darkened.
Now you can all calculate exactly how much you piss me off... lol. Enjoy. I'm making cookies.

Therapy
Is good. I get to go talk about myself for an hour :)
I'm so excited for life right now. I'm leaving a lot of things I don't like and starting a lot of things I think I will like and I know I've said this before but I'm so happy about it. I don't remember a time when I've viewed a change this big with so little apprehension.
Maybe I just feel good because of the sunshine.
But good feeling is good feeling, and I will take what I can in that respect.
Also this weekend promises to be half decent. A friend issue almost made me angry. Actually, it did make me angry so I had to take a time out, tell myself to get a grip, and now I'm not mad. It's kind of nice to let some things slide in favour of enjoying the present and the company of good friends.
I'm actually sitting in a Williams right now (the one on the corner of University and King) and there are the most hilarious guys sitting at the table next to me. The one guy came in first and was kinda sitting awkwardly waiting. Then his friend came in and they had a discussion about him being so commonly late. He also forgot his wallet, so the friend who had to wait also has to pay. Heh. Now I am listening to them talk about their friends. It's PEOPLE LISTENING!!! They are going to Value Village tomorrow at 11... ooooh I want to staaaaalk!!!! I am so creepy! heheha! Unfortunately I am busy.
Nerd points for linking back to my own blog... I'm sorry. I just couldn't find the original source.
Today in therapy we discussed a little bit more of the difference between thinking and feeling. It came to my attention that sometimes I get those things confused, and a lot of things that I believe I am thinking I am actually feeling.
Example: I think there is justice in the universe. People who do bad things will get punished and people who do good things will get rewarded. Most people believe this actually. In our experience of life, however, there is little to no proof of that being a valid view. So really I "think" that life is unfair, but I "feel" that there is justice.
Ain't this a conundrum?
Can you tell I've had a bit of extra caffeine?
Also, linking back to my own post forced me to read a bit of blog backlog (fun to say!). I have the maddest mood swings don't I? I should go through and look for patterns...
I've recently become fascinated with the scientific method. I know, I know, you want me to go nerd on someone else. But tis so coool!! It's the most logical way to approach anything!
See something weird
Think about it for a while
Guess at why it is how it is
Test your theory
Think about your results for a while
If your theory is wrong, try a new one
If your theory is right, find something else weird to experiment on!!
Is it not lovely, lucid, and logical? I firmly believe that the reason I am good at my job (side story: my foreperson told me in front of my entire shift that I had the best efficiency of the 25 or so people I work with! It made my day!!) is that I employ this method whenever I find a problem. I am not mechanically minded, but I did alright I think. I am not a bit annoyed to be leaving a job where I actually did well and made decent money.
The Dooly's pool hall across the way is advertising a "ladie's" night. Ooh, my grammatical soul!
Time to go fetch a friend! Hurrah!

Well frik!
You remember the real batman, I'm sure. The one who actually looks like he's part bat. The one that I'm paranoid about.
When I woke up like 20 mins ago I found two parallel cuts on my wrist, about 0.4cm apart and 0.3cm long. Like suspicious little tooth marks....
I'm not actually that paranoid. I assume I just didn't notice at work that I scraped myself on something or poked myself with my knife. I've been getting clumsier with it lately.
That's still a bit creepy eh :D
Do you ever have a day where you know that no matter how much you get done you won't finish everything you had to do? That's today for me, and it's not entirely my fault. This whole week is a bit frantic.
I find that I accomplish less in these scenarios because I'm like "Well, if I'm gonna be behind I may as well truly screw myself over". You know, typical logical response :P
So now I must scamper off and try to accomplish things. Bleh.

Paranoia
Have I mentioned the REAL bat man?
The man who looks like he is part bat?
It's theeeee most terrifying thing ever.
I saw him at the mall
And then I saw him at the home show.
He is stalking me.
Ok: Imagine a cross between these two images and you will be close to what he looks like...
(Minus the metal claws (I hope!))
DO YOU SEE WHY I AM SO CREEPED OUT!!????!!!
If I see him again I will for reals freak out. More.

Pollination
Is really cool.
I really want to try and figure out a way to get a bumblebee colony living in my yard.... I heart bumblebees. And they are endangered, so I will be like a good person or something ;).
Also, frekken BEAUTIFUL DAY!!!! Tshirt and windows down in the car. There is no reason to be sad, because the earth is happy today.
