Or more like your ghost,

It's one of those days. Tuesdays are my days to do homework, clean, relax... whatever I haven't done since the last Tuesday always ends up being done on the following. Today I'm working on reading for class, writing a paper, doing two abstracts for Adolescent Literature, looking for 20 poems that I think all young adults should read (which is not easy), and a few other things. I'm trying to clean up the house a little bit because it's truly a disaster zone and our realtor has said that they're finally coming to fix our fireplace, but who knows. I guess we shall see.

The wind is absolutely obnoxious. It sounds like someone is continuously banging on our door or breaking in upstairs. I guess that's why we're under a wind advisory. Not to mention that it's still snowing. It's not really sticking anymore since the wind is blowing so ferociously, but it's snowing none the less. I just want spring. Is that so much to ask? I don't want March snow-madness anymore. I guess I just have to get through another week or so and then I can hope for April showers and May flowers, right? Right.

We're still saying prayers about Clark going to MOS in April. The Corporal who is supposed to contact the SGT for Clark (chain of command) isn't answer Clark's calls or messages. Figures. He's not a very good squad leader. Clark always ends up having to call another Corporal. Anyway. We're just hoping.

I actually slept in this morning. That is, if 9am counts as sleeping in. Luna kept jumping on the bed and looking at me like, "What's wrong with you? You should have been up two hours ago!" I guess stress and good food can make you really sleepy.

Last night I made Chicken Parmesan with mixed veggies (and rice for Clark) for dinner. It was good, if I may say so myself. Then Clark and I spent an hour wondering what we should do for the rest of the night. It's not that we're boring, it's just that we're poor and we live in a boring area. What would you do with that? Sit around and wonder. I think we need to buy more board games or something. Or have another couple over that's poor to commiserate with us. Maybe that would work.

I think I'm a little too low to be writing today. Maybe I'll find time to watch a true pick-me-up movie after I finish all the homework I'm avoiding right now.

Until next time.

We've all got our junk, and my junk is you!
