Oct. 2nd, 2004 11:22 pmBored, so you guys get a random update. Lucky you guys!
I miss my sister. She's moved to Hawaii with the bro-in-law and it's been constant disaster for all three weeks now, and she's wicked stressed out as well as sick from living off fast food and bad room service at the hotel on the army base. Poor baby. It took her almost two years to settle down in North Carolina. Two long, miserable years. Me and her Do Not Deal Well With Change. So now we're just hoping that once her car gets there (mid-October) and her stuff arrives (November), she'll be able to settle in their new apartment and work on rebuilding her life.

kaneko, who for what I can tell has fallen off the planet!! Which is what I expected to happen eventually, considering that she is upside-down and all, but still. Sad. Sniff.
I can't stop thinking about this woman who came into my office the other day. She was like some kind of nerd caricature. Very tall, very very very skinny, with pants and a shirt that were too short, and an ancient sweater. Thick glasses. Tons of barrettes in her incredibly lank, greasy, thin hair. Bad skin. Probably no older than 35. She spoke in this little baby bird chirping voice at a very. very. slow speed. She seemed very intelligent and sweet and I didn't dislike her, but it was a very strange hour. It was like, just by being in the same room with her and having a more forceful personality (and trust me, forceful I am not but wet dishrags probably look domineering around this woman) I had somehow frightened her. There was something about her that made me feel like I was a bully. I was as calm and nice as I could be, but I still can't shake this guilty feeling that I somehow scarred her for life. Very disturbing.
I have this odd song on my computer. It doesn't have a title and it doesn't have an artist listed, and it sounds like it's a performance bootleg, a club show or something. 'Sun sky fall down before my eyes {?} ...Black circles in her eyes {?} ...So my love don't fear your own voice {?}' and then a random group clapping extravaganza. Those are literally the only three lines I can make out. I know I know where it's from but I can't remember and no combo of words brings me the right google results. Anyone know what it is/who sings it?
I need to find my digital camera before the corn maze tomorrow. Now that I'm thinking about it, I'm pretty sure I haven't seen it since the weekend of my sister's going-away party, which was also the weekend I left it out in the pouring rain. It was rescued by my stepdad and I know he gave it back to me, but what did I do with it? There's a reason I can't have nice things and that reason is me.
And now that I've bored myself and everyone else into a coma, I think I need to go to bed. Rest up for wandering through corn and mud for a couple hours! Whoot! (I'm way more enthusiastic about this activity than it deserves, probably. *G*)
