Headaches

So when I lived in my old apartment I used to get bad headaches all the time.  This hasn't happened much since I moved.  Until yesterday, when our internet got fixed.  But I'm pretty sure that the internet does not emit headache inducing waves.  It just distracts me from the fact that I don't have much food at the moment.  But friday is payday and I'll be getting a rather larg check.  I'm quite pleased.  Now to survive until Friday.  But I know I will, water is free and a human can survive three weeks with out food, and I have food.

The Tempest

How fitting that I'm working on the set for the Tempest with the crazy weather outside right now.  I just wish that I wasn't, because I love this weather.  It reminds me that there is more to life that struggles, and that the struggles I have will end.  Plus I just love rain, I'm not entirely sure why.  This week has been stressful, I had to quit my favorite job in order take a job that will give me enough hours to pay for rent.  And the Tempest is going to be the death of me I swear.  I have to cut and arrange and glue down all the pieces for the backdrop.  I just hope and pray that it will turn out alright. I'm sure it will, but I worry anyway.  At least I have patterns for the rocks and plants mostly done.

Family

Well, my family came to visit me this past weekend.  We played Killer Bunnies and watched many movies.  Drama and Thing 1 decided that I should marry every one of my FHE brothers.  Farmer in particular.  Drama went as far as to write out the plan for our wedding, including a reception in the common area at the complex we currently live in.  Drama and Thing 1 have a new word for guys they find attractive.  Salt, as in I (unit) am a french fry and I need me some salt to be complete.  After this discussion later that evening Princess turns to my roommate Lingo and asks her if she likes guys.  It was quite amusing, although our laughter caused Princess distress.  Although she's only 8 and was extremely tired and irratable by the time this incedent happened.

Indexing

I was indexing names today.  For fun, and since I have nothing better to do with my life.  Any way, there was one name that I couldn't read, because it was smeared.  Well, actually there were lots of names that were smudged, but most of them I was able to make something out.  This particular name I could read the first two letters and the last letter.  So I looked up what I was supposed to do with this amount of information.  Since there were multiple letters I couldn't make out I was to use the somewhat standard wild card of *.  This did cause me some concern, since what I had to submit turned out looking like this Sh*t.  to the poor family whose named ended up like this, I'm sorry.

New Month, New Post, more problems.

So this summer has been pretty good so far.  I'm out of work, have $29 to live on until I start working again (July 10), have no internet in my apartment.  Fell into like with a kid in my new ward and had a complete emotional breakdown when I found out that said young man is planning on moving in the fall.  Yeah, I'm not even sure why I admitted that.  My family is going to try to come up for the 4th of July, but I don't think that they will.  And instead of looking for work today I spent 3 hours playing Life with my roommate.  But despite it all, I think that this move has been decidedly one of the best moves ever.  I'm practicing my piano and flute skills again, which have long been neglected.  My right shoulder gets a decent workout every Sunday, I'm on the music counsel and have been the chorister every week since I got the call.  And I've made many good friends, we'll see if they last but for here and now it is a very good thing.

More Twilight Information

So, as some of you may know my cousin was in Twilight.  Well, I recently found out that he was the favorite extra.  He got to be on set every day.  They also were seriously considering him for the part of Jacob, but one of the large reasons he didn't was that he had a mission to go on.  He left the week before the film hit theaters.  Oh, and my cousin is on the back of the DVD cover.
