The Meandering Mind

I don't like this trend of disappearing blogs. Hopefully in both cases it is just temporary...

Your Existing Situation
Works well in cooperation with others but is disinclined to take the leading role. Needs a personal life of mutual understanding and freedom from discord.
Your Stress Sources
Wishes to be independent, unhampered, and free from any limitation or restriction, other than those which she imposes of herself or by her own choice and decision.
Your Restrained Characteristics
Willing to participate and to allow herself to become involved, but tries to fend off conflict and disturbance in order to reduce tension.
Feels that she cannot do much about her existing problems and difficulties and that she must make the best of things as they are. Able to achieve satisfaction through sexual activity.
Your Desired Objective
Wants interesting and exciting things to happen. Able to make herself well-liked by her obvious interest and by the very openness of her charm. Over-imaginative and given to fantasy or day-dreaming.
Your Actual Problem
Seeks to avoid criticism and to prevent restriction of her freedom to act, and to decide for herself by the exercise of great personal charm in her dealings with others.

I've taken this quiz a few times now, and I'm sure I never chose the same colours in the same order, but it's always amazingly accurate. Except for the "openness" of my "great personal charm" part. The "satisfaction through sexual activity" bit might be a little off too :P

In the process of trying to remove the label from my shirt, I managed to both gouge my finger with the scissors and cut a hole in my shirt. I'm so talented.

Haven't you all missed my insightful posts so much? I know you're all so glad I'm back :P

(Note: the connection between Ween and Francesca Lia Block is that the song "Baby Bitch" makes me think of Witch Baby. I'm not completely random.)

Random weirdness: my brother spontaneously told me all about his love life yesterday. Or lack of it. Aw.

I have nine videos waiting to be watched, and no real desire to turn on the television. Is that good or bad?

I think I might be hungry, because suddenly I'm feeling both light-headed and light-handed. Even though I just ate french toast a little while ago. Mmm... french toast. With raspberry jam and icing sugar. Mmm...

Ween is cool. So is Francesca Lia Block. I should reread those books. Took me long enough to get around to reading them in the first place.

Okay! Food! And getting dressed! Oh, the excitement.

Aw, sarah actually made me cry yesterday. (Not that it takes much, but still.) (Oh, and in a good way. She didn't punch me or insult me or anything.) (Actually, she probably did insult me, but I'm used to that by now. Bitch.)

I figure the 'goodbye' and 'welcome home' hugs are half the point of travelling.

Well, I'm home.

I'm not sure how I feel about it yet. I was looking foward to coming home, and it felt unbelievably nice seeing my parents at the airport (even if they did bring a giant butterfly balloon along with them), and seeing sarah was wonderful (and not just cause she gave me a present {g}), and sleeping in my own bed and having a hot shower was faaabulous. But now I have a few days off before going back to work, and what if everything was just the same as it was before?

I don't know. I don't think having a cold and still feeling kind of sick (I assume it's from the jetlag) is really helping.

I don't feel depressed -- I just don't feel all that happy.

But! On the bright side: SFU is showing "Star Wars: The Phantom Menace" for free on Friday. Free is good {g}. It's really nice out. I have an entire week to do whatever I want. (Well, slightly less than a week. But still.) "Y Tu Mama Tambien" is still out in theatres, so I might be able to see it again. I got a big stack of books from the library yesterday. (So very very nice to have access to books again.) I haven't started watching TV again. Yet.

And I've finally redesigned my blog. I'm planning for this just to be a temporary layout, but with my amazing ability to procrastinate, who knows? At least I've gotten around to adding a bunch of nifty people to my links.
