Missed a lot. Now: Spring Break

A lot has happened since my last post... but I shall describe none of it here right now. Too much to write. I've had so many things I've wanted to say/write on here recently but literally haven't had time to sit down and do it. One thing happens, time goes by, and a new thing happens to make the previous thought I've wanted to get across obsolete. That's the beauty of twitter though I guess - post quick things whenever!

Anyways, yep, a whole lot has gone on: Oscars, my trip to Orlando to visit Lake Hart where I'm considering possibly working after graduation with Campus Crusade, school crap going on, interesting situational stuff and fun things that have been going on, and now tomorrow I'm leaving for Florida for the second time in less than a month. We're leaving at 7am for Clearwater. 

I've been looking forward to this spring break for a while, but the past week there have been things worrying me. First, everyone around me is sick as a dog, including Dan who was quite bad off. So I've been praying I didn't get that, considering I'm a driver on this trip (and that's like a 12 hour freakin drive with a group our size). Then, yesterday, I didn't contract his alement but I contracted something else... semi-embarassing but what the crap. Basically, I constantly feel like I have to go to the bathroom even if I don't actually have to go at all. No pain, nothing, just that I constantly feel like I have to go. This has only happened two other times in my life and both situations involved having too many softdrinks (could be an adverse reaction to caffeine or carbonation or something). Those situations actually caused me to stop drinking soft drinks altogether. And then yesterday, bam, it came back, and it has been torturing me all yesterday and all today. I don' t know what in the world could have caused it. Coffee? Too much Vitamin C (which I have had a crapton of in an effort to not get sick)? I can't think what it could be. But it's ridiculously awful and I can barely even sleep. Hopefully it won't go into a third day and driving at 7am tomorrow for 12 hours won't be hell. I don't want to be "that guy" that is always pulling over. 

Worry number 2 is all the rain. It's ridiculous. I HATE driving in the rain more than just about anything - bad past experiences. And most of the entire drive will be in the rain. I'm wimpy and like to go slow in the rain "just in case" but I won't be able to do that if I'm a part of a caravan. Plus, the constant dripping water all around me surely won't help the problem above if that issue persists. I'm really ready for tomorrow to be over already. Which is sad because I normally LOVE driving long distances and I love road trips. But the rain + medical issues is freaking me out. 

Blah. Hopefully it'll be fine by morn. But I doubt it. But hopefully.

I'm Addicted

I'm an addict to absolutely useless things . . . utterly useless, and utterly addicted. 

Facebook, Blogger, Twitter, Drudge... I'll click between them for an hour even if nothing has changed just to see if something has changed. I'll get on AIM or iChat or whatever and I'll stay on and never have a conversation with anyone for a 2 months. I'll sit in my car and miss the first 10 minutes of class because I'm listening to talk radio and I want to hear the next point. I piddle, going from one useless thing to the next, never doing what needs to be done, all while deadlines grow closer and the ability to complete necessary tasks becomes less and less likely. 

This right here is a good example. Delaying the inevitable. It's a terrible way to keep on living. I know it's bad, it's self-destructive, it's stupid. Yet I continue. I think that makes me weak. Probably. 

The pills will kill the pain... excedrin. Freakin headache. I have about 8 hours worth of homework due tomorrow evening, along with another 2 due in the morning. Tonight I have zero hours (other than the time I'm wasting now) to do those things. Tomorrow I'll have about 4 hours free (relatively). It seems I've waited too long!!

Now, I believe I'll dive into another valentines colored peanut m&m (the best kind) before grabbing an excedrin, a glass of water, and doing last minute prep for the small group tonight.
