I am just so out

I am just so out of it today. I decided last minute to drive in to school b/c I just could not stand the thought of the metro (which usually does not bother me in the least). Of course, it was after the 9AM classes had already started (mine was at 10:40), so all the spots near the school were taken, which I expected. So I parked a few blocks away, but it turned out to be in a 2-hour limit zone, not a 3-hour limit, AND the meter ate two of my quarters. Not to mention the fact that, silly me, I somehow totally forgot the fact that I can't go downtown to work on my paper, as had been the plan, if I have my car with me b/c there is NOWHERE to park and I'd have to meter-feed all day anyway. Plus, there was no parking near the school so I couldn't go to the gym after class without feeding the meter a few blocks away, running back to school and working out, and then going back to the car. Not that that would have been tough or anything, but like I said, it was a 2-hour meter and I have actually gotten a ticket here for meter-feeding. (Which was annoying, b/c people do it ALL THE TIME at the meters near school and I am the only person I know of who has gotten a ticket for it.)

So I came home after class... or rather, more accurately, I went to Target and CVS and then came home after class. I bought a Swiffer Wet Jet in hopes to clean the absolutely disgusting floor of our kitchen. The counters are actually in pretty good shape - at least 5-second-rule worthy, but I won't even walk on the floor without socks. So gross. Stupid boys... I swear, if I lived with girls I'd clean more often, but I just refuse to clean up after boys in principle. Bad enough I buy all the cleaning supplies that the one semi-clean roommate actually uses, but I am not going to turn into their mom. And both of them only have brothers too, so I feel like it is not out of the question to assume that their moms did all the cleaning. Growing up, my mom was very good at delegating chores to my dad and if I ever end up living with someone - you know, for real - I am going to make sure chores get delegated too. And if I have sons, they damn well are going to know how to clean up after themselves and know how to keep a house in good shape, so that their future girlfriends, wives, or even girl roommates don't have to do all the damn work! (Wow... getting way far ahead of myself there... did I just reference my sons' wives? What the shit?!)

Anyway, so yes, cleaning supplies. And SweetTart jelly beans (I was bad). And from CVS, I got some hair dye (semi-permanent, of course). It's quite a change, so I have to talk myself into it I think. But I at least made the first step and purchased it. I don't feel like cutting my hair and I've started thinking about tattoos again, so I think I just need to do something that is semi-drastic yet not something I have to deal with for months (or life) if I change my mind. Wow, I am just the most overdramatic person sometimes. Freakin' 28-shampoo hairdye and I'm getting all worried? I'm such a maniac.

I suppose I should get to work, finally, seeing as it's now 3:15. Stupid, stupid outline. At least I am done with classes until March 14. Oooh... I will be 25 the next time I am in a class... :-)

I hear you about the floor. You should look at mine! I live with my sweetheart who is a typical non-cleaning guy and two giant dogs (one of which loves to chew on my kitchen floor). So there you have it, a dirty chewed up floor. Yuck!
