Uuuuugh. My back hurts. I really, really wish today was Friday. On the other hand, it's nice to have a weeknight with not s'much homework. Even so. . . why couldn't aforementioned weeknight be warm, or dry, or just *some* form of happy weather?
Hmm. I think maybe Blogger dislikes my shiny eMac.
Anyway, I'm at school, it's my lunch mod, and I have nothing better to do than to blog. I have study hall next, during which I'll probably be reading my painfully wordy AP World homework, since I have nothing else to do. AP is kind of like CTY, only without the adorable German bisexuals, drag day and Soviet cakemix. (Okay, the cakemix is a lie. Read QC. You'll understand.) So it's just the evil readings and quasi-evil teacher. I love Hirota but she sometimes makes my life miserable.
Getting my homecoming dress this weekend, most likely. Suggestions? I'm thinking something long, subdued and velvety to spite the Las Vegas glitter. Fwahaha.

You represent... hope.
You're quite a daydreamer and can be a hopeless

mind being alone at times. You have goals, and
know what you want in life... even if they are
a little far fetched.
What feeling do you represent?

I've taken this quiz before, although it was quite some time ago. I believe I was hope then, too. . .
Someone shut the lid on me *just* in time. Hope is not lost.
Whee, I have a drop today, which means I have two friggin' blocks of non-academic crap at the end of my school day. It's kind of depressing. At least if I have this kind of screwy schedule next year I'll actually have it *free,* not occupied with study hall and whatnot.
Half an hour to do approximately nothing, but with computer access. Hmmm. . .
All of you non-blogdelytes have been de-linked. Blah. If you are on the shout-out list on the sidebar but you don't have a blog, get one, damn it! Seriously, it's just a nice, place safe to rant. What could be better?

Ah, but for all my grumbling, we must remember that someone turned sixteen today. ^.^ This someone is probably enjoying the cast party, take two, at Uno's at this very moment. Rock on with the legal drivingness, Charlie. Mwahaha.
I feel a little better, because the term Schadenfreude was used in Questionable Content (which is linked on the sidebar) today. :)
Ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh. It's probably just my cold, but all of my enthusiasm for Speech and Debate club has been sapped from me. Maybe I'll go next week if I'm feeling better, but blaaaaah, not now. I think it's making me more miserable than it should, that I don't want to go, that I'm just so ickily sick and tired like i am. I want to *do* something and be less of a lazy ass this year. So why did this year have to start off with a fucking headcold!? Graaaah!!
Mmmmmm don't wanna be in school. I am still sick and my nose is all stuffy and ew. Natalie is reading over my shoulder (well not really, she's at my boob level. pfft.) right now and it makes me very uncomfortable! . . . and no, Natalie, I don't need a hug. Pfaw.

I am currently processing the second JLBB (Jezzie's Little Burning Boutique, because Cas isn't the only one with a spiffy CD burner) copy of Charlie's CD, and this one's for Natalie's mother, who is apparently into opera. I'll get it to her during the speech meeting tomorrow night, methinks.

"Some enchanted evening,
You may see a stranger,
You may see a stranger
Across a crowded room. . .
And somehow you know,
You know even then,
That somewhere, you'll see her
Again and again. . .
Some enchanted evening,
Someone may be laughing,
You may hear her laughing
Across a crowded room. . .
And night after night,
As strange as it seems,
The sound of her laughter
Will sing in your dreams. . .
Who can explain it?
Who can tell you why?
Fools give you reasons,
Wise men never try. . .
Some enchanted evening,
When you find your true love,
When you hear her call you
Across a crowded room. . .
Then fly to her side,
And make her your own,
Or all through your life
You may dream all alone. . .
Once you have found her,
Never let her go.
Once you have found her,
Never let her go. . ."

Oh, bah. I do not want to do my math homework. (My only homework, wheehee. -.- Hurrah for study halls at inconvenient times.) I do not want to sleep either, even though I'm really damn tired. 'Cause I wanna see if Charlie is alive. o.o THEATRECHILDE!! Where the hell are you? I have everyone loving your voice. I am burning CDs with all of your songs on them for people. xD Actually only Tina requested one. I let her borrow the CD because she is the type that appreciates and needs good non-ebul music.
When Dad was trying to take a nap this afternoon, I was doing the laundry and singing Some Enchanted Evening at the top of my voice. xD I don't think he heard, fortunately. See what you've done, Sir Hyland? See!?
So yeah. I'm currently at school, and surprising myself by being relatively cheerful. I blame this on Colin. Not that he ever reads my blog or anything! Rar. I should PM him telling him to do so. On pain of death. Yiss.

I am blogging now for a few reasons. First and foremost, I do not foresee myself dropping off to sleep very quickly. I slept in the car and am thinking too much to just doze off.
Second, I am still breathing, which might be nice to know for some of you crazy people. o.O Geez, what's wrong with you guys? Anyway, yeah. Got home from Binghamton safely.
And lastly, Binghamton.
[ really lame ] Charlie, I fully expect you to read this (eventually) and I'd just like to say I love you. And I miss you already, more than I ever, ever have before. I wish so, so much I could just stay with you forever. [ / really lame ] You've got me with the refrain from Suteki da Ne stuck in my head. . .
For those unfamiliar with Nobuo Uematsu:
Suteki da ne,
Futari te wo tori aruketa nara,
Ikitai yo,
Kimi no machi ie ume no naka.
Translation:
Isn't it beautiful?
If we could walk, hand in hand,
I'd want to go
To your town, your home, in your arms.
. . . although admittedly I wish I could change the song to Some Enchanted Evening. I kind of feel like that's our song. (As I finish writing this I hear your voice singing it. I can think of no better lullaby.)
And that basically sums it up. School is going to feel so very, very strange tomorrow.
The political opinions of the aunt and uncle in Nebraska (much love for them) :
So, I want to have us all get along, but it's not fair to anyone if my political opinions are off the table. So, to let you know where I stand, I thought I would let you know that the last couple of days I have dared to wear a Kerry/Edwards button, here in Nebraska, a Republican state. Frankly, the national and local political climate is so negative, I have been wearing this button with some degree of fear, given the Republican intimation that if you are not with us, you are unpatriotic. How horrible to be afraid in a democracy!
However, I feel that the most Patriotic thing to do is to vote, so I openly support my candidate, as all of you obviously do. I was delighted to find out that people come up to me, even here in NE, admiring my button, and asking me where I got it!
In a week, both Howie and I will be volunteering at the Democratic headquarters here. We feel as strongly about this as you all do.
Howie, in an email from him to me last week, following all your discussion, eloquently expresses his answer to the "Why Kerry" question, following.
I figured that indeed we Larson's are opinionated, and I am as stuck on and sure of my stand as any of the rest of you. This is not a forwarded junk email, but directly from us to you! All in the interest of honesty and openness!
Here's Howie's thoughts:
I think the simple answer in this case is that the devil you don't know is superior to the devil you do. Anyone new to a position comes with no proven track record for that position. One cannot say what would Kerry do now in Iraq without acknowledging, by the very question, that US policy there has been an abysmal failure, an acknowldgment that should be laid at Bush's feet, not Kerry's. Senatorial voting records, unfortunately, do have nuances and the voters final position, for the intellectually honest, must look at thiose nuances. I believe the world is one of shades of gray, not black and white. It makes it hard to proselytize but I think that if one truly believes that personal and world problems have their base and answer in black and white- good and evil- than I think their world view and mine are so fundamentally disparate that constructive discussion and debate are probably an exercise in futility. I do think it would raise the stature of the debate if those decrying Kerry's voting record would discuss the bills in full, and not just the bill's title or how it was described in the bylines of the newspapers. I would also like to see Kerry explain the votes in question inn an intelligent and not 3 sec soundbite manner.
Re other concerns:
1) The government awards Purple Hearts, not the DNC or RNC. Kerry got them, Bush didn't. Give it up.
2) What about Kerry and Cambodia? Apparently he wasn't there. How about W and his guard service. There or not? Can we give up these juvenile accusations now? (EDIT FROM ERIN: This last sentence showed up funny in the email, so I ad-libbed.)
3) Reporting for duty and the convention. I think the Democrats clearly felt the election would be based on sound bites and testosterone, not discussion of issues and tried to advertise Kerry as capable of leading as the incumbent. While I think the advertisement campaign has failed, based on Bush's track record, I obviously don't see Bush as an effective leader, either domestically given the fractious nature of the country over the last two years or internationally , given the status of the country in the world. I do , however, think that we al l can have defining moments where our inner self is held open to inspection and, hopefully, introspection. I can easily see this happpening to Kerry during the combat event described. While I am willing to allow that one of these moments may have been for Bush his 911 response, I'm more concerned that what defines him is his initial response to his DWI charges, to deny them because he thought it woulkd be bad for his
daughters to know about them. I think this pattern of denial of facts to promote his beliefs (kinder than agenda) jhas been a recurring theme seen in the President.
4) The vision thing, I think Kerry talks the talk, but I don't know either what his vision will look like should he be elected. I do see the world that the President seems to aspire to create. It seems to be an evangelical, very conservative corporation supprtive of the rights of those who agree with it which is on a crusade (a word chosen not by accident) to lead the world in those values which it determines to be important. It is, in fact, a vision which seems to have no place for the likes of me.
It is because of this that I would prefer the devil I don't know to the devil I do.

I finished all my homework for the weekend (sans Antigone) before not-Courtyard started. Ugh. I know my English essay is okay, but I'm worried about AP. Very worried. I hope I'll have time sometime to look it over, but I doubt I will. I hope Mrs. Hirota-Morris will understand if I want to revise it.
Not-Courtyard was okay. They played a couple of CTY canon songs, but it really isn't the same. There's something about the Great Hall, about knowing you have nothing to lose, about just losing yourself three times during those three weeks. About not really dancing until it gets dark because of the huge windows. About rocking out and being melodramatic to Bohemian Rhapsody. About. . . well. Everything about CTY is just so wonderful. I am pathetic, yes, but gah. If only the world were like that. If only, if only.
Tomorrow: German trip. I must sleep now, as it is midnight and I must be awake in sixish hours. Just like a school day! Sleeping on the bus, anyone?
. . . . . entries for 16.9.04 . . . . .
Right, so this is the state of things:
The only work I have left to do is the introduction to Antigone and my two essays, sans introductions, which I have already written. I have lots and lots of bus/car time this weekend, during which I will read the godsforsaken intro-that-is-not-an-intro. I will abstain from the joy of Courtyard tomorrow to finish up my essays; that is, if I can't finish them beforehand.
I will shortly (within the half-hour) be going to bed. Reading Antigone until I fall asleep. It won't be long. The damn thing is so boring and confusing to a first-time reader that it becomes a blur after a paragraph or so.
I highly doubt I will be attending Courtyard. I blame this partially on my lack of self-restraint, but mostly on the fact that there had to be an episode of West Wing entitled The War Tactics of Ghengis Khan on tonight. And the premier of the new Survivor. And on the fact that my mother alerted me to these things when she *knew* how much homework I had to do. I really do not think my parents are able to grasp how busy I am. o.O . . .
I wonder what would happen if there was an openly gay man on Survivor in a same sex tribe situation.
Right, so it just occurred to me. The letters L and R are interchangable in Japanese. The word "viagra," therefore, would in Japanese be the word "vagina" with a few letters switched around. And then I said to myself, Erin. There is no L in "vagina." You dumbass.
Please disregard the previous paragraph, for it is a spooky little window into the blogger's brain. o.O
And just one more side note - I have to do all my homework due tomorrow and Monday TODAY. If you see me online please kick me. Yes. Come to my house and kick me. Brutally. Oh yes. Mm. . .
. . . or maybe deny me the pleasure of a kick.
Anyway. Just don't let me stay online and goof off. It will be much appreciated come tomorrow when I will actually have time to go to Courtyard.
Eeeeee!
I have been struck with fangirl syndrome. I often lapse into apparently random spasms of giggles and flailing. Teeheehee! ^.^
. . . so yeah. xD I have two reasons for this, one of which you should know, and one of which I will tell you all. The latter of these is the ending of FFX-2. I did not get 100% and I am wondering how the hell they could make it better (without rewriting the dialogue, which. . . well, in the words of Yuna, it sucks). Oooooh ending cut scene! *fangirl squeal!* :) IF ANY GAMERS HERE DO NOT SIT THROUGH THE CREDITS TO SEE IF THERE ARE SPIFFY FMVS AFTEWORDS . . . you must start now. Or be shot.
And I must be off, for I am meeting my mother for lunch. On a side note, New Game Plus is happily absurd. ^.^ I'll see what that 100% ending is! . . . maybe! . . . eventually. . . Kristen, you're never getting your guide back. xD
. . . . . entries for 15.9.04 . . . . .
It took me that long to change Katelyn's link. xD I am such a dumbass. Well anyway, it's changed.
I am very glad I have tomorrow off. If I did not have tomorrow off, I would go completely bugfuck, because I would have to write two essays and do all my other homework on a "school night." The German trip is going to be much more tiring and time-consuming than a school day in any case. o.o
Oh man. This weekend will be so awesome if I live to tell the tale.

Whee. I ran the mile today. (Or rather, most of it. I got icky chest pains so I stopped. I probably could have finished but. . . ugh. o.o) In the interest of self-betterment (or possibly just deep-seeded masochism) I am going to run a mile at least once a week from now on. FOREVER. I'll get mom to hang out at the lock with Buddy and "keep an eye on" me so I don't get "abducted." o.O
On a brighter note, I also went to my first ever Speech and Debate meeting earlier this evening. :) The people who demonstrated were scarygood at it. Kinda intimidating, but hell. My ego could do with some deflating. Gah. . .

"Nightswimming
Deserves a quiet night.
The photograph on the dashboard
Taken years ago
Turn around backwards so
The windshield shows
Every streetlight
Reveals the picture in reverse,
Still it's so much clearer.
I forgot my shirt at
The water's edge.
The moon is low tonight. . .
Nightswimming
Deserves a quiet night.
I'm not sure all these people understand.
It's not like years ago,
The fear of getting caught,
Of recklessness and water.
They cannot see me naked.
These things, they go away,
Replaced by everyday.
Nightswimming,
Remembering that night.
September's coming soon,
I'm pining for the moon,
And what if there were two
Side by side in orbit
Around the fairest sun?
That bright, tight, forever drum
Could not describe
Nightswimming. . .
You I thought I knew you,
You I cannot judge.
You I thought you knew me,
This one laughing quietly
Underneath my breath. . .
Nightswimming. . .
The photograph reflects,
Every streetlight a reminder:
Nightswimming,
Deserves a quiet night. . .
Deserves a quiet night."

"Summer days are gone too soon,
Shoot the moon
And miss completely;
Now you're left to face the gloom,
Empty room
That once smelled sweetly.
Of all the flowers you thought, if only,
You knew the reason
Why you had to each be lonely;
Was it just the season?
Now the fall is here again,
I can't begin
To give in; it's all over.
When the snows come rolling through
Roll into some new lover. . .
Will you think of times you told me
That you knew the reason
Why we had to each be lonely?
It was just the season. . .
