Today is my mid week day off. And by day off I really mean, do all the shit you haven't had time to do the rest of the week. Meh. Yesterday I went to Talking Leaves on Elmwood in hopes of getting my books for some of my classes. Unfortunatly, the text books are only held at the Main St. store, so that is where I am off to today. I also plan on making a stop at Office Depot to buy a stapler, because everyone needs a stapler.
Unfortunatly, Felly is also gone today and I have therefore temporarily reverted to my old habits of sitting in front of the computer for hours completely oblivious to the outside world. I do little things like, one more song, one more video, one more journal entry and I will go, so this is my obligatory get off your lazy bum and get moving post.
Adventure Time!

I was all by myselfCategory: books
(e:fellyconnelly) has her first day of work today. she is gone and i miss her. so very sad indeed. i don't have class till 4:00 which means I have some time to kill. I do believe i am going to go to Talking Leaves to pick up some books I need for a class and hopefully start reading right away. I also have two books that I am currently reading which I would like to finish sooner rather than later when I am totally swamped with school work that I never want to look at a book again. that would never happen, just kidding.

First DayWell, somehow I survived my very first day as a grad student at UB. It was surprisingly painless and actually rather invigorating. I almost forgot how easily excitable I am when it comes to certain subjects and just the simple act of being in a classroom brings out a certain part of me that is faily impossible to access without actually doing it. One Prof, Alexis De Veaux is like, amazing. I think I am in love. And yes, you might imagine I am one of those students who always falls in love with at least one of my professors each semester. Don't worry Felly, its purely academic.
And I am the luckiest girl ever because I come home to the bestest girlfriend ever who has food waiting for me and even does the dishes.
I am looking forward to tomorrow. I am taking a class called Black Women in US History, which I am hoping won't be a boring history class (sorry (e:james)) but will rather be exciting and intriguing. We shall see. One more class on Thursday and thats my schedule. Sounds easy for now. Of course when the 20 page papers get closer to being due, I might change my tune.
Oh yes, and I happen to have an (e:strip)per in one of my classes. I don't remember her (e:) name but, Hi Swati!

Well James, I must admit I do get raging hardons quite often, but medieval Holland? That's pushing it.
And...yes tinypliny that is her and yes imk2, and I am the what is now technically called the "global gender studies" program, aka women's studies.

History? Boring?
I am never talking to you again.
Seriously, if you don't get a raging hardon reading about the regional economies of medieval Holland then there is something seriously wrong with you.

That History class sounds really great. I didn't get to take any Black History classes. What a shame.

Oh I dunnoLet's see here, Arts Festival. Pretty fabulous I must say. Fascinating little fiesta. We watched some belly dancing which is always a good time, but I think the two best things I found were: 1. Loganberry Slushy and 2. Artichoke French. It was uh...artichoke hearts I think covered in some saucy stuff with a little piece of bread on top. I really like artichokes. Who knew. And loganberry's, according to (e:fellyconnelly) are some Buffalo thing. It didn't taste especcially special and I would have been just as pleased if the flavor was "red" but either way, it was cold and refreshing and the closest thing to a sno-cone I could find.
This is also strange.
I just posted a (ridiculoulsly long) comment on (e:stella) 's page and although it does not show up on the entry or on the recent entries thing, it does show up on the recent comments box on the main page when I sign out. I am wondering where it went, if it went somewhere at all? My computer doesn't always seem to get along with Estrip for whatever reason. So uh, if it is not where it is supposed to be, I don't know why but, my bad.

imk, and perhaps stella, seem to be having missing journal entry-itis, so i would say it's not just you.

The comment issue is not on your end. Not sure.. I see the comment you are speaking of on the home page comment section. Checked IE and Firefox. I clicked on the "more" to see if it would bring me to Stella's page, but it did not; it just returned back to the home page. It appears that it may have been deleted from their page? or lost in oblivion. Maybe something else.. Anyway, all other comments and such appear to be working.

I looked at the cat's post and it isn't there but I have no idea why. If you just wrote it then i don't get why it isn't there. Sometimes someone can delete a comment but that doesn't seem like that could be the case here. Also if you post a comment and the person makes there journal go to draft mode or delete the journal then the comment still shows up on the comments page but again that doesn't seem to be the case here so I don't know what to tell ya. There is also an option to not except comments at all but there is allready a comment on there so that wouldn't be it. I don't know enough to figure out what happened (e:paul) or (e:theecarey) might be able to figure it out it could be the way (e:strip) and your computer works.
In terms of the festival I'm glad you had a good time and hope you enjoyed the belly dancing even though I wasn't sure if it was you or not it was nice to see that you two go out and explore and have a good time in Buffalo. Logan Berry being a Buffalo thing is kinda a myth but also kinda true. The first time I had it I didn't like it it was over in Canada and at Crystal Beach (Not that I remember it being there). That crystal beach logan berry some came out with is to strong for me and that is how I remember the stuff from Canada. But Aunt Rosie's loganberry may have been in Canada not sure but it tastes different then the canada stuff it is very good and there is also some type of lemonade sort of stuff they make. If you want Aunt Rosies (how ever it is spelled) anywhere else in the country you had better have some one in Buffalo buy it for you and send it. I have found that like some soda or pop it often tastes slightly different.

Commerce TherapyCategory: freedom
For lack of anything better to do, coupled with the fact that I have some extra cash that I enjoy getting rid of, I took Felly to the mall yesterday. Really what it came down to is I hate spending MY money on clothing...I can't help but brak it down like this: one pair of pants = 3+ hours of work, etc. Terrible way to live really, but anyway. Felly faired fairly well (hehe) considering she HATES shopping, and she even found a pair of pants for work at Old Navy. I hate shopping also and usually can't find a damn thing that I like, but I was lucky enough to buy 2 pairs of jeans and a pair of waterproof winter boots and a free tank top from Old Navy for buying the aforementioned jeans, which I am sure every other girl this side of the Mississippi now owns also. It's fine.
School starts tomorrow. Fabulous I think. I am sure it is going to take some getting used to not being with Felly 24/7 I am sure we will get into a nice little domestic routine within a few weeks. She starts her job on Tuesday, so it is all working out quite nicely.
Finally, thanks to everyone for truly showing us a good time on Friday night. We got to see a little bit of a bunch of different bars and we even got to dance! I love dancing. Really.
Now we are off to the Arts Festival. I am excited.
