exhausted
Hey, I'm still alive--more or less. Dad commented to me yesterday that I hadn't written on my site for over two weeks, so I figured I'd better post a little something.
As I've mentioned before, the class I was taking at school kicked my ass. I don't think there was a day in the last five weeks that I got an entire night's sleep. I think I averaged about 5 hours a night. Couple that with the stress of not getting any hours at work (and not making any money) and I've been a complete basket case. Well, the class ended yesterday. I stayed up the entire night to finish my final project. After class, I had lunch with Dad and then I went to work for a couple of hours and came straight home. Of course by then I was soooo tired that I couldn't sleep, so I sat like a zombie and watched stuff on my PVR for about three hours. I finally went to sleep about 8:30 last night and woke up at noon today. I still felt like total shit when I got up. I know you can't make up for weeks of sleep deprivation in one night.
I had a really great birthday, though. I've made some really great friends at school and they threw me a little party. We had cheesecake and cupcakes. YUM! The lady at 7-11 gave me a free refill for my coke. My butthead manager actually made some dough for me to make up for the weekend he screwed me when we went to Colorado Springs (he didn't even know it was my birthday). Later, Dad took me to Hopps for a steak dinner. YUM, again! We had Mike's and my annual party on the 7th--we always hold it the weekend between our birthdays since his is on the 5th and mine is on the 11th. I posted some pictures of the event here. Also, Marcus got me a new scanner the day before at the Apple Store. All in all, it was one of the best birthdays I've had in quite a while. I didn't even let the whole terrorist bombing anniversary thing get to me like I did the year before.
Well, there's more to say, but it's 1 a.m. and I'm getting sleepy. G'night.
