Bleh
2007-10-19 04:20:00 Just feel bleh. Worn out. Tired. Like a slug. Laying down doesn’t help. Reading LOLcat sites don’t help. Not really sad, just bleh. Afraid we’re coming down with something. Always thirsty, but more so today. Drank like 9 of these 24oz bottles. Just refilling the same one over and over, peeing like there’s no end in sight now too but still excessively ...

Sucessful day
2007-10-16 02:57:00 Got through everything that was on the original list except doing dishes. Quite possibly the most necessary one on the list too. But, we got most of the sewing done. Only thing left is easy to cut/sew. Won’t take but a couple hours tomorrow to finish that up. Then unless we’re all wrong, we’re done with ...

Disturbing dream
2007-10-05 22:20:00 It was horrible. Had there not been sound, it would likely have been a lot less scary. Just a dream, not a flashback as the events of the dream could not have possibly happened to the people in the dream. Hiding it behind a clip, as to not be exceedingly gross or scary for those just ... More About: Dream , Bing
