Guests, like fish, begin to smell after three days.

There are only three days left until I can go home for the first time since the semester started. 

Obviously I am in a much better mood.  Things have been going very well for the past few days; I've gotten in some good writing - so much angst, oh my god - and things have been passing by pretty quickly.  As long as I ace my math test tomorrow, this week will be pretty much awesome.  I'm going to head home on Friday after my psychology quiz, and even though the seven-odd hour drive is going to be pretty awful, I'm so excited for it.  I can't wait to just head down I-10, cruise down the bumpy Louisiana roads, and head home.

I'm mostly excited because I want to see my friend.  This break isn't going to be our longest, but it's definitely going to be fun; the night I come home, it is quite possible that we're going to go clubbing.  We went clubbing once before, and while we were painfully overdressed, we looked so good.  Hopefully this time I won't have to go painfully overdressed.  I like dressing down just as much as the next person, thank you.  Jeans and t-shirts are the staple of my wardrobe.  Actually, shorts and t-shirts; I'm not gonna lie.  The weather has been fabulous for the past week.

I mean, it looked like ti was going to rain yesterday, but then it almost always looks like that on Mondays.. It's weird.  But it didn't; the clouds burned off, and today there isn't one in the sky that I can see.  It's so blue and bright and crisp; I love it.

Writing has been going so well this past week too.  We've gotten so much done - we're so close to being done with part five for Reytaio and Solarim, and I got a very long spiel done with my pirates.  They're so depressing, though!  Part of the reason Solarim is so unhappy is because his best friend dies - but his best friend has a lover, you know?  And that lover is my character, Chex, so I spent some time figuring out exactly how he was going to fall apart after Juno died.  He's a pirate, too, so I have another pirate character who tangled with Solarim for a while come back into the picture... It's so interesting that we created these characters on such a whim and they have the potential to be so deep...

I love it.  It's been a great week and a great weekend so far.  Even today, my biology was canceled! That might mean I get to go out for coffee instead of going to classes or doing math homework - though I do need to do both of those things eventually.  I need to get everything fixed for the weekend so that way we can just hit the road and not have to worry about complications or anything.

I'm so excited!  I can't wait to go home and eat real food and hang out with friends... It's going to be wonderful.  I mean, seeing my family is a bonus too - especially my kitties! <3  I love my kitties so much - and we're probably going to sit down and figure out where we're going to live next fall, too... Picking out an apartment.  How fun!  

So pretty much I'm in a good mood today and I don't want anything to ruin it.  So before I get angsty or sad, I'll quit my blog today and just find something else to occupy my time with at work.  Because honestly, I sorted four papers today and put a binder on the shelf.  I have a really difficult job, huh.

PEACE.
