Trying to write my english paper, and the tab button sends the top line all the way across the page, so that only one, maybe two words fit on the first line. Crazy. That's why I used to use Word Perfect. I liked it a lot better. But it quit working, so I've been using Word until I can try to reinstall WP. Grr.

Instead of doing anything in theatre today, Katie and I pretty much just bummed around and played with stage combat techniques. Which was fun.

After school, we were working on stuff for the liberal union, and I mentioned something about House, just basically that it was going to be on, and that that was good. A minute or so later, I said under my breath "but they need to stop with the arguing and get on with the shagging" and Katie started laughing. And I didn't realize that I had said it out loud. I love that she knew exactly who and what I was talking about (undoubtedly because I bend her ear with stuff of that sort all the time).

I don't like communities where you have to be accepted to join. What's the point, except to say that you're in this community? Why should I post all kinds of stuff about me, and then have it be rejected for stupid reasons, like people not liking the band you put on your list of favorites or thinking your hair looked funny in one picture. I don't think I would ever do anything like that, if just for the sheer fear of rejection. And of stalkerage, from the picture and info posting.

Because I've got an english thing due tomorrow, of course the internet's going on and off. Grr.

I figure I get the first page done, I can go read a fanfic. Gotta reward myself for getting through this (utterly unfair) assignment.

Oh, I forgot to mention that my english teacher was trying to appear smart today by talking about "Frodian" influences and analysis in Death of a Salesman. Yeah. She pronounced Freud correctly, but then it was "Frodian." And then she couldn't even explain why some critics saw the pen that Biff steals as a phallic symbol. (LOL, though, at somebody asking what 'phallic' meant.)

This Death of a Salesman paper, if I can actually make it work, I think is going to be pretty good. What I've got so far is rambly and off topic, and essentially several different papers merged into one, but I've got a relatively good (IMO) thing going on idea-wise. I got 600ish words done, and decided that that was enough for tonight, as I've got a history test tomorrow that I don't anticipate doing well on even with a full night's sleep (it's essay based, and the first one for the class, so I have no idea what to expect, just that it's about Spanish colonization, which we know virtually nothing about save this horridly boring book that we were supposed to read bits of, which I read the wrong bits of, and now have 50 pages to try and skim through before the test). I probably won't get full credit for the draft (though if I were in Cooper's class, I would, as they only need 300 words) but I don't really care.

I left my biology book at school, forgetting that I needed it, so I've got bio work to do before class also. Meaning I'll have to get up early to get driven to school so I can do it. Meaning not a whole lot of sleep again. I'm going to have to try to get a nap tomorrow/today (Wednesday, let's just say), as I haven't been to the gym in a really long time and need to go, but feel that if I try to go on only a few hours of sleep, I'll pass out on the treadmill.

That's my story. This journal has really turned into "Alexandria complains about school and lack of sleep" with the occasional OMGFEMSLASH!! rant thrown in. I should probably try not to complain so much. I've been complaining about things a lot lately (Broncos trading their offensive lineup, anyone?) and I think that I'm starting to piss people off.

I still have managed to not say any smartassed things to any of my teachers yet this year. Yay for that. (Though god knows I've gotten close.)

Oh, and Tuesday's chimeraism?

Totally had that from the previews. Dunno why it took House and the ducklings so long. Hell, my mom had that from the previews, and she doesn't even read Harrison's for fun. Not the hardest case they've ever come up with.

I was taking a nap, and missed the entire first half of Bones. Sadness.
