Hyena Shots

I was shot in the leg today.

Of course it was with this little spring cannon thing in Physics, but it still hurt. I also ripped up part of my finger nail on accident and that hurt more. In fact, that still hurts even though I did it at eight thirty this morning.

I am having one of those days where I have eaten way, way too much. My stomach hurts, and I feel slightly ill. I wish very much that I had had water with dinner, instead of a chocolate shake.

I am tired of being cut off in traffic by people with bumperstickers that I disagree with. Hey Bush-voting-war-supporting-SUV-driving-Christian guy-- cutting me off, flipping the bird and tossing your lit cigarette into the dry leaves on the side of the road? Classy. Seriously. Kudos.

I have an affinity towards cream colored lace, but I don’t wear it. Ever. I don’t know why this is, because every time I see a little ruffled skirt with the stuff I go gaga, but it stays at the store. I think I’m afraid that I’m not female enough for that and the sale’s people will know. More likely, it’s the fact that if I bought it, it would probably hang in my closet for three or four years before going to the goodwill without ever seeing the outside of my home in between. I need to really start wearing a more varied wardrobe.

I love the word wardrobe. It makes me think of magical hospitals with wizard doctors. I bet lions would fare a lot better in their war against hyenas if they would just set up some field hospitals. I’m still on the hyena’s side in the Lion-Hyena fight though. Any animal which kills it’s siblings before it’s eyes are open has got to be one tough cookie. Take that, you giant yellow pussy-cats.

I’m slowly being won over by the color purple. Seriously, now that I’m getting over the whole Barney association thing, it’s not really so bad. Just please, don’t combine it with bright green. That’s just weird.

My favorite kind of ice cream at the moment is cotton candy, but rainbow sherbet is starting to catch up now that the weather is getting warmer again. I spent a good fifteen minutes laying in the sun today after class and it was wonderful until our dog Sheila put her head on my neck and tried to use her chin to drag me off the hammock.
