At least now I have reasons.

For being antisocial and for doing less than well on AP work.

The week from hell I'm-going-to-shoot-myself-in-the-face or perhaps the self-inflicted-pain week. It's like when buddy razor says that 'it's down the road not across the street'. I'm thinking of it in those terms. But as with all things, time keeps us movin'.

Let's sum it up.

The Week of Midterms.
The lack of not studying and falling asleep attempting to write an essay (but thankfully waking up at 6:30am to finish it). These items are not the best quality of my AP work. Actually, I'm really just trying to avoid the thought of what kind of grades I will receive. A potential ouch.

The Week of the Equine.
Said equine is on its path to becoming the love of my little life. His work under saddle is terribly horrific and some gigjingymanotgood on his right hind is somewhat concerning, but he has already established that I am his woman and therefore he must come and answer when called. Despite the fact that I am gigantic on him and continually impressed by the smallness of his legs and feet, we've taken to each other like two fish out of the water.

The Week of Equine verses Man.
I should have found myself an equine like this a long time ago. I was never intended to be in relationships with the male species. I'm daydreaming about all the trouble I would have stayed out of if I had been solely involved with equines. Tant pis.

The Week of Nice Gifts.
Like the all-expense-paid trip I get to Mexico in December. The fam is like...what?! Yeah, I'm like 'what?!' too.

The Week of the Loss of a Good Friend.
Maybe I'm just selfish. I mean, I think all of humanity has elements of selfishness. I would like to relate it to my pondering of how to create a political system that actually functions properly. I concluded that if I were to find a way to create some sort of system I would be filthy rich. But then I realized that it's not possible because people will always be greedy and the likes. Ok, this is not self-justification for my actions. Honestly. I've somewhat exhausted this topic in my head. In the wise words of my mother: 'when you make a mistake, admit it, fix it, and move on. Don't waste a lot of time, energy, money, and/or other resources trying to defend a mistake or bad decision.' So that's the way it goes.

The Week I Answered a Question Right in IR (aka Stats class).
This deserves mention because my futile attempts to contribute have been ruthlessly embarrassing. This week the tides turned, maybe it was the crapiness of the week, or my lack of fear for doing anything wrong (since really, what did it matter if the week got any worse?), or maybe because I'm just learning how to milk the system, either way I answered more than three questions. Huzzah.

The Week of the Sea.
Seriously, 5 weeks is a long fucking time. But on the contrary, I'm too obsessed with the equine to really care a whole ton. It's the way things in this world conspire.

The Week of Poverty.
I'm currently accepting monetary donations of any size. Seriously, whos idea was it to purchase said equine?


I suppose in retrospect the week wasn't so bad. I mean, I got a horse and that's something that has been on the life experience list since before the list even started. Well, I guess it's good to mix the good with the bad. Maybe I'll get bucked off tomorrow.

Meanwhile, I'm practicing my culinary skills by making brownies tonight. My Friday nights are seriously out of control. ('mom, why won't the middle of my brownies cook?!')

Oh life.
