lydialouwho: bad, bad, bad day. care if i complain? if you do, you can just skip yourself right on over this and go about your usual tumblr business. so i usually leave my house at 7:25 to make it to class by 8, right? for some reason, my alarm decides to take a day off, and i end up waking at 7. so much for a shower… i get out the door at 7:30, rushing to make it to my 8:00 art history...

squeak.
so we have a mouse in our house. i saw it scurry across the dining room floor last night. i love all animals, and i hate to have to kill it, but i cannot have it eating my expensive food and scaring me to death. i’m gonna have to keep my life cereal box in the bed with me at night so i can be sure he doesn’t get into my favorite food. ha. i tried setting a mouse trap tonight, but...

In this moment, I am happy.

i had a wreck today. i never want to drive again....
(via lydialouwho) yeah, i’m sure you’ll look real cute, riding down highway 43 going about 15 mph with traffic backed up behind you and your curls blowing in the wind..

phone home
my phone conversation with my beloved sister last night. *phone is ringing* *sister picks up phone* Lydia: You know better than to call at a time like this. “Time like this” meaning American Idol time. she then proceeded to tell me to call back after 8, which is when the stupid show goes off. great to know that i’m important to my family.

throw myself into the wind.
whoever invented endorphins is a genius. i felt tired and gross before we went to the rec center tonight, but now i feel great and limber and happy. it’s like drugs, only better. so now i’m sitting here watching my female lover, brandi carlile, on youtube. about to dry the hair and get in bed early. yay. shout out to my exercise buddy, carleeeeeeigh hollllley who has the hottest...

post performance
well the performance is over.  i was terrified.  as in, cold hands, red face, shaky voice…but everyone was so complimentary and nice…even my teacher thought it was good.  so we’ll see.  i hope that my confidence will grow as the semester continues.  eep. anyway..i’m off to destroy the mtsu budget by printing off way too many unnecessary things.  take that!

Roommate:
carleighholley: Laura, are you cooking doughnuts? Because that’s what it smells like. And if you are, you should bring me one. I’m in my bed. Thanksss. Carleigh, I don’t even know how to cook donuts, but if I had, you would have been the first one to sample them.  It was probably the turkey/cheese sandwich I toasted in the pan for lunch.  Sorry to disappoint.

passing
dear j. roberson: i am heartbroken to hear that you are not here any more. you were a blessing to so many people, and i will miss having you open the church door for me in the future. i’m sorry that you had to leave in the way that you did. you had one of the kindest hearts i’ve encountered and i sincerely believe you happily gave all of yourself to the people around you. may...

i think i need to stop following gluttonyisabliss because it provides me with temptation which i cannot avoid yielding to. people who work hard on the elliptical machines at the rec center do NOT need to come home to a dashboard full of chocolate chip cookies and blueberry muffins.

I WILL be productive today. I will, I will, I...
(via carleighholley) productive meaning a shopping trip to forever 21 and BAM. right? ha

concession.
i’ve got a pot of vegetable beef stew on the stove, and plans to dominate the rec center in a little while. maybe this evening will be good, but i’m not counting on anything.

and we'll swing.
my bf carl and i are going to the rec center tonight for some intense exercise. finally. i’m ready to start feeling better. now if we can just avoid the temptation of mexican food… my boyfriend lives next door to me, and when his band practices, i can hear it VERY WELL, as my window faces his house. they are practicing now for a couple of upcoming shows, and they are playing my...

catch you up to speed.
well i’m sitting in the library…my next class is at 4:10, so i’ve had a two hour break in which i have to entertain myself.  this break will eventually be beneficial for things like writing and reading and working on assignments, but right now it kind of stinks to have to find things to do in the library. i might hide away in the shelves for awhile and just read.  i didn’t...

carleighholley: I need a cut and color. And this whole “no income” thing is becoming a problem. no. don’t. you get what you pay for…usually.

dear mr. president, good luck these next four years. i hope the media is merciful to you- when you mess up, when you have lapses in judgment, and if you have days when your public speaking just isn’t up to par. i hope that your decisions are based on the good of all people everywhere, not just us as americans, and not just for certain groups of people. i pray, for you, patience, wisdom,...

i could probably pee my pants accidentally before every kol show i go to. i cannot tell you how much i love seeing them live…and how excited i get. i’m headed off to louisville tonight with the other two members of the official kol crew, michelle ma belle and jenny. it’s going to be a great night, and i’m sure i won’t get home before daylight. and then i’ve...

home is where you rest your bones.
i should make it a rule that i never go a whole day without checking tumblr.  it’s overwhelming to come back to so many posts.  i know everyone has this problem, some more than i, because i follow about 25 people. i’ve been in alabama for the weekend.  it’s been ok, except my dad has been sick and hasn’t been in on all the action.  he had to skip church both times today...

do i make you proud? am i your pride and joy?
i’m in a pretty shoddy mood right now. my best friend is in alabama, having a hard time with a very special loved one who is sick. i’m hurting for her. my mind is so clouded with all kinds of different thoughts. i’m just not sure that i’m where i need to be right now, and it took my own mother to help me realize that. i’m just going to give it some time and see...

a load of $#!&
the legal system is screwed up when it comes to divorces, alimony, and the splitting up of possessions. the fact that a woman can cheat on her husband, drag his name through the mud, treat him like dirt, and then expect HIM to pay for the lawyer she is using to drain him of his hard earned money is a horrible concept. but it is so true. i’m seeing it happen in my own family. the husband...

top 5 stressors:
1. school. hands down the most stressful thing i’ve ever been involved in. 2. money and finances. 3. work and the lack/abundance of it. 4. family problems. 5. relationship (boy) drama. —which i’m largely free of at the moment..thanks mst. :) i’m just trying to breathe and think positive thoughts. i hope i make it through this semester.

trade off.
my boyfriend is trying to gain 20 pounds. i, on the other hand, would love to lose 20 pounds. there should be a way to just swap. i give him twenty of my hard earned pounds, and he takes them and loves them. because right now, i’m hating the 20 pounds. see? someone else needs them, so they can be appreciated and utilized.
