Grass

Well, I am still allergic to grass. I went to a different allergist this morning (Dr. Drain instead of Dr. Morgan). I HAD TO GET UP AT 6:30! What sort of summer activity is that? Anyway, they did a lovely skin test with those cool caterpillar block deals, and I am very much allergic to grass. The gargantuan welt has pretty much deflated and it itches less, but you can still see a bit of redness.

I am also still allergic to cats. I guess there'll be no more Cat in my room. I wonder how he'll handle that.

133+

I now know that I am extremely leet. I began constructing my very own web page with the screamin' html that Joel is teaching me! AND I just made some changes to my page WITHOUT his help! this is amazing.
And now for something completely different....
What's with all of these marriages and babies and things? I just went to another wedding shower yesterday. Already this year 3 couples of my acquaintance have gotten hitched and 4 women-friend-types are with child. (I guess they'd have to be women...hmm)

Let's see just how 133+ i am

A B!

Man, oh man! I just received the first B in my life for a final grade! AND IN MY 2 CREDIT PRIVATE OBOE INSTRUCTION CLASS TOO!!!! AHHHHHHHH. ok, i'm feeling better now, and it is even a B+, so I suppose i'll be ok. I guess I deserve it to an extent; I didn't put as much time into making reeds and practicing those tedious intervals as I should have. I think it was the sixths that really messed me up. I guess this is one more indication that my priority isn't music. enough ranting....I guess, maybe
Wow, it really sounds like i'm a nerd. I know many children would give their frontmost tastebud to get a B+ in something. I don't even know what the rest of my grades are this quarter, I sure hope i don't have to have this agony dragging out much longer. There was a potential to get As in the rest of my classes....at least before finals week. HEY! Cheer up Shelley! You shouldn't be talking about these painful subjects at this time of night/morning....Oh, alright, i'll go to bed. Goodnight!

Home

Well, here I am. My stuff is even unpacked! There sure is a lot of stuff in my room.
Geryond and Cerberus are settling in nicely, and my cat, Bouncer, is glad to have their company. He enjoys following them around when they roll around in their freedom ball on the kitchen floor.
I went down to the vet clinic today to see when they wanted me to start working there, and they said that they actually don't need any extra help this summer. I'm not heartbroken that I don't have to clean kennels, but I am not looking forward to scrounging for a different job.

The tragedy of My Life

I think that this AIM conversation pretty much sums up the exciting events of my recent life, (I'm too lazy to retype it all, so I thought this would be an effective, fun-filled, fresh way of documentation) :

Joel! I just think I did something relatively foolish

what's that?

I sold two of my books back for a whopping total of $6

oh...

one was worth a dollar

well...you can buy two bubble teas...

the guy behind me scoffed when he heard that one was $1, so, I felt dumb that I sold it.
End Part 1

we played Mao at Denny's last night; Pierce hated it. he was mad at me because I kept winning and I guess I wasn't being very consistent, and I kept giving him cards

hahaha

then we played Egyptian Rat Screw

hahahahahahha

and then we ate

him don't like that one

and then Pierce fell asleep...

yeah

so, we moved to another table and threw packets of sugar at him

ah good

and then the server came by and pretended to hit him with a tray and he woke up and looked confused

where was that? Denny's? ah you said that/ok/I'm on the same page now

and then we moved to yet a different table/it was funny/we laughed/and we took pictures with Paul's camera phon/e

quite

and I went to sleep around 3:30

very nice

and I woke up at 8 and couldn't go back to sleep/tragedy of my life

sad

OH/and I went dumpster diving

yes?

and I got a jacket, a clipboard and a large tractor tire tube

ooo

oh, and I got the "Old Faithful" award for band

oh?

it is a pvc pipe didgeridoo/thing/yeah, apparently, I play solidly and am a faithful band member that can blow bubble out of my mouth, and I didn't know this, but out of my instrument too

very interesting

In case you are actually still reading this, Some extra highlights include my acquisition of a case of Ramen and three cans of clam chowder. I also had Chili for brefferes (according to Joel, that is the Middle English spelling)
