It’s official: I did it! November 30, 2007
I think I did more than 30 posts in 30 days, but the point is, I posted at least once during those 30 days. Yay me!
Now back to your regularly scheduled life.
That’s all from where I sit.

Yay! I did it! Can I sleep now? November 30, 2007
It’s the last day of November, so it’s the last day of NaBloPoMo.
I have posted every single day during the month, sometimes 2 or 3 posts a day if the spirit moved me.
Now I can rest, and maybe not post until, um, after Marc’s birthday next Wednesday.
Yeah, riiiight.
I’ll be right back here tomorrow with a post. Just you watch.
It was fun, but I’m glad it’s over.
Until next year.
hahahahaha!
That’s all from where I sit.

Think this should be my Holiday card? November 29, 2007
Originally uploaded by Ms. Stef
I was waiting for Daniel to pick me up from school last night, so I was doing a little, um, “experimentation” with the light wrapped trees in front of the Admin Building. I wondered if I could get a pic just using those lights on the trees. This pic is my third attempt.
Not bad, eh?
I think it’d make a neat Holiday card. I realize that because it’s a cell phone camera pic, that it might not translate out to printed pic that well. I’ll just have to try it and see.
Now, I need to get my ass in gear and finish my outline for Comp II tomorrow.
That’s all from where I sit.

It’s beginning to look a lot like November 29, 2007
Christmas?! (ugh)… it’s less than a month away now and I’m still not ready for it.
Marc’s birthday is next Wednesday. He thinks he’s getting an iPod. And he may, just not from me. If he does get one from Tori and Dean, I’ll get him an iTunes card. Maybe I should call Tori and ask if he is or not.
Jeff has a Zune, and I think that’s pretty cool. Much cooler than an iPod. Those iPods are a dime a dozen now. Everyone has one, so of course I want to be different.
And Rose State is all dressed up for the season with lights and bows and garland everywhere! It looks really neat at night.
I still haven’t gone anywhere near a mall. It’s not the crowds that get me, it’s the lack of parking spaces. Gas is so expensive and driving around looking for a place to park doesn’t help those who try to keep their driving and gas consumption to a minimum.
Last night, when Daniel picked me up, the price of gas at the gas station on the corner of Sooner and Tinker Diagonal was $2.91 a gallon. It had been over $3.00, so I guess $2.91 is a blessing (I know, nine cents, big freakin’ deal).
I’m at the computer lab in the Student Center on campus. My History of Life on Earth class doesn’t start for an hour. I had an errand to run before school, and I got done sooner than I thought.
Better get this wrapped up.
That’s all from where I sit.

I have no business being at school today November 28, 2007
I feel like crap, having caught the mother of all colds. Didn’t help that I wasn’t prepared for the change in the weather (cold and windy) by wearing my pink hoodie. No wonder I slept so well last night! Of course, I have no more NyQuil.
But, I am here because I can’t afford to miss anymore days. The semester only has about three more weeks to go, so I have to get my ass in gear and be here everyday. I thought about not coming on Friday, since Comp II is the only class I have, but I have an outline due for an essay I’m writing about a movie.
Drat. By Friday, I will be exhausted.
This morning I had to suck it up and ask my mom to borrow money. All the money I’m expecting has to go toward my rent, which I fear will be late again.
I hate being this broke! And I hate having to ask my mom for money. I just didn’t budget my money very well this semester, and the problems I was having with the bank didn’t help.
If I have money for Christmas, I will be very surprised.
All the more reason I have to be here everyday.
So I will keep on keepin’ on and get the semester over and done with.
Then, I will sleep.
Maybe.
That’s all from where I sit.

Spam-a-licious… spam-a-lama-ding-dong… need I go on? November 27, 2007
According to WordPress, I have been protected from 960 spam comments since I started this blog.
Nine hundred sixty spam comments?!
And the messages that do get caught are so stupid, I don’t know why anyone would waste their time on sending them, either by hand or by some computer program.
Most of the spam lately have been from individuals with Greek names, such as Mykos, Nico, Apollo (yes, really!), and Skorpios. All one word comments like “nice”, “cool” and “sorry 
“.
Then there are the spambots that bombard you with crap about online pharmacies and drugs of every ilk to fix balding, depression, sleep disorders and male enhancement problems. Those messages come with good ole American names like Bob, Ron, and Mary.
None of these messages originate anywhere near the Greek Isles or the good ole U.S. of A. Try eastern Europe.
Nice try losers.
Akismet does a great job of keeping the bulk of the trash away from my blog.
Isn’t Skorpios an island or something?
That’s all from where I sit.

OMG… the December Birthday Blitz is nigh November 27, 2007
Where’s my December calendar? Is Marc’s birthday really a week from Wednesday (12/5)? And Daniel’s nine days after that?
Help?!

It’s that time of year again… November 26, 2007
by Christmas, I will be SO SICK of this… but until then, enjoy!

BlogFriday: Stupidity November 26, 2007
This was going to be a post about how stupid I can be sometimes.
Then I read it, and it was so whiny I wanted to puke.
If I could go back and change all the stupid shit I did when I was younger, I probably wouldn’t do it. Know why?
Because I wouldn’t have those four young men who call me Mom.
Because I wouldn’t have learned that I am strong, and I won’t dumb myself down for anyone. Not even because I thought I was in love.
Because I wouldn’t have a friend who understood me better than I understood myself. Even when I made a fool of myself dancing with him 5 summers ago.
Because I wouldn’t be where I am now.
Because then, I wouldn’t have met the friends I have now.
Because I wouldn’t be in school, trying, at age 43, to change my future. Just because I’ve been on the bottom doesn’t mean I have to STAY there.
Because, whether people want to believe it or not… I’m not stupid.
Misguided? Yes.
Stupid? No.
All I ask of anyone is to give me a fair shot, whether that is in class, in life, or in love.
BTW, love makes you stupid, but that’s a whole other post.
That’s all from where I sit.

Thoughts from the Big Blue Couch November 26, 2007
What I’ve been thinking about lately:
It’s getting down to the wire at school, and I’ve never been more frustrated. So I’ve decided to take it one day, one class, one moment at a time. Thinking too far ahead stresses me out, and that’s not good for me either.
Now that it’s past Thanksgiving, it’s getting to that time of the year that crass commercialism reigns and people have seemingly forgotten the reasons why we celebrate Christmas to begin with. It has nothing to do with Black Friday, Cyber Monday, or spending more money than you have. It’s not even about Santa Claus and the elves and the freakin’ North Pole.
My mind is so frazzled, that I’m having these really weird and bizarre dreams. I don’t need drugs to go trippin’, I just need to be exhausted enough to almost halucinate.
And why, pray tell, are they always about a specific someone? No random dreaming weirdness for me with crowds of people who have never met each other in real life, just one solitary person, just out of reach.
I’m at school, and it’s getting late. I have a class here in a few, so I’ll wrap up these thoughts from the Big Blue Couch.
That’s all from where I sit (and it’s NOT on the Big Blue Couch )
