Suerte Negra - Black Luck

1. Bad days at work - complaining clients, absent boss, overworked and tired, errors right and left.
2. Transcripts from Univ. arrived the day of last normal registration (as opposed to "late"). Home tried to call work but we were too busy to hit the call waiting, and Home didn't think of leaving a message on the cell. Registration, of course, closed at 5, but I worked til 6 and came home to a pile of transcripts by my table setting.
3. Boyfriend's house was robbed. His tuition payment, due the 30th, was stolen (he was getting ready to turn it in, and thus had it stashed away).
4. Got an email from an overseas friend. Said friend was apparently struggling with a dangerous kidney stone for the past few months and had to defer travel to the U.S. until next Spring.
5. Fighting with family and H.
6. Late to dinner with Lagarta on Tues. due to family trauma. No hummus pizza in sight.
7. Creepy under-the-skin foot rash. Itchy hands.
8. Mouse still not working. Ready to kill inanimate object.
9. Feeling generally neglected and lonely, but sooo antisocial at the same time.


Brightness seeping through the cracks:
1. L.B. is taking courses as well! Score!
2. CDs arrived from Amazon...oh, man, just remembered something. Pucha.
3. Lagarta and I had a great conversation.
4. Talked to Salvo.
5. Still addicted to Rockstar, but less so to something else... ;-)

*Sigh*.

Temporary Soundtrack: "Leg of Lamb" from the Queens of the Stone Age, off of Rated R. Which, amusingly enough, has no Parental Warning sticker.
Quote Trapped in My Head: "My dear, you may quite possibly rock the socks off me." - L.B.
What I Learned Today:
A mondegreen is a misheard lyric.
