Turkey Thursday
Feeling quite sluggish today. The kids were alright - there were 8 at the house altogether today, which actually makes my job easier, because they are entertained within themselves, and not getting on me to let them watch TV when they're not suppoesed to. I had gallery in my drama class today... michelle teased me, which was okay because it meant that she wasn't mad at me. I haven't really been 'bringing' it to that class, I find that I've had to balance my time between a lot of things, and 330 is only one of them. I spent about 2 hours in the costume workshop piecing together stripes for a vest.... a really ugly one too, but that's no fault of my own. I'm sewing it properly, it's just a hidious arrangement of fabric :) Anne knows me by name, which really makes me feel good...I'm not an outsider in there anymore.
I fought with Marcus tonight, same old same old as when we ever fight, but we came to a resolution of sorts, although things are still very cold between us right now. I don't know if we need a break or what...things have been going so good, but today was rotten for us. He's so upset that I'm busy all the time, and we have less time to just chill together. But we talked about how costume and 330 is just october, and it all calms down. I heard about HG... Sunny told Alana, which really was good because I know something now, not completly in the dark.
I watched "bend it like beckham" it made me ache for soccer again...having a team... missing Hillary and Lindsay, my linemates. We practically grew up together. Missing the way it used ot feel to kick my old ball around behind my house for hours...going to practice and having so much fun. Just being a part of something like that...being GOOD at something. I feel like I'm struggling for that now. If I can get in shape I may go for varsity next year, it's never too late. Who knows.
Well...I'm going to Marcus's, after I read Everyman. A good day tomorrow, because I'm going home. Well, not home. But a place that feels like home. I can't wait :) Happy Thanksgiving!
