Like Clockwork

In everyones' life there are those annual events that, although be they unplanned, happen regardless of any productive action take to start on a regular bases. And of course I should add that if by some chance you're able to bypass an occurrence, there will be hell to pay next time it does. 

• Getting pulled over while driving, every six months
• Finding that a piece of chocolate has melted all over ____ (fill in the blank) once a year and always when it starts to get boiling hot outside
• Majority, stop everything, injured, every two years and usually in the summer

The the most part the first two are simply hiccups in your daily life and once the matter has been addressed no further action need take place. For the latter, however, forever comes back to haunt you.

To know me; is to know that I tend to land myself in a Dr.'s office more then say almost everyone else I know,  Starting in third grade, and every other year there after, I can list out the injuries that have forced me to put my life on hold and question just what the hell I doing wrong to deserve this.  Not all of them have been self inflicted nor recurring, but the  ones that are follow me around like a omnipresent shadow.

With my current injury, my ankle, I am but days from being put into a boot/cast, a course of action that I did not really care for the first time around and even less for now that I know what it's going to be like now.  I guess in hindsight there were events that foretold that some major disaster was coming. The spring semester was all but like getting lost in a very dark, deap cave.

Me Vs the World

My next door neighbor is moving out, the cute one across from me, which is not necessary news worthy except for the fact that he only has one other person helping him and they seem to have it under control.  While I, on the other hand, need and increasing amount of people to help move me each and every time I do.  I am willing to admit that I do in fact have a lot of very necessary "stuff," and my neighbor, being a male, does not. I just find it strange when anyone is able to move with less then a small army, or an ensemble at least.  I won't even mention those who are able to accomplish such a task in one day.

Relating to all of the "stuff" I have, I am in the process of trying to contain all of it into my apartment in an orderly manner where every thing has a place and everything is in its place.  I hope to even get ALL of my dishes washed.  Of course writing this blog is just another was to procrastinate, but I have every intention to put on my apron and get to work. 

Right after a trip to Starbucks.

Zooooooooooooooooooom

I rode my bike to campus to work on my A&P review.

But in reality I did it more so to ride my bike down the hills then to study.

I cannot really be guilty thought, It's far to nice outside to stay focused on anything.

So get of of your computers this very moment and go fly a kite, I mean ride a bike.

A Bit of a Crisis

I just switched over after the conclusion of Echoes on WXPN to Audio Visions on  XM so its right around midnight (would that be A.M. or P.M. I can never remember what is which.) So yes by this point I can confidently say that I will have another sleepless night.  Ohh yay.  It really sucks not being able to move and to be active and do things that I enjoy doing.  I start physical therapy wednesday so hopefully they will give me a wider range of movement capabilities, which current limit is walking... and well sitting.  I had a friend that I have danced with forever (its freaky strange on what level we are connected) call this morning and ask if I could re-stage with her one of our early pieces that we co-choreographed together. Of course I could not but it was fun catching up with her non the less.  It sounded as if we were two old ladies (our birthdays are only a month apart) talking about all of our current ailments over the phone.  She particularly enjoyed the pin incident story, but then again most people do.

I think that I might be having a bit of a crisis.  Maybe crisis isn't the right word, but it is as good as its going to get at this point.  It was brought on by the realization that the only way I could pass A&P lab now is if a virus took out the entire network at school and every  grade was erased.  But then of course there are the backup servers that would need to be addressed and I am sure there are always hardcopies for that kind of stuff as well. With that and taking incomplete in all of my dance classes I think that this semester would have been more productive if I did not take any classes at all. Even when I was dancing I did not fell as if I was getting anything out of it.  It was like I was just going through the motions because I had to and not because I wanted to. It's not that I was not enjoying moving but by being forced to take A&P It felt like I was being forced to take my other classes as well.  So I am just questioning how much dance I want to take next fall; which is also influenced by what the hell has to be done to my ankle and how long it's going to take to do it.  At this point I do not know if I want to keep dance as a major at all.  I think that subconsciously I knew that there would be a time when I would have to decide just how much I want to be involved in the dance world, but I always thought/hoped that I would have at least made it through academia and established myself into the field (in whatever way) before I would have to make a decision.

Maybe that this is just the insomnia kicking in and I'm just jumping ahead of  of myself, and I pray that I am.  But like everything else there are always choices in a decision and the path the they lead to is only apparent at the end.

EDIT: The time stamp at the end says its 12 A.M so there you go.

A List: because even pigs fly from time to time

We all knew that it was just a matter of time until something like this was to happen.  Yes, I have made excuses when others come in contact, only to be polite, with no intentions of doing anything about it. But non the less here is a list of just a few of the more intersting things found while cleaning out my car, with captions.

• 9 shoes notice that pairs infur an even number, not and odd
  
• a wire basket, your guess is as good as mine, honestly
• Part of my DVD collection the musicals
• a yoga mat
• a t-t-tambourine,  for all of those improv jam sessions
• 5 socks, see above note on shoes

I'm sure there is more and I'll add if I think of anything, but I really cant be expected to write when The Vicar of Dibley is on and its the animals episode.  Might go into more detail latter about this, but we'll just have to wait and see...
