I really hate being sick. I got sick maybe once last year, and i was working retail. Now I've got a cushy desk job and I'm getting sick every other week. And not just 'I've got the sniffles' sick, I mean 'under 3 fleece blankets shivering' sick. UGH. I'm almost to the 3 month point, after that I'll have sick days. And I'll actually be able to stay home when I feel like this. I stayed home yesterday, but I couldn't today. I need the money. Plus I would have felt guilty not being at work. Hell I felt guilty about it yesterday and I was sitting on the couch in misery all day. Ugh, I shouldn't be here. My pharmacy isn't helping. My voice is so hoarse, which is really bad when your job is answering phone calls. Plus my period started this morning (3 days fucking early!). My boss told me that if I didn't think I could make it, I should just go home. Problem is that I carpool to work so that's not gonna happen. Unless someone wants to come pick me up and drive me home, which not going to ask her because GUILTY FEELING. Anyway, this is just me rambling because I feel like it and it's keeping me distracted from how bad I feel. At least I know my fever is breaking (even if it's just because of how much I'm sweating). Ugh. |

...eh, I was bored anyway. ( meme time again )And no, I'm gonna be a lamer and NOT TAG ANYONE because geez. Do it if you want to. I'm feeling the November Gloom taking me over. Every day this week, once the sun goes down I've just been...disinterested in everything and ready to crawl back into bed. Hopefully going to MN to buy fabric and meet up with Zen will be a lovely bright spot this weekend. Current Mood: blah |

Printing is totally free on this campus. This is kind of terrifying to me. There's nothing stopping non-trads from printing out long wikipedia articles 5 million times a day. (Oops, lol, I hit the print button 8 times!) And if that doesn't weird you out, there's an unguarded color printer in the classroom next door. So when you have a class in that room there's always people interrupting by wandering in to pick up some pointless picture they decided to print. Investigation into FVTC's paralegal program is underway, may be taking a couple such courses this spring(concerned Milwaukeeans: if I enjoyed the field, a transfer to MATC wouldn't be out of the question). If money/time weren't an issue, I'd return to the UW system and pursue library science. Alas, I'm tired of being broke all the time. In b4 people telling me my soul will be crushed. |

psych. terminology, etc.
Hello, RS major at Humboldt State, here! Does anyone know if there's a term in psychoanalysis that describes the tendency to focus one's attention on one narrow aspect of being, ignoring all other potentialities (or the multiplicity of the psyche)? An example that might describe what I'm getting at is, in the myth of Orpheus, when Orpheus abandons all other gods to worship Apollo after being painfully separated from Eurydice forever. Another related example that I'm particularly interested in is when someone who's experiencing depression (or similar emotions) becomes suddenly pessimistic, or caught up in a particular way of thinking that doesn't give any consideration to the validity of alternate views. Any input you could provide on this phenomenon would be greatly appreciated, especially if you could narrow these ideas into concrete terms or tell me where I could find more information on these concepts. **(Bonus points for framing these concepts within a Freudian, Jungian or Archetypal perspective -- I'm trying to come up with a topic for my psychology of religion term paper; I hope I can take it in this direction and make it work...) Thank you! |

Is that it, then? Am I done? For tonight, at least. What a productive day. Current Music: Yuko Imai - Theme of a Moonlit Night |

Let's say your name is Paul and you're about to get your own editorial column. I say, call it "No A-Paul-ogies." That will be clever, pretty much ever time. Ahem. I'm feeling an uncharacteristic surge of energy, so that's worth celebrating with more words than I usually devote to this section of the world. What is it that has me in such a surge? Is it that I was commended by a professor on the presentation that had worried me for past weeks? Or that a lady in the class who was watching also complimented me? (One who I have no designs upon, I hasten to add -- it is worth going down this tangent though. Both compliments went well with the weight coming off of my chest that presenting brings. Better move this out of the parentheses.) I think that it was the giddy cheer that came from my interrogating which compliment mattered more that tipped me over into this mood. The presentation helped, the cigar-smoking window washer who distracted the students helped, but it was the digging into my mind and realizing how irrational I am that pushed things over the edge. What else? I'm finishing up a freelance project tonight, so that's another strong finish in the works. After that, there's a whole new slew of deadlines coming up: for one, where am I going to find a motorcycle? Also, transforming into a bear is hard work. Also, how am I going to plow through grey and brown fields, to bring hope to a dreary land? Double ahem. Do not presume to lecture me on the hardships cool dudes must bear. No one knows them better than I. For while I am not inclined to discuss my awesomeitude with people whom it is none of their business -- I am rad! Current Music: Queen - Who Wants to Live Forever |
