So, this morning, my mom went to go baby-sit my nieces for my sister, and came home with them. Now, I don't usually mind it when my nieces come to visit, even if it is ALL DAY, but today, I was in a bad mood. No, that doesn't even begin to describe it. I was in one of those absolutely awful, terrible, horrible, dreadful, deplorable moods. And the fact that I'm stressing over my research paper for English and the fact that I could have gotten my license yesterday except that we couldn't find my birth certificate (which, by the way, I found today) and that I really, really, REALLY want to get out of my car pool but now I can't even if I had a license because my sister-in-law is borrowing my car for the next two weeks or so wasn't helping AT ALL. And other things, too, but they were smaller. So, today wasn't really the best day for me to have anyone around me, much less my nieces, and now that they have finally arrived, my brother and his family, complete with yet another niece and my nephew and their super-annoying-follows-me-practically-everywhere dog. AND my sister and her youngest daughter are coming for dinner, so that's pretty much my whole family, minus my other brother and his wife, and aunts/uncles/etc...
So, about my research paper, I went to the library today (with my mom and nieces) and got 8 books, which by the way, contain only part of the information that I need for my paper. I am so mentally tired right now from all the research that I've done today, trying to decipher what all these people who clearly don't want anyone to understand what they're writing because they insist on using all these words that are super long and that I've never even heard of before in their writings. I'm a pretty smart person, I can usually understand that kind of stuff, even if I have to re-read it a couple times. But not some of these. Five times, at least, and I am no farther in understanding what the heck they are going on about. Anyway, so I got a lot of stuff for my paper, but I still need a periodical source, and an internet source. I certainly have my book source covered.
Ok, scratch the whole being just mentally tired thing. I am also physically exhausted. And in no mood to deal with people at the moment. And I'm going to have to, all night tonight. I think I'll just hide in my room till everyone either goes home or goes to bed. That sounds like a good plan to me. Then I won't snap at anyone and get people mad at me.
On a happier note, I absolutely love it when my brother sits down and plays the piano. He is soooooo amazing at it, and I love just sitting there and listening to him. I now have one more qualification for my future husband that I would absolutely love him to have; being able to play the piano really well and with lots of feeling and to play it often. And, as the song says, "I want a man to stand beside me, not in front of or behind me" That's a good song, I was listening to it not that long ago. And, even though Sadies isn't for about two months, I'm already trying to come up with a group to go with and a day date for us to do. I'm really excited for it. The only bad thing about it is that Prom comes after it, and I have a bad feeling about Prom this year. That I will A. either not be asked at all, or B. be asked by someone who I don't want to go with because they're a complete creep or something like that. I don't know what I would do in the second case, it would be mean to say no, but at the same time, I don't want to go to a dance with someone that I am not comfortable around and who I wouldn't be able to be a very good date to because of my un-comfortableness. I would probably be trying to ignore them the whole night, or something like that. I don't like creepy guys, I don't really know of anyone who does like them, really.
Oh! And today, there were three marathons of amazing shows that I love on tv today. Buffy, White Collar, and America's Next Top Model. But, unfortunately, I only got to see a couple minutes of any of it before my mom brought my nieces home and we went to the library. :( Sad day. Well, I think that that's enough ranting for one post. Hugs, not drugs, my friends.
