It's Diciembre Hombre!
by For all you SNOW HOTTIES out there: some lyrical December bliss from DCFC
i put on my overcoat and walked into winter - my teeth chattered rhythms
and they were grouped in twos or threes, like a morse code message was sent from me to me
cars on slippery slopes, they're stuck
people pushing through their mittens as i was beginning
to feel it soaking through my shoes, getting colder with every step i took
to your apartment, dear
and i was a kaleidoscope
the snow on my lenses distorting the image
of what was only one of you
and i didn't know which one to address as all your lips moved
this is when i forget breathe
all the things i scripted, they sound unfounded
and the look that you're giving me
it tells me exactly what you are thinking: "this ain't working anymore."
they got their mothers worked into a panic
sledding down hills into oncoming traffic
the parents layered clothes until the children couldn't move
then kept them outside til their noises were blue
and I got left there, too
*COUGH* I have this love/hate thing with December. My birthday is the 21st, the first day of winter, so that's cool. But it also marks 20 years of cold weather-induced asthma. Last night, I was coughing my self to sleep, only I couldn't! Sooo around 1am I had to do a nebulizer treatment. ugh. not fun.
At any rate, 2 1/2 FINALS DOWN and 1 1/2 TO GO! Why do my classmates look at me like I'm a weirdo when I say "I can't wait until next semester!!" That's when we really get into interpreting. Some people have decided to quit (after almost 2 YEARS!)...in this program ONLY THE STRONG WILL SURVIVE! ;)
Most people see me as being a really positive person. Can a person be TOO positive?
*intermission for Name That Movie Quote*
"I know you can be overwelmed and under..welmed but can you ever just be welmed?"
"I think you can in Europe."
Ok, where was I? Oh right, so I think sometimes I can be overly positive. But that emphasizes the disappointment, no?
One of my buddies made me feel extra good about myself yesterday..sometimes asking for affirmation leads to...confidence revival and *smiles* ones that resurface throughout the day...those are the best!
IAN!!! Heyyy so I think it would be cool to be able to use those color html tag thingies in our journal pages. I know, I know, how can I ask for the implementation of a new feature at such a time when our features are at risk of extinction?..but I'm just sayin.
*disclaimer--I'm not terribly positive at the moment, but I usually am!*

That movie would be 10 Things I Hate About You.
You win a.. I don't know.. *thumbs up* ;)
I LOVE THIS SONG i also love ben gibbard and all of his bands...
the only thing i like about december is our 2 week shutdown here at work.
i hate nebulizers treatments. i end up doing them a lot since during season changes i have major changes. my hands start to shake after i've finished one. i can't wait to not have asthma anymore.
ahhh.. the new system!! This brother told me there may be reason to believe my asthma will be cured right away since people will get mad at me for not helping out with building houses. I'll need my lungs to be productive! Also, to sing.
i know, i can't wait. i get so embrassed sometimes cuz they can come on really easy from really simple exercises. like sometimes i can run up a large flight of stairs but other times a medium flight kills me and then i can't breathe. or jump onmy tramplonine fine but then all of a sudden not be able to.
that's why i stopped doing them. and now i can't breathe. not really a solution.
last night my mom was trying to get me to do it before bed cuz of the other night but I won't do it unless I REALLY need to..so I didn't and I actually got thru the night.
