Forever Young...
It's a good day. Well, not really, but I'm still smiling. I've got this great song going on repeat, and it makes me happy and dancy. Gotta love that.
Turned in my Social Justice paper on time, meeting all the requirements. I had to skip history this morning to finish it, but oh well. Then, in Social Justice class, we talked about sexual orientation, so I got my turn in the spotlight. I'm the only gay person in our Friday group, and someone brought up "Conversion" centers. So, I got to get out my soap box and educate some people. What's really cool is that I actually feel like I got through and maybe changed some ideas and opinions today. I was looking forward to this quarter so much because my of Queer Theory class and my LGBTQ Intro class, thinking that these are the things we would be discussing. So, I was dissapointed when I was unable to talk about these things, which are important to me. But I feel like today I was able to actually do some good. Which makes it worth it for me.
Now I have two and a half hours to finish my Intro paper and get to the Alderman's office to get parking permits. Then I need to do a quick load of laundry for work clothes, maybe take a nap or grab a bite to eat, and get to work. Working 7:30 - 3 tonight, hopefully I'll make some decent dough. Rent is due next week, and I'm positive I'm going to be short. Unless it's a REALLY good night tonight. Notice my lack of caring at this point. Anyway, then tomorrow I work from 3pm-3am with the catering company. I haven't catered in over a month - I hope I remember how. Then Sunday is all mine. Which means the usual - laundry, cleaning, and homework. *sigh* And then it'll be Monday. Weekends just aren't long enough. 48 hours isn't nearly enough time to finish all the stuff I need to before the next week rolls around. But I'm not going to think about that, because then I'll be sad. And right now, I'm forever young.
