Zigzags

Alright, so it's now just a week left until Brock comes home from the field - thank goodness. This house is starting to grate on my nerves, it's entirely too empty and quiet. When he isn't here, I generally don't turn the tv on. . . . thus the quiet.

Heard from him yesterday morning, and apparently due to a mix up in papers (makes me want to smack the guy that fucked them up) we won't be able to go to Fort Leavenworth. Instead, we'll be going to Fort Leonard Wood in the middle of pretty much nowhere.

I'm going to have to figure out something in order to get my bachelor's, because there are no colleges there offering an accounting degree, much less a bachelor's in accounting. Oh joy.



Saw a picture that showed the "Japanese way of learning multiplication." A trick, you could say. As long as you can count and draw lines, you can do it. Makes me wish they had shown us that back when I was still learning that stuff, not that I ever had a problem learning it but still lol.


Yes, I tried it. Yes, it works. Yes, it's frickin' awesome. Lol.

Finally went and bought the last book in my absolute FAVORITE book series (in terms of reading it, I still love Harry Potter - but hey, the books are written in a style for a younger generation). This series I'm talking about is called 'The Wheel of Time' by Robert Jordan. The last book came out back in November I think, and it is technically number 14. I still say the 'Prologue' that was published long before the final book and long after the first counts as a number 15.

It is a phenomenal book series. Very long, each book ranges from 800 to 1,000 pages long, and there are a lot of characters - but it is spectacularly written. (Can you tell that I like the series? Lol.)

One of my tattoos is actually a sentence I came up with using a language from the series . . . . yeah, I know, nerdy. But, I love the books that much.

Well, I'm tired, and other than going to school today and finding out that I had forgotten that class was cancelled for today (we've known for a few weeks), my day has been pretty boring.

It was a cold day with a drizzling sort of snow, but it's better than the blizzard conditions we've had this last month.

I'm not complaining - I'm from cold weather's birthplace . . . well, not really, but I am from a cold place, so I'm used to it lol.

*Yawns* Guess I'm tired, but I won't be going to sleep for a while.

Wish I could say I have a song for the day, but I haven't listened to music today so, sorry dear readers.

Well, okay, there is one that popped into my head a few times today.

Song of the day is . . . *drumroll*

Uncharted by Sara Bareilles

(And a song that occurred to me when I wrote this one down lol.)
Unwritten by Natasha Bedingfield . . . . nah, ignore this song. Not in the mood for it today. I guess I'm more in the mood for the idea of taking charge of your own life, not letting anyone else write it for you, etc. Lol. Idk.

***Side note: Does anyone care or listen to the songs? And who out there is reading this blog to begin with? Lol. Just curious.

Ta for now.
