I've only been up for 9.5 hrs

I try to average at least 7 hrs of sleep a nite, so since i went to bed at 4am this morning, i set my alarm for 11am. it goes off at 11am, i go back to bed thinking i'll sleep maybe another half hour. i finally get up, check my cell phone, and it's frakkin 2:30 in the afternoon. that's 10 hrs of sleep. whether you see it as good or bad, i see it as i needa play catch up to all the shiznit i'm supposed to do today. my plan was to get up, eat, drop by roommate's netflix in the mail, finish my family genogram and whatever other hw i have to do and then just take it from there. well, i got the first two items done w/no problem. the third item, dropping off the netflix, became a hassle. 

I walked to the campus bookstore because the post office is inside thinking it closes at 4pm on saturdays. wrrrong. closed at 3--son of a...hopped in the car to drive around campus and, if need be, around town to find a mailbox. i head towards the nearest bank b/c i know there's gotta be a mailbox and i was right. but that was like a 7 minute drive. what's w/the lack of mailboxes, usps? as i waited for the green light arrow to illuminate, i watched a 30-40 yr. old woman on the opposite street corner energetically shake pom poms with one of those enormous arrow signs for a sale at some furniture store down the block hanging around her neck. and that's where my message for tonite comes in: Get an education!

I know some people are not meant for school or school is not meant for them, but there are programs out there that can give you a career. times are tough right now and the only way to stay afloat is to either have a job or be in school to help you get a job. listen to that black dude on the everest college commercials and give em a call. or western career college, itt tech, seqouia...give em a call if you are absolutely doing nothing. we all have something to contribute to society.

I'm a bit irked by the fact that I have to miss The Company's workshop tomorrow because i have a weekend child abuse class, but hey, it's for my career. what are you doing to contribute to society?

Have a good sunday.
