But my lips hurt real bad!

So I feel the need to plug my chapstick...hehe I've never been much of a chapstick person... never really cared for that greasy feeling on my lips. Or how sticky my lips would be when I had it on, often just wiping it off shortly after putting it on. There's also that funky taste that some chapsticks have.. So needless to say more often than not I go without anything on my lips thus risking chaped, peeling, bleeding, hard lips... Yuck who wants to kiss that... (not that anyone does anyways...lol) I've found a few diff chapsticks I like over time, but none as much as this new chapstick...

It's Nivea "A kiss of Moisture" I love it!! It has no taste to it, if you lick your lips all you feel/taste are your soft lips. Its not greesy or sticky its just smooth... It works immediately and isn't thick. It just makes my lips feel so nice!! So I deffently recommend this to anyone who has issues with chapstick but can no longer stand having dry/chapped lips... Well I'll recommend it to anyone who like chapstick too...hehe

And the Nominees are....

Robert Downey Jr in.... Tropic Thunder?... Really?...Seriously?....

Don't get me wrong, I'm a Downey fan, and I thought Tropic Thunder was hilarious (which surprised me I didn't expect to like it)... And his role was definitely my favorite in the movie, but did it really deserve an Oscar nomination?
It definitely surprised me when I was looking up the nominations earlier and saw that...

I mean his character was great! And he definitely had some great lines... But I just didn't, and still really don't see it, as Oscar material... So is it his protrail of "...the dude playin' the dude, disguised as another dude!"? Or is it the character itself with lines like...

"Being an actor's no different than being a rugby player or a construction worker, save for the fact that my tools are the mechanisms that trigger human emotion?


"I don't read the script. The script reads me"


"Check it out. Dustin Hoffman, 'Rain Man,' look retarded, act retarded, not retarded. Counted toothpicks, cheated cards. Autistic, sho'. Not retarded. You know Tom Hanks, 'Forrest Gump.' Slow, yes. Retarded, maybe. Braces on his legs. But he charmed the pants off Nixon and won a ping-pong competition. That ain't retarded. Peter Sellers, "Being There." Infantile, yes. Retarded, no. You went full retard, man. Never go full retard. You don't buy that? Ask Sean Penn, 2001, "I Am Sam." Remember? Went full retard, went home empty handed... "

This film makes fun of just about any kind of actor there is out there, that's what makes it so great...And RDJ's character hits the over the top, trained method actor... But again, really a nomination?

Sleeping Beauty?...

To say I have a sleep problem is an understatement... I don't know a word for something worse than that, but what ever it is that's how you would describe my sleep...

<<< This is what I did all day, and by all day I mean for 14hrs. Sound like fun?...Yea...No, I had two classes today and didn't even wake up for those. Though I did happen to shut my alarm off at some point in time. I can't understand how it is that I can be awake for 25-35hrs at a time (without artificial help), sleep for maybe 3hrs, do all that all over again, sometimes multiple times, and then at some point in time I fall asleep and sleep for over 10hrs. I've tried everything but meds and my Dr and I are really hesitant to put me on them since when I do sleep I can sleep for too long on my own anyway.

My sleep habits piss everyone off. They think I do it on purpose. Now who the hell would want to sleep for more than 8hrs when they aren't sick? I just either can't fall asleep, as if my mind won't shut itself off, or don't wake up once I do, as if my deep sleep is a freakin' dark abyss which never ends. People talk to me and I talk back, and never recall getting up in anyway let alone a conversation. Heck, I've had text message conversations in my sleep, now what does that say about the way my brain works... Seems kinda fucked up to me... And then I can lay in bed for hrs and not fall asleep when I'm going through my bouts of insomnia. That is what sucks... Knowing I have to get up in 2hrs and finally falling asleep when I've been up for 20 some hrs. I've tried exercising to wear myself out, that doesn't help, tried reading, knitting/crocheting...I've tried music, no music, warm room, cold room... I get nothing to put me to sleep, but once I am asleep I'm out...I just don't get it. Anyone else have this issue and know how maybe to help me? I really wish I had normal sleep habits, trust me I got shit I want to get done, sleeping all day is not one of them....

The Many Faces of Me...

This is my lame attempt at a real blog. Not quite sure where I plan to go with it from here, but everyone else seems to be doing it so why not conform with the masses...



Right now at this moment I don't feel like being anywhere. So I'm sitting in the IUSB library contemplating the meaning of life... Ok, no, not really, just pissin' 'round on the internet. And obviously discovering that I can use the cam on the Macs and all the fun things you can do with PhotoBooth. Which by the way if you ever feel the need to spend an unappropriate amount of money on me... I want a Mac... hehe, whatever it is their version of a laptop is, yea I'll be sure not to hold my breath on that one..haha.



I continue to get highly distracted sitting here... First it was my decision to start this blog, then I wanted to add a photo to my post so I started playing with PhotoBooth, next I decided to actually write the post, and now.... now my brain has just wiped itself clear of any and all intelligent thoughts... Guess I'll have to wait till tomorrow to write something profound for you to read...
