No time for old habits.

The silence. It's deafening.

I need to get used to this. :(

Update, just to keep sane.

I broke down and drank a Redbull, today. Either I'm depressed about something, or my body simply refuses to allow me to get motivated about anything. I figure getting 'high' on Caffeine will finally kick me into gear. Seems to have done the trick so far..

I started an 'Impromptu Yellow Plum Venture' last night in Lorene's kitchen. It happened after a shift at work where Dave handed over an entire case of random yellow plums the new owner left for him. He didn't want to do anything with them. Not so bad, I consider. Should make an interesting brew.

So.. this summer I've created, thus far: Fruit Medley v1.0 (Huckleberry, Salmon Berry, Strawberry, Blueberry, and Cherry), Fruit Medley v2.0 (Cherry, White Nectarine, Blackberry, Raspberry), 2 different batches of Blueberry, a Bing Cherry Port, Blackberry (of which I will be doing another batch, pending picking of, today), and this 'Plum Venture'. My mind whirls at the amount of bottles I'll be labeling and packing away in boxes. I think I might be in over my head, here.

School starts in a week. I have all my books. (650$ of them. Fuckers.), and they're heavy. Not just physically, but just.. loaded with all sorts of useful information I can't fathom wrapping my head around. I guess I'm going to have to.

Jason told me that I have the worst possible teacher for Microeconomics. He even offered his sympathies. This didn't do much to ease my nerves about the whole ordeal.. but I suppose I'm prepared in the way that I know she's going to be a giant pain in my ass.. so I can treat the class accordingly. Maybe with the concept that I must teach myself everything in this class firmly in mind.. I'll be prepared enough to pass at a reasonable grade. I'll find out soon enough.. *chuckles*

My ex-boyfriend, Lachlan, contacted me on LJ and we struck up a conversation, recently. After about.. 10 years of stony silence. This caused me to go and find another one of my dearest friends from my wacky childhood. He's going through a giant pile of shit in his life, apparently, and it makes me feel pretty bad for him. I'm also upset at myself for having lost contact with Eric, cause from what I can remember, we used to be pretty tight. It really chokes me up, though, that I didn't get to take this trip out to MN during the summer. It would have been really.. cool to take him out for a few beers so we could fuck around and make sick jokes about Masturbation all day. Just like the old days.

Ah, Nostalgia.
