Bleh... school... again... Why can't it just go away?

Friday, please come back... My brain isn't ready for Monday. A repeat of the weekend would be marvelous.

Weekend? Oh yes, it was great, the food was great... everything. What did I do that was so special? I got to make a 5 and a half hour drive to go home so I could spend about 2 days with my boyfriend. He cooked dinner Friday night, and I got to make him dinner Saturday. We both had shrimp on our minds, since that was the main ingredient in both of our meals.

They were both filling and good. We watched movies and just spent time with each other.

It was sad for me to leave him on his birthday, but when you have classes to get to on Monday morning, one must do what they need to. And abandoning him before Valentine's day... sadness... :(

I'll make up for it with my friends though. I'm sure I can sucker some of them into watching random chick flicks with me. lol.

So my brain is slowly dying... I'm tired, running on what ever sleep I collected over the weekend. I think it's getting down to empty now. I'll have to rant some tomorrow about some things from last week that I didn't get to. But anyway... Sleep! Bed! It calls to me! Must... not... refuse.... ZZzzzz... Just playing.... but seriously. I'm done for tonight. Write about random stuff later.

I hate Monday classes... I wish they would all just die...

Picture Amendment

Ok, so you see the blue circle now? It's actually the remnants of a fort built a week ago. Me and my adorable roommate went out with a small tub and a thing of hot water and made a two level brick fort... It had later been damaged by heartless folk and here it is. The sun, how ever brief, took its own toll on the snow structure. Now it sits, buried and forgotten in the new layers of snow. 'Good night, sweet fort; And flights of angels sing thee to thy rest.'

More snow? No way...

It can't possibly be snowing again, can it?

I could be wrong, but that looks like it's snowed a bunch already... AND IT'S STILL COMING DOWN! (Yes... caps for emphasis)

So yes, you see that little red circle over the vehicles? Well, that's my car.... AND I DROVE IT YESTERDAY! Just goes to show how much it's snowed.... MY CAR IS BURIED!

(calming down)

And the other red circle with arrows? Oh yes, thanks for asking, that's the snow on the lens of my camera. Makes a nice cloud, don't you think?

So... this is part 3 in the blizzard that ran across the country... There is about 4 inches of the rest of it melted down under this new layer of snow. Yay... more ice. I want the 50 degree weather they are promising... I looked at the radar two days ago and wondered, 'Where the heck is this thing supposed to be coming from?'

Some said Canada, I had assumed Oklahoma since that's who sent us the rest of the snow... with their love. But nope, checked the radar yesterday morning and KABAM! There it was, the massive blue blob that is hovering over us right now. It was actually hanging around yesterday too, but decided to hold it's upchucking for today, so that we could have all day to enjoy walking in it to our classes. I did have one canceled, so that makes me kind of happy, but I feel sorry for anyone out in this. I still have work, so that's a bummer, but it will be over soon, and then, I can bake my friendship bread!

Amish Friendship Bread

From: Amanda (my seestor)

So I got a wonderful bag of bread starter, thinking, 'this will be cool. Fresh baked bread dessert stuff every week or so.'

Now we're on bake number 4... I'm almost sick of the stuff. I'm going to go home and people are going to see that it made me fat. lol

My roommate loves it, but doesn't want it in the room. Plus, in its unbacked stage, it's kinda creepy when you wake up and find it on the floor. I think the yeast is trying to get me while I'm sleeping. Well, THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE TO TRY HARDER! MWAHAHAHAHA!

Sorry....

Not too much sleep and no breakfast really gets to me. The bread is good for breakfast too. I'll be baking it this afternoon and hope I have enough stuff to do it. I might suffer through one more time before either trying to find it a home or just throwing it away. I'm sure I can find another starter if I needed... or just that 'secret' recipe they talk about to make it...

Anyway, I should try and find something productive to do... like maybe go into work early so I can have an early lunch... that sounds like a good idea... Later!

What's in the name?

Want to know more about the title?

Yes, there is ice here where I'm located, but there won't always be... You ask 'Then why name your blog after something that isn't around all the time?'

Well, I'll tell you. Ice is around all the time, it may not be just the cooler thing-a-ma-jig in your drink. There are certain obstacles that act like ice. You can trip up on your words in a conversation or run into some slick topics. I don't know. To me, there's ice everywhere... My brain doesn't work right all the time. :D

So anyway, my day was long... and I was tired... but no one wants to hear about that right? Right...

But I'll tell you anyway. So I went to bed late... working on this blog, of course. Got up early for work... never really studied for the test I had, but didn't feel like I did too bad. Wanted a nap close to lunch but pulled through. Still feel that way though... oh well. And in my last class, my teacher decided to answer some stupid boys' questions about her thesis paper. She sat there and talked with just them for about 20 minutes... talk about distracted. Didn't get much out of that class.... Then I went to work for the rest of the afternoon. Now I am here, writing to you.

So anyway... more snow on the way, huzzah. I want to be able to make it home this weekend. Valentine's day, yes... boyfriend's birthday, yes.... Anyway....yes. I'm done.

Beginnings

Ok... so the name of this came seemingly out of nowhere...

Walking back to my dorm, and get this... there was ice on the sidewalk, so I mention to my roommate who was high on sugar at the time that there were patches of ice. Then the topic of me needing to start up a blog came along and it all fell into place.

So I have several friends that have started writing their own blogs about random stuff... so I thought I would join them. This sounded like a fun way to get frustrations out or something to do instead of studying for a test that's tomorrow...

Anyway, this is my first random post, hopefully the first of many to come. As i get used to the format, there may even be some awesome pictures involved. We'll see how it goes.

Anywho... This is Nat, signing off..... for now.
