Ok it's official, I'm pretty much an idiot. I couldn't figure out why I was so tired all the time for the past couple three days. I was feeling really lethargic and just out of it. I realized that after having a couple of good meals yesterday and having a big meal today that it was because I was under nourished. I realized that I had been scrimping money for food as it came down to the wire before payday. It seemed like I was spending more money on food than I wanted to. No more of that from now on. I'll find other places to conserve money. I set up the free savings account that comes with having my money at Wachovia. So I'll save some money each pay period and know exactly how much I have to spend on what. Hopefully I can build up a good bit of money in savings and eventually move into an apartment. I should have done this a long time ago, but I loose track of time really easily. Which in itself is something to work on. I did buy a couple of cool things today. Well I bought them last night, but it was after midnight so it was technically today. I got a Pirats Of The Caribbean poster with Jack Sparrow on it. It's the scene where he's getting ready to have a sword fight with Will Turner in the blacksmith shop. It's a cool poster, I kinda want to put it up here in the office since I'm here more than at home. But Nancy probably won't like that. Oh well, I'll put it over my bed so I can go to sleep beside it. I also ordered the Peter Pan DVD online. It only cost about $12 which is cool. I can't wait to get it and see all the special features. I especially want to see the alternate ending, the ending in the regular version is kinda sappy. The whole movie is still pretty close to the book. We watched it the other day at Jen and Julie's house. I really like the movie but I hate to hear Andrea rant about it. She goes from zero to extremely patronizing in .3 miliseconds. In general she acts like an insecure extremly emotional teenager. But she loves to lecture people on things and act like everything she says is a revelation that should be lauded as exciting news. Needless to say this annoys the heck out of me. But it's just something that I have to deal with for myself. I only have to deal with her when she tries to take over teaching at fighter practice. Anyway sorry for that little tangent. But speaking of SCA things, there has been a huge flap going down on the SCA listserv this week about the Blacksburg meetings. Basically the Roanoke people are angry because the meetings will be on the same day as their fighter practice. I'm glad the meetings are starting back up here in the 'burg. It will increase interest among the students and create a social enviroment in addition to fighter practice. The Roanoke people can whine all they want to, they really can't do anything about it. Our Barony is huge and it's not going to get any smaller unless Blacksburg creates a College, or Lynchburg turns into a Canton. Both things are in the works, in fact Andrea is really involved in the college idea. She invests herself emotionally in everything so sca was no exception. And she started to get 'disenchanted' with the SCA in general. Not a big deal to me, she invested emotionally in something and it started to not satisfy her. Big deal, it happens. But the thing is she actually told this to a new person who was considering joining. That really pissed me off to no end. So she put all her effort into the creation of a College. I like the idea of the College because it would give Blacksburg the autonomy it needs. That way we can say bugger off when Roanoke or Lynchburg tries for a power grab. We can just let them play their little games while we have fun. But anyway as soon as I get off here I'm going to the meeting, if I can find it. This weekend is Turning Leaves, I'm doing all I can to get fencing people to come. However there is a hurricane coming through so it could be raining and miserable. Fortunatly there will be shelter to fight under and keep the gear clean. It should be a good time. We might also end up over at Heidi's afterwards. Well that was my SCA rant. Right now I'm hungry so I'm going to go search for food. Sorry for the rambling.
