Frank and I have been walking to school in the morning. It’s nice, but yesterday we walked from his house and it was super hot. I haven’t been sunburned in a long time, but after the 40 minute walk to class and the 40 minute walk back from class in a tank top, it happened. Yay for freaky tan lines. I thought it was going to hurt a lot today, but luckily it doesn’t. Now I’m just sitting here watching the Braves game with Frank even thought I don’t like baseball…

So I saw an article about Cherlize Theron saying that she was “slamming” other actors, when she said

“It comes across as this really sad need for approval. I’ve heard people make comments like, ‘You don’t really want to be in the tabloids but you need to be for your career.’ They believe it’s actually important. It’s not. It’s ugly.”

I don’t think that is “slamming” other famous people. It’s true! Wanting to be in the tabloids seems to me, like a quest for attention too, and personally I don’t think that bad attention is worth it. I guess I’m not someone who likes to be the center of attention anyway. I’d much rather be the best friend of the person in the limelight, but maybe that’s just me.

The Suns finally have a new coach. I’m a little scared. I know we need to work on defense, but I’m afraid other things will slip. My boyfriend and his roommate were saying we need to get rid of Diaw or Barbosa, but at least they stepped up in the finals against the Spurs. Our “top three” didn’t. Not that I want Nash, Stat, or Shaq to leave. Well, actually Shaq didn’t do what he was supposed to, so whatever. I guess my point is that for this all to work, with a new coach, everyone needs to freaking step up.

So, I was talking to a friend of mine yesterday and he was saying that he has applied to 8 or 9 places down here and no one has even called him back. After we talked about that I started getting scared that I’m never going to get a job down here, but I really need one. So I emailed my nice boss at the library to ask if theres a chance that I could work there this summer even though I said a month ago that I wasn’t going to. So I at least have a job until the end of June, but I need to go see him to figure out when I’m going to work. I really like not working though haha. It’s nice going to school and then coming home and just doing nothing, or cleaning. I’d make a good housewife haha.

After reading the Iliad today I really want to go to the library and get other books. I keep forgetting to take my library card with me to school, though and Frank doesn’t want to walk back over there today I want to read, but I want to finish reading Wicked!

So I also read today on AOL (I hate AOL, but it has a good news page) that the US life expectancy is behind 30 some other countries. Japan has the number 1 life expectancy with 83 years old. I’ve decided I’m blaming the fast food world, along with the lethargic life style. I know that’s my problem haha. Being overweight just causes SO many other health problems! From things like diabetes, and heart failure, to something I had to deal with this year. When I gained weight at the beginning of this year I noticed my feet were hurting, but not in a normal way – the top of my feet were hurting and I was literally limping. That’s when I had to stop wearing flip flops 24/7 and start wearing tennis shoes again.

So anyway, if you couldn’t tell I don’t have much in my own life to talk about today haha. I haven’t fixed my car yet. Frank is going to look underneath my car and see if something with the gear shift is loose, but we have to wait until I can call my dad and he can explain what frank should look for. Anyway, I finally need to go unpack my bags and clean my room, so I’m going to go do that.

καληνύχτα – aka Goodnite!
