Me and my problems
...which are really little, but big in the tiny magnified world of Mackinac Island.
1. It's raining today and I wore flipflop sandals.
2. It's raining today and my umbrella has weird metal thingies sticking out of it.
3. It's raining today and I miss my Tom very much.
4. It's raining today.
Hopefully, my mood will be boosted by one of several things:
1. Getting a package in the mail.
2. Getting a letter in the mail.
3. Winning the lottery (not going to happen).
4. Indulging in some retail therapy...i.e., buying another pair of shoes. Because I'm wearing flipflops and it's raining and I need shoes.
Otherwise everything is peachy keen. I have decided that I am going to be sulky today. But only a little. This much --> .
There are also menacing little elementary schoolers tooling around on bikes. DANGEROUS. That's all I have to say.

A bracelet, a bicycle, and a Blue Monday
You know, I love having people visit me. The anticipation, the waiting, the planning - it's so much fun. And then when they actually arrive - good NIGHT! I can't get enough. Snuggling with my boyfriend, who I see far too little of, and hugging my family and my doggies, who are also much too seldom seen, makes me happier than pretty much anything else in the world.
Except.
Except that when they leave, everythign seems twice as sucky as it did before they came.
Hence, a Blue Monday. Loneliness is amplified when you've got something fabulous and wonderful compared to. I think this is why Hell must be so awful. If you went to Hell and that was all you knew you would lament your life but it would never be the actual psychological torment you undergo knowing and remembering all the wonderful things that came before.
Ok, enough of this depressed crap. Isolation is turning me into a regular Freud. Or Jung. Or something.
For my birthday, my handsome and wonderful boyfriend brought me a very pretty pink bracelet. It is sparkly and sterling silver and everything a girl could want. I especially like the messenger. :)
Also, my parents brought my bike, and having a bike is great! I like whizzing down the street. Also, I registered it at the police station and now it has a shiny new sticker on it that says to potential bike stealers "Hey! Back off!"
Also, today is a holiday and everyone in America is not working except for me. Ok, maybe that is a teensy exaggeration, but not by much. Seriously.
I miss Chinese food. Also I miss Pizza Hut and Meijer. And everyone that's not here with me, which is everyone.

Oh, ya.
Since I've been here in Mackinac, I've heard more yooper accents than I would if I watched Fargo nine times. I think it's really - that lilt in the voice at the end, that turns any statement into a pseudo-question, and of course, that "oh, ya?" That gets me every time.
I've also discovered a slight addiction to buying postcards. I think I've spend close to 5 dollars on postcards. Which is a lot, considering that each of them are like 20 - 25 cents, and that's not even including postage.
I am super de dooper excited for my birthday, which is tomorrow. Hooray! I'm turning the big 2-1! I will finally be completely and utterly legal to purchase anything in any store! Hahahaha I am wicked awesome and no one can touch me. I am particularly looking forward to buying wine for cooking, rum for baking, and champagne to continue that alliterative Tom-and-Bernie brainchild, champagne and Chinese food. Mmmmmmm Chinese food, something that I haven't eaten in over a month. It's really sad how much I miss things like that.
Yesterday I ate so many Sour Patch Kids my tongue shriveled up. I don't recommend it. I also ate Mentos - the freshmaker! Tom says I am a marketer's dream because I can remember all the commercials. I think he is right, except I don't usually buy all the products, like Viagra and Goodyear and stuff like that. So am I a marketer's dream or just a teasing example of what they wish their actual demographic could be like?
Whatever. These musings are the end product of me having nothing to do in the office on a Thursday when Leslie, the other intern and my partner in crime, is over on St. Ignace and I can't reach any of my contacts for stories. And also my birthday is tomorow, so I am a little bit distracted. Perhaps this is a tiny bit understandable?

Things that are cool, and the best grilled cheese sandwich ever
Things that are cool:
-Faxes (we just got a new fax machine in the office and it's awesome)
-Good weather (not today, interestingly enough)
-listening to my iPod and writing blogposts during slow periods at the office (hey, I can't help it if the new owner of the Irish Pub isn't in today)
-Sour Patch Kids (they make me pucker but I love them.)
And...the best grilled cheese sandwich ever. Sorry, I ate it before I could take a picture, but if you're interested, you can get it at the Astor Street Cafe on Mackinac Island for $4.77, with chips and a pickle. I have eaten two of them in the last four days. Mmmmmmm. I think they must use extra fatty butter or something because it just tastes so good.
Booo I have to work and I have a deadline on Wednesday. But tonight the series finale of Alias is on, and even though I don't really watch that show and I never really udnerstand what's going on, it can't hurt to gain a little more pop-culture knowledge while simultaneously burning brain cells and drinking hot cocoa.
Question: hot cocoa or hot chocolate? What's the difference? Is one snottier than the other? Am I becoming the type of person who says "double entend" instead of "double entendrUH"?
Also, since I am slowly disintegrating due to my utter isolation from general civilization, I've decided that I should take advantage of my empty hours and get in shape. So let's see how long this plan lasts. Although with all the walking I have been losing weight, and my calves are getting suspiciously firmer. So much for sloth.
This excessively long post is a symptom of what happens when you put Bernie into an office for nine hours on a Monday with nothing even remotely close to delivery within a ten mile radius.

Money = no money
As evident from the title, this is a philosophical post.
I think that money = no money.
Actually, this only comes from the fact that whenever I have money, I get this simultaneous urge to spend it. Usually on shoes. Sometimes on t-shirts and excessive internet shopping. Hey, when you live on an Island, sometimes you just gotta do it. But in the short span of time I've been here I've spent about a zillion dollars at Wal-Mart, done a little online boutique browsing, and...AND...bought two pairs of shoes.
Will someone please explain to me how in the 2.5 weeks I've been here I've managed to buy two pairs of shoes? From the same store, no less?
They're cute though. Really cute. And also really necessary, considering the zillion billion miles I walk every day. Because they're flat, comfortable, appropriate for work shoes. And as long as I keep telling myself that, I will continue to prove that, indeed, money = no money.

Hi Arti!
Yes, by request, I am now naming my posts after friends who feel unloved after I dedicated a post to Ruth (see below.)
Well. Mackinac Island. What can I say?
This weekend I watched an insane amount of intense TV. Grey's Anatomy season finale (oh I cried so much) and Desperate Housewives. It's fun living with someone who appreciates the joy of titillating television as much as you do.
On Sunday, I went to Wal-Mart in Cheboygan. This was seriously one of the best things to happen to me in a long time. I realize that saying that makes me utterly sad and pathetic, but at least I'm honest. We ate lunch at Pizza Hut and OH MY GOD IT WAS SO GOOD IT BROUGHT TEARS TO MY EYES. I miss pizza. I miss delivery. I miss shopping in a store where peanut butter doesn't cost $5. Wal-mart was awesome. I bought socks, salad, celery, crackers, oreos, candy, yogurt, chocolate, lotion, shampoo, and I won't bore you with the rest. BUT I DID BUY MEAN GIRLS! The DVD! And it is awesome.
In other news, the weather here has been crazy, but today it is beautiful. Also I am dressed all in black because our washing machine doesn't work and I have few choices. According to a certain someone, I surely look like a black mamba.
Today walking to work was a hoot. There were disgusting fat worms all over the place.
I miss everyone! Send me emails! Send me blogposts! Do anything to help me stay occupied before I go nuts!
Love, Bernie.

HI RUTH!
Hi Ruth. How you doin'?
Hooray! I am finally done with finals. Boo...I am going home and straight to my internship, which, though I am very much looking forward to it, does start at a rather cramped pace. Such is life.
And now, a list.
Things I will miss about this year:
-my beautiful, wonderful, amazingly funny roommates.
-cooking for myself.
-being 15 minutes away from a Tom.
-having friends all around me
-Tom's HBO
Things I will NOT miss about this year:
-paying rent
-the internet at my apartment shorting out
-cooking for myself (when it involves only ramen noodles and water)
-walking everywhere in the freezing, raining, freezing freeze rain
-class. duh.
Things I have learned this year:
-Arti sleeps on her tummy
-Irene sleeps all the time (actually, I knew that)
-Ruth never sleeps (I knew that too)
-various stuff from my classes...probably retained about 30%. Not bad.
-how to make chicken noodle soup
I forget the rest.
Leaving tomorrow. Must pack. Many ducks. Gas pricey.
Ah...I don't want to go home! I don't want to be old! I don't want to have responsibility!

Stress and desire, or How I learned to live on 2 hours of sleep
Stress: Paper paper paper paper paper paper paper paper project exam exam exam paper paper exam.
Desire: Beautiful weather, awesome friends, handsome boyfriend (both of which are also studying)
Courtesy of N.
"Sleep is one of those paradoxical things. You want it the most when you can't have it."
Fully agreed on all sides.
Quick recap:
-Tater's visit = awesome
-Easter weekend = awesome-homesickness = aweshomesickness?
-Papers = making Bernie feel like a failure, part ten
On an embarassing note, today I somehow absentmindedly stumbled into a classroom full of people ten minutes before my own class was about to start. It seems that this has to happen every year, like a rite of passage or something. Some people do this as freshmen - Bernie does this on an annual (and sometimes biannual) basis.
Lovely.
Holding my breath for the plunge - if I survive, I'll be back later.

The bug is back
So, funny story...
Here I am, sitting at my computer, listening to various music, dancing and doing laundry in intermittent intervals, and - ooh! - i feel it!
The writing bug is back.
I have a lovely one line. I wonder if it will spawn a paragraph, a page, even - dare I say it? - a whole story.
"And so, Amy, the leaves are gone now, and so are the tourists. And so are you. I wonder when you'll be back?"
So do I, as-yet-non-existent Michael. So do I.
The bug is back, baby. The bug is back.

An update of the bloggingest kind
So, what's going on in my life right now?
School + Daily + Social Life = CRAZZZZZZY!
Like super crazy.
On a bright note, this summer I am living on Mackinac Island and writing for the Mackinac Town Crier, the weekly newspaper up there. it is going to be a hoot!! I am so excited and I really hope I get lots of visits from lots of people, all of whom I miss dearly and would love to see.
I have lots of papers and lots of tests and lots of assignments. This weekend is also Daily elections, that grueling all night ordeal that makes everyone wonder why they're sitting in a stuffy room with 60 other people, all of whom are also thinking the same thing. I am baking a cake.
Sofa is coming to visit this weekend, however! And Tater is too, and it is also MJ's birthday! Oh how exciting.

Sprint to the finish line
So...from now on, it's just a sprint to the finish line. Spring break is in my sights, I've got a few more hurdles to go over, and then it's home free!!! Well, not really, since I have two exams the week I come back, but still! At least I will experience a week of big, comfy beds, yummy yummy food, good company, and doggies!! I am planning on playing with my doggies a LOT. A LOT. I miss those guys.
Tom and I have also been hanging out a lot this week, which is wonderful...it makes me feel so happy hanging out with him. Gretch's visit was awesome, as well, but too short - and now she is in Argentina!! I hope you're doing well, Gretch.
Also, it's sunny outside. WEIRD but nice.
More later.

Update
HAHAHAHA BEST VALENTINE'S DAY EVER!!!
So for Valentine's day, I wasn't even expecting to see my Valentine. But then somehow there was a miraculous convergence of mystical forces (or just me trying to work things out) and we got to go to dinner together!!! And then...and then! I went home (well actually I made him drive me home) and there was a gigantic duck waiting for me with a box of chocolates!!! A GIGANTIC DUCK!!! He is so awesome. So awesome. His name is Scooter because he is so fat that he has to scoot around on his tummy. He eats a lot. Isn't that so cool? I love it.
Pictures to follow. Also, Gretch is here and visiting and I couldn't be happier!!
Blue days, begone!

Feeling down
I feel like this.
I am currently experiencing shades of rainy day blues (though it's not raining) with a chance for tears. I've just been feeling down today - it was supposed to be a good day. I just got done with a hellish week. I was looking forward to simply relaxing and turning into a vegetable with the help of my two good pals, sleep and television. But I've only managed to be quietly leak from the corners of my eyes and I have that terrible, tight feeling in my chest all the time - you know, the feeling you get when you're about to cry? Yeah. That feeling. It sucks.
Not even chocolate is making me feel better. I am not in a happy place right now. I want to be back in a happy place. This depressed stuff sucks ass.

AH so busy
OH my gosh it seems like this week all my teachers decided to dumpa load of crap ALL OVER ME. Actually it's not just me, it seems like everyone else has a zillion million billion things to do too. And it's HECK OF HECK OF HECKS cold outside, but I have these really fabulous, squishy warm blue boots that are SO SO NICE and snuggly. I can't wait for spring break, too, because it will be a welcome relaxation period. Also I miss my Tom. He is at school. I HAVE SO MUCH WORK TO DO so this post is ending right about now. Hehe, the funk soul rubber right about now (is that how it goes?)

Back to the blog
It's been a little while, but I've been busy. Really busy. Lots of things have been going on and I can tell that everyone around me feels it - Arti, Ruth, and Irene already have begun their cycle of going to the library late at night, and we talk about tests and homework as if it isn't only the second week of the semester. I've been so busy lately that I've sort of let a few things slide - time I usually keep for myself at night before I go to bed has disappeared, because I'm so tired I fall asleep as soon as I hit the sheets. The candles are keeping me sane, I'm telling you. They're nice and flickery and perfect for making the study atmosphere a little more serene and less hectic. I miss all my divas, too, and the fam. We went to state last weekend to visit MJ and that was a really good time; I got to hang out with some of my favorite people. Plus the long weekend was really nice because I got to spend some extra time with my Tom. I'm duckless, though- how sad.
Stay cool.
Stay cool.

Toweled up
Right now, I feel nice and warm and toasty, all wrapped up in PJs and a towel for my wet hair. I miss my Tom. Christmas was wonderful this year, as always, and even more special because we had some seldom-seen Aussie relatives visiting us. I got Cinderella shoes for Christmas from Nganny-the-bungy! They are so awesome. I miss her - but she is a lucky stiff because Rutgers doesn't go back to school until the 17th! Booooooooo.
Lots of books to read - my classes for this semester seem like they'll be harder than ever. This means a lot of work. I also picked up another job and am on call twice as often at the Daily. This means Bernie = often absent.
Much love to all who I haven't seen in a while - I miss you all. Send me love! Send me letters! Send me both!
The ducks say hi.

so relaxed
I am so relaxed right now. I am wearing sweatpants and cuddled in my brand new gray fleece blanket that is SO SO soft. Thanks again, Ruth! I think I am going to be a vegetable today. That sounds like a good plan. Hooray, vegetable!

AUGH FINALS AUGH
Wow. Finals time! i have a lot of work to do and not really that much time to do it in. Every semester I always forget how absolutely terrible finals time is, and then it hits me with the full force of BlueBook-takehome-termpaper power combined. (And no, that doesn't produce Captain Planet, and, even more unfortunately, that doesn't produce Captain A+ either). Send hugs! Send love! Send support! I send all those things to you too.
