No Shave November
That's right. Don't shave your face in the month of November. That's all you have to do...
Rules:
1)No Shave November applies to faces, and faces only. Sorry ladies, them's the rules.
2)If you must shave (for example, I have to shave for work), you are only allowed to shave the following: neck-beard and/or mustache. Thats it!
That's it. Them's the rules and they ain't a'changin', not no way, not no how.

Music
So, thanks a lot to Alicia and/or Tate (I don't know who started it...) I'm listening to all my music alphabetically by song title. I started on Monday, and listening in the car and at school. So, thats a pretty good chunk of time... you'd think. But in all reality, I've hardly begun at all. I am currently on song # 275 of 8102... I'm still on the letter A, but not even to words starting with A, for example "A Message" by Coldplay. This is frustrating... I guess I'll just have to learn to appreciate the music I have (since I'm too poor to buy new music)
P.S.
I must amend my previous statement that cold weather makes people move faster.
It is only when a) it is colder than people expect or b) people are not ready for the cold; that people move faster. When everyone is ready and bundled up for the cold, they move just as slow as during warmer times...
Lame

Movin' On Up, To...
Chris' House, to become his mom's slave!
First of all, its snowing, and that makes me very, very happy!
Secondly, Chris' mom is "sponsoring" me this snow season. That means she's gonna freakin buy me a buddy pass... HOW AWESOME IS THAT? When he told me that, I just wanted to run out of class and go jump around. So amazing.

If Only My Discontent Were In Its Winter
I don't know what's wrong with me. I really don't. Something isn't right. Something isn't lined up. I don't know what it is, I can't fix it.
I FEEL LIKE I'M TAKING CRAZY PILLS

The Weepies!
I got this song a while ago with a large sampler of songs and I didn't really listen to it. So when I heard it today, it struck me because it was new and because it fit my mood exactly. The Weepies are one of my new favorite bands ever! Their CD will definetly be one of my first purchases, once I get a paycheck... $28 bucks won't exactly stretch till then if I'm buying music will it? haha!

The Weepies - "Gotta Have You"
Gray, quiet and tired and mean
Picking at a worried seam
I try to make you mad at me over the phone.
Red eyes and fire and signs
I'm taken by a nursery rhyme
I want to make a ray of sunshine and never leave home
No amount of coffee, no amount of crying
No amount of whiskey, no amount of wine
No, nothing else will do
I've gotta have you, I've gotta have you.
The road gets cold, there's no spring in the middle this year
I'm the new chicken clucking open hearts and ears
Oh, such a prima donna, sorry for myself
But green, it is also summer
And I won't be warm till I'm lying in your arms
No amount of coffee, no amount of crying
No amount of whiskey, no amount of wine
No, nothing else will do
I've gotta have you, I've gotta have you.
I see it all through a telescope: guitar, suitcase, and a warm coat
Lying in the back of the blue boat, humming a tune...
No amount of coffee, no amount of crying
No amount of whiskey, no wine
No, no, no, nothing else will do
I've gotta have you, I've gotta have
No amount of coffee, no amount of crying
No amount of whiskey, no amount of wine
No, nothing else will do
I've gotta have you, I've gotta have you, I've gotta have you, I've gotta have you, I've gotta have you.

Incredible how perfectly songs can capture all the words I can't seem to get out myself...

From Unemployment to Most Desired In A Matter Of Minutes
So, today I went to apply at Panera Bread in Louisville/Superior because I heard they were hiring from Alicia. So I go in just to get an application, planing on dropping it off tomorrow when I go to the bus stop (it's in the same parking lot as the park-n-ride).
So I go and ask for an app and the girl behind the counter hands it to me and says "If you fill it out here and talk to a manager, she'll hire you on the spot." So what do I do? Fill it out of course! So I fill it out, having to call home to get some phone numbers because I wasn't prepared to fill it out and I go hand it in.
The manager comes out and asks me a few questions like "Are you in school? Where do you go? Etc..." then says, "You want a job?" to which I say "No thanks" ... JUST KIDDING! I say "Heck yes I do!" (I think I actually said "heck yes" but I don't remember). So we talked for a few minutes (under 5) about schedule, what the job is, how desperate they are for people, how they really want me because I'm over 18, they need people for nights (which is about all I can work), and she liked college students and just "liked me" and thought I would do good at Panera, etc... and I start orientation on Thursday! So that's wicked sweet.

Moo: Or, Following The Herd On A Cold Day
My first and second classes on Monday, Wednesday, Friday are about as close as East is to West. Ok, maybe not, but it's pretty far away. I have 10 minutes between classes, and I rarely make it on time. CU Students, I have to go from the Econ building (on Broadway) to Duane... yeah. But today, a particularly chilly day (39 degrees according to my weather widget), I found myself in my desk even before the teacher.
This lead me to the following hypothesis... People move faster on a cold day. Usually, I'm bobbing and weaving between slowly "mograting" students (mosey + migrate = mograte, thank you Kevin Q) and dodging bike riders. Yet today, I found myself zigging and zagging between fewer students. They were all speed walking (relatively) at a good clip.
In conclusion.. if you're slow, get out of my way.

Yessir!
I want my baby back, baby back, baby back, baby back, baby back... now.
Can I have everyone's attention?! I have an important, wonderful piece of news: Daniela is moving here on the 6th of December! How awesome is that! Stinkin amazing! So, if anyone is looking for a roommate, or knows anyone looking for a roommate or renter, let me know, and I'll pass it on. Also, any job openings or places hiring would be sweet (Because I'm looking for now and she'll be looking when she gets here)
Right now the plan is for her to get a place, a car, a job, and start taking online classes at Front Range. Once she gets Colorado residency (which takes a year), she'll transfer up to CU Boulder with me. Awesome sauce

Dear Diary...
Today I saw a fledgling She-Mullet in it's natural habitat, the bus stop.
I hope I can observe it more to understand it's behaviors
