it hasn’t stopped snowing in what feels like forever.  the last time i saw streets without snow on them was something like the day after christmas.  everything is asylum-white.  and i’m prone to cabin fever, which is worse in PA, when i can’t go anywhere without driving, and i can’t drive because i’ll die.  i did shower and dress to go to class yesterday, but the innocently named “wintry mix” of snow, sleet, and ice kindly nudged me in the direction of staying inside/alive.

i should be doing any number of things, including but not limited to:

1. finishing my poem for a conference at which i’m presenting later this month
2. homework, but my book is at school
3. drawing, for real (okay, maybe later)
4. storyboarding.  several of these items require creativity, which isn’t compatible with ADD-worthy restlessness
5. casting, but that is directly impacted by how much storyboarding gets done
6. looking for furniture
7. exercise? (???)

what i want to do: recruit friends to order chinese takeout and watch a movie.  it’s very much a cozy, stay-indoors activity.  alas, i’m in the wrong town – though, i think i’m moving; and once during my sophomore year when i called the chinese place for delivery, they said, “no.  we’re too tired,” and hung up on me…but when my roommate called them a few minutes later, they took our order and brought our food without complaint.  whatever that means about my phone etiquette, and given the current road conditions, i get the feeling i shouldn’t try my chances at getting someone to deliver.  (also i’d have to order $20 worth of food for myself.  while i’ve done this before, i probably should not.)

so this is what i do instead, because no one will talk to me:

but wait, there’s more…

in conclusion, somebody please talk to me.  my left eye is bloodshot, from all the photoshop.  (i don’t have illustrator.)

edit: somebody else wants chinese, and the roads have melted.  yay.  i’m out, after 46 hours inside!
