Staying Afloat

Where the hell have I been, you asked? I've been swamped. In fact, I may be drowning. One class is eating all of my time. Not that I don't have time to blog, I just haven't found the mental capacity to do it. That's an excuse.
I went to a club called Johnny's Hideaway on Saturday night. It was a school assignment that I'm writing about. It was an older person's club. Something my parents would visit for a night of dancing and romancing. We were definitely fish out of water. I was expecting the record to scratch and the stare-downs when a bunch of young twenty-somethings walked through the door. A couple of middle-aged women almost bought me a drink not five minutes into standing at the bar. These ladies were on the prowl! Too bad the girls I was with got nothing but mean looks from the ladies and frisky flirts from the dirty old men.

I danced with a couple of older women all night and I had a great time!! I ought to get a sugar-mama to pay my tuition and drive me around. I didn't mean to drink so much because I had planned on coming home and working on my projects. I don't know how to justify it other than I think I just needed it. In the end, I crawled up my stairs and wrote all over my living room wall with a pencil - ANYWAYS, the rest of my week has been very busy and full of bad food.

I stayed up all night on Monday again. I think it's going to be a Monday night tradition because of my weighty classes on Tuesday.
I picked up a leaf on my way to class the other day because I had never really seen anything like it. It changed colors and was quite beautiful. We don't always get that kind of stuff in Texas. Sylvia said I should go out of town an hour to the foothills of the Appalachians to see all the colors change. It was very nice of her to recommend that and I would love to go. But I wanted to look her in the eye and say "WHEN THE FUCK AM I GOING TO HAVE TIME FOR THAT!" I would really love to go though. This is the leaf:

Nice isn't it? I'll keep you posted. Promise!
