blah. i've actually been sleeping until about eleven every day this week. i've just been sick with a cold and feeling very tired. (this is probably tmi but i think that being on my period fucks with my iron level more than it is so yeah that + considering my screwy iron level is probably why i feel tired often + my shitty sleeping habits + being sick = me crashing and sleeping a lot) ergh. yesterday i actually woke up at 7.30 and got myself a bagel (because i'd taken aspirin for a headache and hate taking any pills on an empty stomach) but while eating it i was watching the new and there was a bit on the case of tori stafford and my mom walked in and explained how apparently her killers had beat her with a hammer before sexually assaulting her...well, that killed my appetite. i really don't understand people, though, or how things like that can happen (especially to children)...it's just really disgusting:( er...and then i went back to sleep until eleven. i also sometime in the night mauled the hell out of my mouth guard to the point that it was ripped into two pieces with the top piece chewed to hell. no idea what the fuck went on there considering i was sleeping when i did it...yesterday was pretty boring, though. i read mostly, and around four went on a walk until about six. i went to the back fields--that place is gorgeous and dirty and wonderful--and just walked along all the back dirt paths...for some reason i prefer to go through the muddy trails and bushes as opposed to staying on the paved paths. it feels more secluded and open to me plus it looks more natural out there. the only problem is that my one leg got scratched to hell, the other covered in mud, both feet (shoes and socks included) were caked in mud, and i got red rashes on both legs. best part of the whole walk, though, is when a little kid came running down the hill to show me the snakes he'd caught and put in a bag. snakes scare the shit out of me but the kid seemed so excited to tell me about it i didn't care. today i again slept until eleven. i know i know but i honestly can't help it :/ again, didn't do much...had a huge headache until about three, plus i felt super sick. but around four i dragged my lazy ass out on another walk. same thing, although this time i also went to the park near here as well. blah. not  a whole lot else to say but it actually does feel nice to just write (type) everything down.
