Today started out uneventful, like most days, I rolled out of bed and got dressed in time for Jane to run through my room to get to the bathroom and slam the door. I decided to sit and have a cigarette while I waited because at this point I had to pee so bad I could stand anymore. After Jane ran out and announced that she was running late and wasn't going to make it to work on time I got ready for yet another day of mindless tasks.
I started by driving to school and heading to the financial aid office in the Main Hall since the refund from my loans were due in two months ago and I haven't yet heard from them. I stopped for coffee and glanced at the Scribe (University Paper) and saw that they were going to begin charging to print in the Library in an article cleverly titled "Pay per print".
While waiting in the office for a financial aid office to shout out yet another bull shit excuse at me in hopes that that will give me enough to leave and come back to see someone else, I decided to catch up on my Anthropology homework and pulled out an ethnography that I had been reading for class. Around 34 minutes after signing in and taking a seat I was finally able to talk to someone, and to my surprise everything had finally gone through and I was going to get a check in the mail within the next week and a half. To celebrate the fact that the end of my waiting is close at hand, I decided to head to the Raven's Nest (a small coffee shop about a block from my house) order a cup of coffee and catch up on my studying. I know, the lack fun in my celebrating seems absurd but the coffee was my celebration. I love coffee and being poor I can rarely afford to go out and buy a cup, I decided that it would be saved for celebrations and mental health days.
So after this post I will resume my homework and head to Robbie's house were I will probably watch a movie and fall asleep.

That's what I call a celebration! Coffee!!!! (....and wine for me, or a good beer, but when celebrating I have to have a cup of coffee and a glass of alcohol)
