My run-on sentences of the week:

I came across very badly while giving some thoughts to an original piece Eb came up with (which was not the Malinda piece she has posted recently) and it took me a good three hours to calm down enough to shut my internal dialogue off and sleep last night. I really hate prejudice and racism, and I struggle with it constantly. I don't think I'll ever believe that I am going to be normal and today wasn't the first time I've wished to be struck stupid and selfish so I wouldn't have to listen to my conscience and intellect warring with each other. Sat down today and started writing some more about my experiences, but just thinking about it makes me feel ill.

Had tremendous nightmares last night. The first one involved having to kill various members of my family to save the world; I actually killed my cousin Buffy-style with a stiletto heel through the heart. The rest of them I dispatched with The Broken Coke Bottle (which is v. significant to me as a weapon). The second dream was just odd - it involved Warren Beatty and I dancing and his feeling me up in front of Annette Benning. He asked me to start an affair with him. Of course, I refused, citing the fact that his wife was in the room, even though he was doing lovely things to me all the while. In spite of that it was tremendously stressful, as getting felt up by a married man would be with his wife watching. Wonder what Freud would say to those dreams.

Went to the Ohio State Fair today. Mullets aplenty and KFCs galore, yessiree bob. Ate chocolate covered crickets and grubs, and cheese-flavored grubs just to gross out my girls. Worked like a charm. The chocolates taste like Crunch bars, and the cheese grubs like pork rinds (yech). Definitely want to try chocolate-covered grasshoppers.

Other than that, I ate:
Corn dog
roasted corn on the cob
couple bites of elephant ear
half of a pork tenderloin
scoop of vanilla ice cream
pint of milk
footlong hot dog with cole slaw

I need an eating buddy so I can sample more stuff - I hate throwing away perfectly good food just because I don't want to fill up.

Won a prize at the 'guess your age' booth. Love that game *grin* He says 18, I win a prize! *beams*

Oh, and applied for job with my old library (I used to be a shift manager in the circ department) - for a Circulation Supervisor position. The human resources manager (even though we're very busy, it's a suburban library system, so we all know each other) called me for an interview less than six hours after getting my app and resume in. Squee - it's more money, five minutes from my house, v. little bean counting, and I'd be managing again! The hours are kind of sucky (as public library hours are) - probably 1-9 Monday and Tuesday, 9-6 Wednesday and Thursday, and alternate Fridays/Saturdays 9-6. But yay! I won't have to drive 35 miles each way or deal with going back to Army Regulations for a job. Would be sad to leave my nice boss, who has been wonderful to me, when she really needs help. *wrings hands* They are posting another position as an assistant for her, and I'll apply for that if I don't get the circ supervisor job. *bounces*

And hello to all those who have friended me this past weekend. Strange how marauding trolls tend to bring people together? *big grin* Please feel free to buzz me on IM if you see me online.
