bad mood

So it rained today. I fucking HATE RAIN. Sometimes I even hate people who like rain because they probably have never lived in a place where it rains more often than not. So yeah, rain lovers can go to hell, the same place that people who don't NEED glasses but love to wear them also go. So the weather combined with lack of hockey, plus car problems (driving with intermittent access to 3rd and 4th gears SUCKS), plus expecting to unload a lot of money for my car problems and grad school application fees ($60-120 a shot times 13 schools), and topping that off with no Halloween for me is making me very sad/mad or perhaps smad. I'm smad. I think to make things better I'm going to go to my friend's house tomorrow (hooray satellite) to watch the Canucks play the Avalanche and have a beer or 5 to make it feel all better. But right now I need to adjust all the grades from some midterm and finish reading Julie of the Wolves before my student does. So those who have read this book, is it really possible for a human to get all chummy with wolves like that (by emulating their gestures and howls) without getting your face torn off and eaten? For those children who came to this page in error whilst Googling for this novel, I apologize.
