today the glitterbomber is... |
2003-07-10 i ended up having a fairly stressful day at work today (business and deadlines), so after that and after a therapy session that almost had me in tears, i was feeling wiped out. i was also shaky from having hardly eaten. good thing i had plans with amy e to get dinner afterwards. when i got to her house, i was a bit crazed and talking a mile a minute, but after we went out and got some food, i mellowed out a little. there�s a new krispy kreme in our neck of the woods, so that was on the agenda, as well. then we watched a wacky japanese movie from the 50s. it�s about a boy whose family won�t buy a tv, so he stops talking. oh, and i finally got to meet little orange kitty�, one of the stray cats that amy�s family is taking care of. l.o.k.� was so. damn. cute. she was so friendly and happy. i�d have brought her home with me if my own kitty wouldn�t explode and die from having to share me. the other day, i received in the mail a bill from the lovely people at sallie mae. it was a bill for some interest that i owe on my student loans. $1.90 in interest. i can�t believe those idiots sent me a bill for that much�or little, i should say. those people waste so much paper. in other weird mail news, i got a letter from the department of health and human services telling me that i�ve been randomly selected to take part in a childhood immunization study. since i don�t have any kids, i doubt i�ll qualify. it was pretty cool, though. when i lived with my sister, our apartment was an address that the census bureau was using to track employment data. every few months, a census person would call us and find out all kinds of things about our jobs and education. i guess i�m a big nerd, but i like doing stuff like that. maybe that�s part of the reason i ended up with a job doing research. a year ago today, i �met� my boy�. it was completely random and totally by chance, and i think i�m extremely lucky that we did come into contact with each other. i can�t imagine my life without him, and i don�t want to. i could get all mushy here, but i�ll spare you. (oh, and he wrote about it here.) *** quotes of the day: �you have to have a lemon on it. what the hell?� �garnish-loving man in the booth behind us at the restaurant me: do i look amish? |
