soundtrak: björk: i go humble/fan modine: we are the decades
typical thursday's list:
- i woke up mad late this morning (which is becoming a very bad habit) and i rushed to get ready for work. i looked frantically for my badge, in my bag, in my coat pockets, around my room (which is a mess; things just get buried), in the kitchen, then finally my car, which came up empty. i cursed myself because i realized that i would have to go through security inspection (let me not get me started about that because i could go on forever...). so i sped to work (why are there slow people out so early in the morning? go back to bed!) and it took 20 minutes to go through security (you have to get out and go through the metal detector, they througholgy search your car and do a 'quick' background check on you before they let you pass... it's annoying as hell and i'm sure i could give them a few pointers on how to streamline... you see, i've started... i can't believe Y was ever willing to go through that to pick me up). anyways, after some searching, i realized that i would have to alert the work police (yes, we have our own police and fire department) that i lost my badge since i have access to 'sensitive' areas in two separate buildings. set up my experiments to run and went downstairs to get a new id. the guy was so depressing (i mean, i would be too if i just did that all day), i didn't smile for my new picture and i'm trying to figure out if it looks worse than my original picture, but in my original picture, my hair was a jacked up mess... and anything is better than that. my facial expression is like: i'm going to be here for another 4 years?
- talking about speeding, i was coming back from work yesterday when i almost got hit by a van. the only reason why i'm so upset about it is because not only did the guy not use a turn signal (i mean, i'll cut you off, but i'll always let you know...), after i beeped him, he proceeded to continue moving toward my car. if i didn't swerve, he would have hit my car.
he was all the way on the far right and then decided at the last minute that he needed to turn left at the intersection... i mean, THINK!! i was so pissed, i rolled down my window and started yelling... you know i would have gotten out the daggone car, but then i realized that i didn't want to get shot.
- yesterday, moms and i went to go see the holiday. it was pretty good; funnier than your average romantic comedy. usually, i watch movies on my days off because i don't like to watch with crowds, but it was nice yesterday with everybody laughing out loud. we had a snorter too, which was hilarious.
- just... well, not just... came back from columbia and the biochemistry crew + 4 people i didn't really know in college. "you look familiar." i kept on hearing. yeah, i was the girl that was always going to class, kept my head down and was mute for most of my time at umbc. hey wait! that's me now... how sad. :(. anyways, it was okay. nic enjoyed the presents i got for her and the baby: dr. seuss books for the baby (you know you gotta raise him right, said chi the super nerd): green eggs and ham and cat in the hat, and scrubs season 4, for the woman that got me hooked on scrubs. i love my nic.
- i haven't seen the boy in awhile, but when we asked each other what was up, we were both like, "school, work... you know." why ask to elaborate on something that you know so intimately anyway. tonight was supposed to be the time to really talk and catch up, but we always seem just to scratch the surface and nothing else. nic and i were talking about it as we were walking to our cars. rotisserie (his fiance and my longtime friend) is doing her residency in another state, while he was (key word) finishing up school in another state. but quietly and mysteriously, he moved back home to MD. why? who knows? what's he going to do next: go to where rotisserie is and try to find something. but he seems so unsure about it and this is not the first time that he has expressed (not to us of course, but to others that we know) doubt about his relationship. it's his first girlfriend and if it ain't broke, why fix it, right? but i guess there is also wonder to what else is out there. hmm. we're like these people on tv that are great friends and not until something dramatic happens, we don't realize the mess that's going on in our lives.
- i don't celebrate kwanzaa.
- we went out to eat at app.lebees. wtf? it's a great place to eat... if you're a meat eater (to which the boy resounds a rousing "YES!"). i never went there ever before. i ate the veggie burger, but it was stale. D doesn't listen when i say i can only eat certain places. that only grated on my nerves even more. the boy talked to me more than D did and the boy never talks to me. i don't know. i can't change people, i know, but i don't think i'm asking for much. welp, until next christmas.
-my back has been hurting this whole week, so T took it upon himself to give me advice on how to care for it. he's still on his sweet streak.
- and i'm done.
peace.
