I'd like it noted that there IS Metamucil in Jon's kitchen. Watch out, Jimmy.

I had a very good day today, first time in a long time. There wasn't anything really about it that stood out, in fact it was just like any other day in which I'd be sullen. All the little things that usually bother me didn't bother me at all. I just had a better time of it, I felt at peace. I think it's due to the fact that the other night I had a conversation with a friend of mine I didn't feel particularly close to before, in which she told me that she used to feel as isolated and angry as I do now. This happens to be probably the happiest person I know. It gives me hope.

Anyway, I hope when I wake up tomorrow, nothing will have changed.

Blog thread,

So it turns out that graduate school is hard work. My real grad classes started just a week ago, today, and since then I have had to read about 600 pages (novels, plays, criticism, historical background, etc.), I gave a 30-minute presentation today, and I turned in an essay last Thursday. In my undergrad classes, even upper division ones, the first week was a joke--if there were assignments at all, they were light and mindless things so that, should someone add the class at the last moment, they wouldn't be totally behind. Not so with a 10-week grad class, evidently.

I've been using the internet for, like, research and stuff, guys! I'm leaving all chat clients turned off. I'm reading all the time and still have to stay up until 3 a.m. to finish things.

And in truth, I'm loving it.

(But I may become even more of a lurking and less of a posting presence on these boards. Not that I expect it'll be noticed, per se, what with my half-a-post-a-day average and all. Just saying.)

Hugs and kisses, shits and giggles,
Elizabeth

P.S. Kids here are a breed of Californian I didn't know actually existed. They're blond and skinny and grew up in the valley (that's valley-with-a-capital-vee), and they actually surf on the weekends and wear flip-flops everywhere and complain when the temperature is above 75 or below 70.

What the fuck blog thread,

I feel good, I mean, really good. I feel great. I feel awesome. I'm smiling for no reason. I probably failed my meteorology test today, and I don't care. I'll probably spend the next week entirely alone, and I don't care. The little voice in the back of my head that constantly tells me I'm worthless is entirely gone. I feel like singing. And it's not an over-the-top sort of good feeling, either. It's not manic. It's actually rather peaceful. And the thing is, I can sort of feel myself trying to find a way to throw off this yolk of good cheer and it's just not happening. This is real, it's not fake. This is a real good feeling. It's been so long.

What the fuck happened, internet?

Anyway, I have to be at work early tomorrow and it looks like I'll be getting less than 7 hours of sleep, and the possibility is very real that I will wake up tomorrow not feeling this amazing feeling but... if that happens I will let it come. It's no use worrying about that. Goddamn, I just used the phrase "It's no use worrying"! Seriously, what the fuck. God damn.

Hot shit, internet. If this keeps up, I'm going to track down my best friend tomorrow and kiss her. I'm going to start over. This is just too perfect. Please God, let me feel like this tomorrow and the next day.

Dear Blog Thread,

Why does my phone not work? It has 5 bars, and I can receive messages but not send them or call! And girls are messaging me, which would almost certainly result in good times tonight, and probably coitus. The only thing I can see that is wrong on my phone is that there is a little red star in the tower next to my reception bars. I do not know what this means, but presumably it is not good. The star kinda makes it look like the tower is on fire, which would be pretty bad, but I do not think this is the case. I live about a five minute walk away from the tower.

God damn, blog thread. God damn.

Blog Thread,

I am somewhat sick of other employees at the library sending people to the reference desk to use the phone.

It's not an emergency.

It's NEVER an emergency.

We shouldn't allow people to use the phone unless there is a small child without parents or a copious amount of blood or other bodily fluid involved.

Back in the day people carried around change to make a call from a payphone. (There is one right there about 25 feet from the desk).

jhocking · « **Reply #2110 on:** 01 Oct 2008, 15:09 »

A pay... phone? Is that like a cellphone you have to put money into?

negative creep · « **Reply #2111 on:** 01 Oct 2008, 15:55 »

Look at him, trying to convince us that he's not fucking old. Give up! We know that you're older than the payphone anyway!

Jace · « **Reply #2112 on:** 01 Oct 2008, 16:55 »

People get mad at my work because we don't have a pay phone. They give this disgusted "What do you mean you don't have a pay phone" look and tone. It's ridiculous.

Jace · « **Reply #2114 on:** 01 Oct 2008, 17:05 »

I work in a hotel. Its in sort of a shitty neighborhood. Well, now its a shitty neighborhood. It used to be a pretty nice place. But we are near the mall that the white people used to go to. Cars get stolen from the area all the time.
But we took out the pay phone to keep the homeless out.

jhocking · « **Reply #2115 on:** 01 Oct 2008, 17:43 »

huh, homeless are attracted to payphones? So that's why they're always asking for change.

Guys, tonight I filled out my voter registration and decided to send out 2 letters to ladyfriends who live in far away states.

EDIT: I wanna talk about Kung Fu some.

So, lately I've been getting up front and leading the beginning classes for Kung Fu. Its a totally different feeling than just being in the class. Knowing that you have 15+ people who are doing whatever you say to do next is amazing. That theres these people of all ages looking to you as to what to do next. I love it. Then of course, there is the feeling you get when you don't just follow the normal stuff, when you actually do something new. I did that last night. It was awesome to have people seem a little confused at first, but then realize what you were doing. They liked it. I loved it. After actually leading these classes, I've really realized that this is what I want to do for my life. This is my thing. With each class, I feel more and more confident getting up front.

I get the most elated feeling when I get to stand up and be the first person in line, when I am the highest rank and my instructor bows us out and addresses me as bowing to assistant instructors. I love that feeling. Just wanted to blog some.

tl;dr=I love Kung Fu and I talked about it.

So here is the deal blog thread,

Not too long ago, I uh.........had a threesome with a very pretty lady. And I realized that I have been thinking about her a lot lately. So I texted the guy who introduced us, and asked for her number. And I have been texting her tonight. And I don't know. I want to hang out with her for sure. But I am not really sure if I want to like see her romantically, or just hook up, or just be friends. Any of those choices are difficult for me. It is basically really hard for me to form even the most basic of relationships. I don't know. I am unsure about what to do.

I thought it was a genuine question. Then I was curious, so I went over to google.

But yes, I think I might have liked it a little bit better.

Emaline · « **Reply #2127 on:** 01 Oct 2008, 22:08 »

Admittedly, I thought you were being an ass by suggesting google. So I was an ass back. In all honestly, I would imagine some do.

Also, assback sounds like a hilarious insult.

Jace · « **Reply #2128 on:** 01 Oct 2008, 22:15 »

If I were being an ass, I would have suggested Ask Jeeves.

So anyways guys, I'm at the hotel here and a guy called and said "Hey, what'd you say your name was" so I said "Jace" and he says "Oh okay, I was staying there last week and I was checking you out, are you gay?" I said, 'no' and he said "Oh.. well, are you bisexual, maybe even just a little bit" I said, "no, not at all"

I was just sort of caught off guard by that remark. I guess I'm sexy?

Spluff · « **Reply #2129 on:** 01 Oct 2008, 22:17 »

You probably give off a gay vibe.

Emaline · « **Reply #2131 on:** 01 Oct 2008, 22:20 »

Man, I wish I gave off a gay vibe. Though maybe I do. I've had a bunch of people come up to me and say "So...what are you?" lately. It is a weird question.

Also, was he hot?

Yeah, in my experience (as a friend and outside observer) lesbian relationships are often a little fluid anyway. Women regularly start as friends, become lovers, and go back to being friends several times before settling on being one or the other. So just hang out and see what happens.

Guys, I think I am going to see if she wants to hang out this Saturday. I mean, I am supposed to work, and/or go to this sci fi convention with a different friend of mine who I occasionally fuck around with, but pretty girls beat pretty dudes almost always.

ETA:

A very very very good friend of mine, who currently goes to school in Chicago, just found out that Justice will be playing there on December 31st. This is totally our anniversary! Should I try to take impossible days off of work, pay ridiculous train fare, and possibly ridiculous hostel fare, just to dance my butt of with a guy who is quite possibly my bestest friend ever on our anniversary?

It was a no until the bolded part, then it became a YES. But then again, I'd do nearly anything for my friends.

Bonus points: I'll have my own place next year and she'll be staying over. Lots.

Does that mean you are having a long-distance relationship or are you both doing your own thing until you get back and resume in earnest? Either way I wouldn't get too confident that it's all still gonna be there next summer.

I know I'm being a HUGE buzzkill but it's worth saying, dogg.
