Hmm..

I absolutely meant to update yesterday, and Monday, but I'd forgotten what a tremendously evil pain AOL can be. I had this whole nice entry written up, and then AOL decided to die on me and I lost it. Kind of like the e-mail I was trying to write this morning, finished, and then when I tried to send it, AOL crashed... I am going through severe high-speed internet withdrawl already. Gah!

So, I've pretty much settled back in at home, even though it's COLD. Grrr. Lunch yesterday was nice, though we didn't have a whole lot of time. I know everyone is planning to get together Friday, but (of course) I got called in to work. I was supposed to work today, but apparently I was supposed to call them and ask if I was on the schedule, even though in our employee handbook/rulebook thing it says to never call and ask for your schedule.. ah, whatever.

Holy crap, my sister just got home, and scared me half to death. I saw her walk on to the back porch in her big black hoodie, and I had no idea it was her... At least I figured out that it must be her before she actually walked in the door. Gah!

Well, I think I'm going to go back to playing Xenogears. I started it to prove that my sister's playstation was working, and now I've somehow gotten addicted. Drat this game, it's probably going to take me all break to finish, especially since I have to work again now. Darnit, I was kind of hoping they wouldn't call, but I do need the money, and I do sort of need something to do with all my free time, but I wanted a little longer to enjoy it. Blast.

Blargh!

Oh, I am so bored! And to think that there are still people in Chicago doing... well, something at least. Even if it is studying. And here I am at home (not as freezing as before...) doing nothing and being very bored and generally restless. I constantly feel like there is some place I need to be, but I don't know where... I'm not sure if it's a "wait until everyone shows back up in a week or so" feeling, or a "just sit through this, you'll be back in Chicago in a month" feeling. It was so much easier without certain people commonly known as my parents constantly harassing me about stuff. Not only am I an adult now, technically, but I've done a reasonable job of taking care of myself for three months, and I don't even have anything I have to do right now, and they still manage to harass me. What the heck?

So today was pretty much useless... I slept in, watched a bit of TV, played Xenogears (which is now frustrating, because I'm playing it for the story, and it's just taking sooo long), made lunch, sat around online... overall just a boring day. I realize now that it's sort of harder to update this daily like I have been, since I have nothing of interest to talk about. At all. Maybe I'll run across some interesting customers at the theatre this weekend... At least I can look forward to seeing LoTR with everyone next weekend... hopefully they won't be too against seeing it during the day Saturday or something, because I'm sure I'll have to work that day.. either 11-6 or 6-11... goodness let's hope it's not both. Maybe I'll be lucky and get to work opening night. That would be fun... I wonder if we're doing a midnight showing. I need to find a new job.
