Ee!

So now it's really not my birthday... And what a weird birthday it was. This would probably be a rather long insane sort of entry, except I'm tired and I've got a track meet tomorrow morning that I probably shouldn't be exhausted for (and when everyone gets back from Alpha Delt we're ceremoniously cutting off some hair, and I want to be awake for it)... So, we went downtown to Maggiano's (a rather cool Italian place in Little Italy) after a lot of fussing around over whether we were going or not, and then a few people from our floor just sort of invited themselves so it was a little weirdish, but it was all good. And the food was excellent. It turned out to be like, 20 dollars a person, but we ordered this family thing where we picked out all kinds of giant entrees and just shared them. Loveliness! I love sharing with the people here all the time. So, one of us brought her digital camera, so perhaps at one point I'll even have pictures for a bit. After we got back we all went to this one room where lots of people did beer bongs and such, but they made me a virgin daquari for my birthday, so yay! We'll ignore the fact that I was rather constantly harassed to drink today... but I sort of expected that, and it's only going to get worse every year, so I'd better be used to it by the time I turn 21. I actually feel really good for not drinking so far. It makes me happy, like I've accomplished something, even though a lot of that something has been sitting in my room wondering what the heck was wrong with everyone going to the frat houses to drink. I was in Alpha-Delt today to get my roomie's scarf, and it was sort of... creepy. And it smelled of beer and urine. Ick.

Ok, really I should just give up and write this tomorrow. Which I probably will, after the track meet is over. Egad! I am going to have a ton of homework to do Sunday, but that's alright. It's been a fun weekend so far. And we've got leftovers for dinner tomorrow out the wazoo. Mmmm, gnocci and chicken parmisean and (the sheer number of foods I have misspelled in this entry is disgusting) huge dessert things with ice cream and gigantic huge like, two-story high lasagna and... I'm just going to give up here because I'm just too out of it to type these foods properly.

Oh dear

What a weird day... the internet's late birthday present to me was finally finishing letting me download Xenogears, which I have been hacking away at for the last few hours ... with my horribly annoying sidekick that sits down on my bed and demands that I move over so he has room, and then asks me annoying questions about the game and offers to play it for me. DARNITIHATEPEOPLELIKETHATSOMETIMES!ALLTHETIME!DARNTHEMALL! I just want to like... bash him in the head. It makes me want to move off of this floor, but I like other people here a lot, and my future triple/quad-mates mostly want to stay on this floor.

I've also discovered that I really hate keyboard controlls. Eep, so frustrating! Anything that involves running and jumping at the same time takes about a half an hour. So now, as soon as evilness leaves this room I'm going to try it again. Blaaargh!

I'm not even going to talk about today's track meet. I'll just say I'm pretty much sure I won't be on the traveling team. Which is the plus for the day. Woo.
