the sloth

So today I did just about nothing. I think my biggest accomplishment was watching lots of tv and doing very little work for my job. Apparently one of the first years wrote to my boss telling him that the paper in the printers (in her dorm) were printing out the the logo upside-down. Ok seriously, the logo on the paper is TINY!! Apparently it was 'distracting' to her. I loved that my boss wrote back "um what's with this girl? Isnt' the directions about how to put the paper in ON the machine?" Well, I fixed the problem; I turned the paper around properly. Yay me. I then emailed this chick back and wrote, "Just so you know I turned the paper around." Honestly....who does that??

I have a cold and I've had a cold for the past couple of days. I hate colds. Not so happy about all of this and I wish I were better. I hope tomorrow will find me cold-free.

why me?

Last Saturday, I had made plans with Lisa B to go to dinner and then out with more friends downtown.. Good thing I did. Saturday around 4:45 I received a very interesting phone call. I usually don't pick up my phone unless I know who is calling, but I figured 'eh, why not answer?" Well, this story is just reenforcing the behavior of not answering calls I don't recognize. I pick up and the man on the other end says, "hi this is michael and I was wondering if you'd like to come down to Spot coffee and play magick with me and my friends." I have no idea who this is or why he's asking me to play magick. So, I respond, "I'm sorry, but who is this? How do I know you?" He says, "Oh, it's Michael, you met me at your roommate's office Chistmas party. It's tweak." Then I realized it was the nice boy who I was not at all interested in. Oh man, so I politely declined his offer, telling him about my plans with LIsa and 'thanked him anyway'. Then, I realized I hadn't ever given him my number, nor would I have ever given him my number, because I wouldn't want him calling me. So, my roommate was questioned; she didn't give it to him. I had given my number to two of her co-workers: one for the purposes of possibly getting together with on NYE, since he was going to be in Boston and wasn't familiar w/the area (I was trying to be nice and play tourguide) and the other one I gave because I would actually hang out with him. In the end, it's a mystery how this third guy got my number. I'm not a fan. I thought seriously of calling him back and being like 'um, excuse me, but how did you get my number because I most specifically remmeber not giving it to you. First, you didn't ask and second, I wouldn't have given it to you anyway.' Seriously, who does that? whatever, I just hope he doesn't call again. OH, another thing, the roommate told this dude that I have a boyfriend and he still called. Furthermore, who does that???

Well friends, I felt badly, but I realize the lesson here is: call back and scold. ;)

crazy

Ok in other news, I'm psyched to be on break for almost a whole other month. I hope in that time I'll be able to find a job or at least have some strong leads. I'm looking around here in Buffalo, Boston, NYC, Chicago, a few firms in California and in Philadelphia. The only problematic city is Philly. I know people in all the others. I don't know why, but I'm a little needy when it comes to moving new places. I feel that I just couldn't go unless I actually know someone there. It could be a co-dependancy issue--who knows.

New Year's Eve was a fun time. Haning out with "Elle" and "Angie" was too much fun. I hope we can all reconviene in Buffalo in February. Honestly....the bum grabbing game, the "hi happy new year, you should make out with my friend Elle..." game....too much fun. I figured in playing the 'get Elle some action' game, I would entertain myself and I figured if I couldn't get myself action, I might as well do so for others! hahaha. Oh man, so dancing with the gals from 9pm-3am, totally one of the best new years ever!

I think I'm going to get my lazy ass to do something other than talk on the phone.

"Oh yeah. All good. She's not crazy, just a little misunderstood." .

Window Shopper--how more accurate could this be?

The Window Shopper
Random Gentle Love Dreamer (RGLDf)

Loving, hopeful, open. Likely to carry on an romance from afar. You are The Window Shopper.

You take love as opportunities come, which can lead to a high-anxiety, but high-flying romantic life. You're a genuinely sweet person, not saccharine at all, so it's likely that the relationships you have had and will have will be happy ones. You've had a fair amount of love experience for your age, and there'll be much more to come.


Part of why we know this is that, of all female types, you are the most prone to sudden, ferocious crushes. Your results indicate that you're especially capable of obsessing over a guy you just met. Obviously, passion like this makes for an intense existence. It can also make for soul-destroying letdowns.

Your ideal match is someone who'll love you back with equal fire, and someone you've grown to love slowly. A self-involved or pessimistic man is especially bad. Though you're drawn to them, avoid artists at all costs.
