Totally random bits and pieces

Fully recovered from whatever-it-was on Sun night. Honestly, I was pretty much recovered at the point that I posted about it; I ate a little bit carefully on Mon and turned down subbing for PREP, just in case, but everything was fine. Today I ran and mowed the lawn and had ice cream, so - clearly, I'm fine. (Although NOW I have menstrual cramps.

She says they weren't hassling her (I asked). I'm not sure about the latter - I should ask about that. I got the impression it was just the idea that said football players would have seen her being Uncool, and that even if they did nothing negative, that would still be humiliating. Sigh. I just wish she didn't spend so much time worrying about what other people think. I know some of that is the age, but still - there are people who matter, and there are people who really, really don't. :P And yes, as a former jr high bullying victim, I know how mean kids can be.

Keep in mind, however, that I had to take a pedestrian overpass as part of my bike commute to school, and that the stoners tended to hang out there, both before and after. They never lifted a hand against me, but I was always still kind of nervous about passing them, just in case they changed their mind. I wasn't, however, afraid to be SEEN by them, if that makes sense. I couldn't have cared less about their opinions of me. So - I've sort of experienced a situation like MiniPlu, taking my bike past a group of people I'd rather not encounter, and yet we still have totally differing perspectives on the experience.
