I'm so tired, I'm not even sure why. Tuesday, I played poker, I think. Lost a buck or two. Tuesday's not my lucky day of the week, apparently. Wednesday not much happened. I talk to Tara for like 2 hours. I'm not even sure what we talked about. Sometimes with her I just get on about something and it's like I can't shut up. Thursday was nothing. Friday I went to Gameworks with some of Austin's work friends. It was pretty fun. Arcade games pretty much suck now though. All they are either simulation sports games or shooters. It's all because console games can do anything an arcade game can do, usually better. So the only thing an arcade game can do that you a home system can't is create a game where you pedal and steer a bicycle, and other types of simulations. My brother and I once saw a go-kart driving game. It was like, OK, a simulator of a simulated driving experience?
Saturday I went Christmas shopping at the Mall of America. Enough to make me say, Bah Humbug. Spent too much on my brother Bill. Bought my mom a gift certificate to Nordstrom's. Last time I'm ever going in there. It's so, high society, yet fake at the same time. Like they're trying too hard. I went up there and picked out a gift card and the lady said, "A gift card, is that ALL?" I was like, "Yup, that's all," Look, I get looked down upon enough of the time, I don't need to go to a place specifically designed to make me feel lesser or inferior. That night I decided to go to Brian's instead of go see Last Samurai with Austin. We played Gladius, but Last Samurai would've probably been better. I need more girls in my life, I've realized. Oh well. Sunday was nothing much. I went to my parent's piano recital. I almost got the Christmas spirit when the three piano teachers brought up their families and they all sang some Christmas carol. But that all went away fairly quickly. I doubt I'll find the Christmas spirit this year.
Grrr, why won't Word learn that I don't care if I have sentence fragments? Sunday night I played poker and lost all my $5. It was that stupid guts game. I could not get a win. I also went all in on the last hand for the hell of it. We had two girls come over and they wanted to learn how to play. It was all right, but teaching them was a bitch, especially since everybody tried to teach at once. Of course one of them only had 6 hours of sleep in the last 3 days, and kept telling us over and over and over again.
Monday was nothing, so was Tuesday. Today I didn't do much. This morning I had to drive to Minneapolis to the Office of Minneapolis Ramps or whatever for work. That took me an hour. The traffic was horrible. A little snow and everyone in Minnesota slows to 2 mph. Oh well.
Thought of the Day: There was a time, a few years ago, where any given night, I could go onto any online chat room, talk to some girl, meet her that night, and at least make out with her. I wonder what happened to change all that...well, I kind of already know. But these days, I don't even know of a chat room I could go to, let alone pick up a chick in one. I probably should just learn how to do it the old fashioned way, although, I actually have no idea how to do it the old fashioned. I think I'm slightly dysfunctional in that area, and other areas as well.
