I don't whinge about this much anymore, but in the back of my mind--quite often--is the fact that I'm quite sick and tired of being alone, anymore. Tired of it.

When I hit on someone, she's either taken or has decided I'm not her type or doesn't even realize I've been hitting on her. One or the other.
On the VERY rare occasions I get hit on, it's ( Read more... )

Shot my best game of pool EVAR tonight.

I broke, and then ran the table RIIIIIGHT up until the 8-ball...which was surrounded by stripes. Oops. Chased the 8 for the rest of the game until Tom beat me.

But, still...I have NEVER had a run like that. Ever. Seriously. I'm very proud of that game.

They played Star Wars at the Merc tonight...I was quite deeply drunk and quite deeply enthusianstic by the time Wedge Antilles appeared on-screen at the Battle of Yavin; Wedge is so totally myt hero. Heh. :)

The last decade can go fuck itself.

Happy New Year; where'z my damn spaceship?

My New Year's resolution? Same as always: I resolve not to make the Earth crash into the sun.

And it was a great night, too; there was food (with this AMAZING pumpkin ( Read more... )

Made with the Mercury tonight; saw tons of folks I haven't seen in ages, made a few new acquaintances (if not friends), had a really good time.

Not sure what else to say; it was a really good night. Stayed out past last call, an unusual occurrence.

Having some food, watching Rachel Maddow, going to bed. MTFBWY. :)

...finding out something about a friend of yours that you didn't previously know that makes them sound like a complete batshit, obsessive psycho.

...*waits for everybody to get paranoid thinkin' it's them*...

Well, it's weird. okay? Just sayin'...

Been sick for a while; healthy now. Went to the Merc for a Friday night, and had me a good one ( Read more... )

I really enjoy pseudo-intellectual, scientific/sociological discussions over beverages...you know, coffeehouse blather. Granted, tonight's was held at the Mercury's pool room instead of a coffeeshop, but hey ( Read more... )
