(no subject)
I feel like I need to change the look of my journal - haven't done anything with it whatsoever in well over a year. Still, as little as I'm posting and as little time as I have for that sort of thing, I suspect it'll be sitting like this for a while longer.
Don't have too long to update as I need to get out of the computer lab and get some grub before my next class. Still...
...birthday stuff this past weekend. Lots (but not enough) of hangout time, good food (tried a new place, a Caribbean restaurant in Canton), etc. To say I'm getting older is stupidly superfluous, but for me to state that says something about my state of mind as of late. Birthday itself was actually a pretty bad day overall. I had back-to-back racquetball and wallyball planned and it didn't go well. Didn't feel "right" during racquetball, let my temper flare after I didn't play well. On the last shot of one particular game I smacked myself in the head following through with the racquet and in a fit of pissiness chucked the racquet against the plexiglas wall in front of me, cracking/bending the frame and ruining the racquet. Wallyball went no better, possibly the worst I've played in the last 5-10 years as I allowed my temper to keep the steam pumping. I ended up quitting almost an hour early, wisely, because I was accomplishing nothing but frustrating myself. On the way out the door, someone else showed up bringing cupcakes to celebrate my birthday. I took one, thanked her, and told her I really needed to go and wasn't up for going back inside. I felt slightly guilty about her bringing birthday cupcakes to everyone inside after I'd already left (and at the fact that she made cupcakes and went to the trouble to begin with), but c'est la vie.
Plenty more to say, but I've gotta eat.
