Friday the 13th... lucky?
You be the judge.
Today I:
wrote off hours of work on schoolwork. because I realized belatedly I'd screwed up.
Wasted way too much time here, online, after demoralization. :p
Smashed my elbow on a shelf.
Dialed a number 5 times (twice, then checked the CALL DISPLAY at home.. then 3 more) and did not get the intended recipient.
Had to tell factoid he couldn't bring a friend to the poker game due to numbers. :(
Ended up having my parents have to let people in because I wasn't back yet with James. (see above bit about phones)
..oh, and right before playing poker? I broke a stack of plates. not just one. no. 4. four plates. ah ah ah aaah. (crap)
Not all that productive a day. Rather counterproductive.
but:
I got to bring a bunch of far-flung friends together (many had met before, but not all, and not often).
They all at least seemed to get along.
Had the most amazing catered sandwiches from Bread and Circuses "donated" for tonight by the meeting at my house. Cookies & beverageness too (mmmm. cookies). So I got dinner anyways.
And, just to top it off, I won the night with the most incredible luck with cards, ever (dan was not amused with the last hand, I do not think).
I am now 100$ richer. Nice.
So I think things evened off more than evened off, if not for the smashing of plates (gah).
