I wish I could be more content with myself and with life. In general. I just had an awesome weekend, but still I think of things about it that could have been better. But these things involve circumstances that are entirely out of my control.
As I said, my weekend was lovely. Steph and Dave and Paula and Tony all visited for FRIGHT NIGHT. I fell asleep during Poltergeist. Big surprise there. But I did manage to stay awake through the newest Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Which was not nearly as scary as the original. (Although I did wake up several times during the night expecting to see Leatherface in my bedroom.) I got a new video card so my computer won't suck. And also Sims 2: University. But I think I'll need to set boundaries with this, such as: get in all grad school applications, or at least what I can of them, before I play one second of it. In other words: BE RESPONSIBLE. Which I am. Disgustingly so. So it shouldn't be too difficult a task for me.
Also, I picked up yet more strangers yesterday, and this time I had two witnesses to the phenomenon that is my ability to be completely disarmingly charming and pick up strangers...and all completely by accident. I don't even realize I do it until it's done. The guy at Borders Express, and then our waiter at Ruby Tuesdays. It's almost getting to be a problem.
I need to do laundry and make an attempt at sleep as well.
