The good and the bad
Knowing I have to wake up at 6:30-7:00am to get ready for work just makes me feel meh about really doing anything tonight. I just layed around and beat almost all of the time trials in Shadow of the Collosus. They made them too easy for the most part, if you do things right you can finish in half the time they give. But I just feel like I should be out doing something with halloween here. The only party I know of being thrown by students is tomorrow night, won't be able to go to that though. I get to work till 5pm then rush back home to get ready for Video Games live, a concert of a symphony playing video game music with a laser light show. The doors open at 6, so I'll probably have enough time to eat and then we'll head out. I need to do something for Halloween but I don't know what. I work Sunday morning/evening as well as class Monday morning and work Monday evening/night so not sure what time I'll even have to do something. Maybe even as simple as going for a walk Sunday night, but meh, walks alone are too boring.
Lack of sleep has left me really irritable tonight. Starting earlier today when I was on the phone with Leah. It was really nice to get to actually talk with her for a while though ^^ I seem to have the worst luck when trying to call at a time when she's able to answer. Anyway, when my roommate noticed I was getting on the phone he was considerate enough to lower his music, though he seemed to have completely forgot about that consideration a little later on once he got on the phone with a friend and was talking about as loud as he could. Loud enough for Leah to even comment on it while I had the receptive part of the phone away from the roommate. I should speak up more when things bother me, but I know it was just me being tired that was bothering me most. Various other things throughout the night as well that I normally don't let bother me at all.
Lots of other stuff that I'd prefer to be doing right now other than getting ready to sleep. But I can't ignore my eyes much more, they want to stay closed.
Oh, and Christmas stuff. I'm down to 2 options really. Spend the money to fly home during whatever vacation days I could get. Or just stay out here, and still take some vacation time of course. Driving home isn't enough of an option, it would take 2-3 days each way so 5-6 days total of driving out of a week and a half or so of vacation, assuming I could even get that much. I'd rather not spend more time in the car than at home when the vacation isn't a raod trip. I need to remember to ask Leah about details of her plans for the holidays too.
I have to say, in all my travels and everywhere I've been, the Seattle area is the only place I've really felt at home to. Maybe because it's the first place I've really lived on my own, but I like to think it's more than that. Everything about the area is just so nice. Thinking back on it, Washburn was never much of a feeling of home, but more of a big restriction on being able to do pretty much anything with how small and away from everything it was. And when we were down by Milwaukee, once my mom was settled into a house for good, I just wanted to be out on my own. I do wish it wasn't so far away from family and friends though, it's a pain trying to figure out just what to do for situations like this.
Ok, sleep now, I've avoided sleep enough tonight time to go lay down.
