I started my day yesterday by waking up feeling like I'd been run-over by a semi...Maybe that's because I haven't gotten enough sleep for the last couple of nights, or the fact that I worked-out like a maniac Friday afternoon, or maybe it was the running across the open fields...I don't know. Anyway, I was late to the clinic, but it was still good. I actually got trained to draw blood, and I didn't have any problem with the needle or anything.
If you didn't know, I'm extremely scared of needles, but only when they are sticking me...I'm usually okay when it's other people getting stuck.
I came home after that and ate a quick lunch (it took FOREVER for my rice to cook, even in a rice cooker!), then I went to the AED crawfish boil at one of my professor's houses. I met Megan C. there, but she was in a poo-poo mood at first, being extrememly anti-social (did you know that crossing your arms closes you off from other people?). So I just smiled and talked to whomever, even if I didn't really know them, and was generally pleasant and had a good time. After a while Megan got better. At first it was awkward sitting around not eating anything while everyone else was chowing-down on tray after tray of crawfish, but it was still good.
I had to try some beer that the microbiology class made in their lab this semester (Megan is in that class). They made two kinds, some dark Scottish ale and soome other sweet kind. The Scottish ale was really really bitter. I'm not a big beer fan anyway, and I didn't drink too much, since I was driving later. AFter that I stayed and helped clean up, then left at about 5:45 pm.
I went to Books-A-Million to kill time and ended up buying three more volumes of manga. I then met my dad at the CenturyTel center for the Mudbugs hockey game. It's been about six years since I've been to a hockey game, but it was fun. My little sister and some her friends were there with us too. We ate tons of cotton candy and I had a HUGE coke. I was bouncing off the walls by the time we all left.
When I came home I attempted to read all three volumes of manga that I bought, but halfway through the last volume (about 11:18 pm), I just couldn't read anymore. So I went to sleep. I was rudely awoken at 9 am by the phone ringing, so here I am typing this post, and even though I finally got plenty of sleep last night, I feel SO tired...see you cool cats later...
