Not this past monday, but last monday was Brian's b-day. We saw the new TCM, which I did not want to see, but ended up being pretty good anyway....the gore factor was at least. I noticed Taylor called me, but I didn't call her back cuz I didn't want to be rude, as it was b-ri's b-day. When I left Sarah B's, I checked my voicemail. Taylor left me one. This was the jist of it:
"Hey, Lin. Just wanted to know if you want to get breakfast tomorrow morning with me and Ed at 9:50."
What the eff. They had gotten turned away at the Canadian border where they were going to see Regina and, thus, decided to hop a bus to Chicago.
The next day, Tuesday, I woke up (sick) and went downtown to meet them at Whalen's. Tuesday is free museum day here, so we went to the Shedd Aquarium and to the Plane_arium. Then we had dollar burgers at Bar Louie. This was all w/o Whalen as he was busy and I had fall break.
We came back to my dorm, whereupon I studied for my next day's midterm. Sarah B came over for Nip/Tuck. Later we watched Sliding Doors with Chrissi, and everyone fell asleep.
The next day I took my exams, and then the three of us made pasta, bought some Naked Juice, and went downtown. I went to class, and Taylor and Ed went to the American Girl Place and the John Hancock Center/Building/whatever. Then we went to Whalen's and got toasty. I like Whalen's roomates. Nice dudes...from what I can tell.
We talked to Karl on the phone briefly and made sure he was ok. Seems like a lot of planes crash into buildings in NYC. We tried to watch Fear and Loathing, but there was no way I could concentrate on that. We met some nice kids outside doing some self-promotion. I got a hell of a bomb dropped on me. And then later it started to snow at 2 or 3 am. After much deliberation and confusion, I went to bed for 2hrs and got up at 8am to go to class.
It snowed like a mother that day. I went to class, ate, slept, rendered a decision, and went back to Whalen's. When I got there, no one answered their phones. Ricky let me up to their room, whereupon I found no trace of anyone. I chilled there for 2 hrs and went back north with Liam. Tunrs out Ed and Taylor decided to leave early and not tell me. I was pissed.
But they got stuck in Cleveland for 17hrs. Instant Karma.
Last night I talked to Shawn. That was nice. I like Shawn big lots. He was with Ricky and Colin and Kush, which was cool cuz I had been wanting to see what Colin was up to. Only I pretty much just got passed around really quick and ended up really only talking to Shawn. Which is fine. Cuz I like Shawn. But from what I coulkd tell, Col's been up to some cool stuff, so good for him. I forgot to ask about Mikey D.
Also talked to J the other day. I love her muy mucho.
I still need to call a handful of people.
I started counting calories yesterday just to see how much I normally ingest, but the fact that I've been counting deters me from eating as much. Thus, I was well under a daily allowance yesterday, but that makes me happy. Too bad I work the next four days and don't know how many calories are in Thai and Japanese food. They tell me very few, but I don't believe them.
Tonight is Jamey's b-day. I don't know how in the mood I feel for party central with a bunch of mo's, but whatevs. I can give good face.
Tuesday I stayed up till 7:30 in the am to do my SOCL Portfolio and my THEO midterm. I typed between 20 and 25 pgs that night. Sweet.
Steph and I parlons en francais now. It's pretty remedial, but also pretty sweet, and you should be jealous.
Both Nip/Tuck and Grey's Anatomy need to get more exciting.
The end.
