Rambly

Written 3/10:
I spent part of the week being pissed off at the guy in our cohort who chose to ask me about my "eye problem" a few weeks back. He was insensitive, made me feel self-conscious and small. Tacky comments by people who should know better make me crispy.

I spent part of today considering the importance of a support network. People should not have to go through hard times alone, yet there are people who find themselves isolated and alone. Some are isolated because they treated people shitty along their life journey, others are just isolated due to strange circumstance. I am confident in my own support network, but probably could do a lot more in terms of being a supporter to people in my life. Hmmm...

I'm baffled by the fact my cell phone interacts with my iPod tape deck converter thingy in my truck. It makes this strange buzzing noise whenever I get an incoming call, or when it just decides to. For awhile, I had this conspiracy theory about police radar guns making it buzz, too -- so I would always reduce my speed -- but I think this theory is full of shit. If someone could logically explain this to me, I'd appreciate it!

Ate at the "Happy Dragon" this evening. It made me sorta gassy, I think. The cashew chicken I ordered ending up being a majority of water chestnuts, which was mildy disappointing. This restuarant gets bad reviews in my book. However, Costco's Kirkland Signature food won some points -- I bought lunch for six people today for less than $15. Props to you, Costco!

Spent some serious time tonight laughing with these cool chicks I know. We played games -- laughed a lot -- and it was good times. It's been awhile since I've dubbed something a legitimate "good times" (a phrase I try to reserve for distinct quality times, generally with friends I feel fairly comfortable with, generally when much laughter/craziness/mayhem occurs).

Lastly, 'fore I crawl into my toasty warm bed and crash out before the alarm goes off at 5:45am.... My parents and I got a little morbid last night discussing getting our wills in order before we all go to Sweden. I'm trying to figure out who to leave my student loan debt to -- any volunteers?
