saturdays reprise

had something of a productive weekend.

  • i got my guitar restringed, which i had been meaning to do since september
  • however it's dangerously out of tune, and while i can simply retune it, im scared that the strings might break again, and further more, the bottom e string seems to be perma broken, becoming actually physically lower than the other strings when tightened, then when loosening, bouncing back and scaring the crap out of me. i want to take it in to get fixed but i also don't want the music people to laugh at me. its quite the predicament.
  • I did three loads of laundry, all in succession - which is so totally unheard of
  • I went to two squater's bars and when warning a friend that she'd get herpes from the bathroom, I decided that it was a pretty cool place. This makes me wonder about my standards for cool - apparently it means as grungy as possible - or just, unusual. I guess.
  • I bought new sneakers - that i had been meaning to buy since july. they were on sale and i got them at a really decent price.

Things I didn't do this weekend that I should have:


  • GRE words - I let that fall by the wayside this weekend, and I should probably get more of a move on since I promised myself that I should be starting practice tests by December.
  • Freelance - I got a couple of things done but when I came into work to work on it I spent more time calling people or trying to call people or watching videos on youtube than I did working and I only went through a couple of the emails in my inbox - that just sit there and mock me - those stupid emails. stop mocking me emails.
  • Clean my room / do dishes - I kind of tidied a bit, but my room needs a bit more effort, its not as bad as it has been, but I'd like to keep it a bit cleaner for the sake of my sanity and health - especially seeing as how cold its gotten
  • Buy work shoes. I had to wear crocks with socks (rhymes, and I will be changing into flats) to work because my flats will not keep my feet warm in this weather and I need shoes to wear to work and to keep my feet warm.

So we'll see how this week goes, maybe I can get some of that stuff done before next weekend, if not, then I know what my plans are at least.

Also, I know its rare, but if anyone from Geneva reads this - have you noticed the girl that unicycles out side the foyer on weekends?

I left Gilberto's work station a mess on the weekend and he's mad at me. And I'm crying inside. But not on the outside, because I don't cry there. Stop mean Gilberto, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. STOP! HE KEEPS HITTING ME! ABUSE! ABUSE!
ok I'm done with the melodrama. All I did was take out his head set and move his monitor. geez. OCD.
