i've never been so alone and i've never been so alive
blah blah blah... broken record, i know! my roommate left today to go to chicago so after i got home from class at 8 i just kinda milled around trying to decide what to do with my evening. how the hell do people live by themselves?!?! it is so BORING. luckily today was a good day... i came home at lunch and took an hour nap, woke up and studied for my test. then i went to school and nailed it, finishing first in class (go me) and so fast that the teacher asked me if i was sure i was done. *arm pump* course, i could be wrong... i may have bombed it. but who cares!!
after that i got a hugemongous coffee at the einstein's in the atrium of the business building and just chilled for a bit. my large coffee requires about 1/4 cup of milk and 4 equals before i can drink it... "i don't even like coffee" i keep telling myself as i chug it down. after that i went to this lecture series that the business school hosts... it was kind of a big one because it's the first of the new school year. they pulled out the big guns and got the coo and executive vp of tbs and tnt. i showed up because it was an extra credit opportunity (hey, everyone needs help) but i was pleasantly surprised... the guy was hilarious! it was very interesting because he actually talked about television, marketing and creativity... all things i like!
so anyway, i was all hopped up on caffeine and feeling pretty good about myself when i got home so i sat and tried to think of something FUN to do... but i am by myself. so after thinking very hard, i got on my walkin shoes and took out puppy. we did a full circle around the entire neighborhood and worked on her leash manners. she's getting so much better and it seemed to put her in a good mood. i think that dylan and i have kind of been feeding off each other's funky moods lately... she's been as mopey as i have and it's made me mopey, which makes her mopey, and... well, you get the idea. it was great to get out and it really got us both feeling good. after that i came in and wrote my four page case analysis on consumer behavior and prang fun pro soybean crayons... honestly, what will they think of next??
it has occurred to me that the reason i may be so happy today is that i know huey will be here tomorrow night... i recognize that and decided to ignore it even though i don't want my happiness to hinge on someone i know won't be here for the next year. i think for now i will just be happy to be happy... baby steps, right?
