hey peeps. not much going on today. i'm pretty much done with my work on the chip; i was asked to help out on debugging another block, but someone else is looking into it at the moment. so i've just been hanging out at the office today.
so how do you guys feel about dating someone in your circle of friends? i did that my freshman year of college with k1. i think it's sort of dangerous, because if you break up, it makes things very uncomfortable. i remember senior year, our mutual friends had to separate us at a party where we both attended. the guys ushered me out of a room when she arrived, and the girls formed this virtual wall to block her from me. it was definitely weird. so maybe it's a bad idea? what do you think?
the weather's gotten cold all of a sudden. i went for a week or so without having to turn on my heater, but in the past few days, the temperature in my place has dropped well below 60. i've had to put on my hood when i go out for smokes at work. like i've said before, i've grown sensitive to having a cold head. i used to like chilly breezes, but now i can't stand it anymore.
so _the class_ got a bit interesting. nicole's leaving her husband yonk for her high school boyfriend duncan. it's sad, though, being in a marriage where you're not happy. i wouldn't wish that on anybody. i hope when i'm married, it lasts forever. and that's going to be a little tough, though, because i know that one of my problems is that i get bored with women pretty easily. it's one of my biggest faults. and i'm not sure how to correct that.
so tonight's american idol is only going to be 90 minutes. which is good, because i had a really hard time last week sitting through two full hours of intros, singing and commercials. i really hope the guys do better this time. they chose really bland songs for the most part last week, and the only guy i really liked was chris sligh. i was really surprised, though, the sanjaya, despite terrible marks by the judges, was one of the top 4 vote getters among the guys.
i'm wearing an old t-shirt today. and that is an indication that i'm getting a haircut. yeah, it's about time. it's the t-shirt that i wore to geoff's paintball outing, so i've got splatters all over it, and it smells dusty, like the vest armor that i wore. i've been going to this supercuts for almost 15 years now. pretty amazing.
did you ever get sent to detention back in jr high/high school? i got sent there once. i don't know what possessed me to do it, but i spit on one of my classmates. yeah, it was a bad thing to do, and i have no clue why i did it. the unfortunate thing was that i had to break it to my parents, too. they were pretty fucking pissed. and what was weird was that the guy i spit on was sent to detention as well, so his parents came along and demanded to know why the hell he had to go. it was a big fiasco. sigh. yeah, i was stupid. but that was the extent of my bad behavior in school. (oh, and once i corrected my teacher once. she was not happy about that, and she held me up after class to tell me that she did not appreciate it.)
