Randomness

I don't normally use this blog for personal ranting purposes, but I feel like ranting/venting/spewing today.

Where do I start? I guess with the good news. I got 100% on my Understanding Planet Earth midterm. That's right. One hundred freakin' percent!!! Ok ok, so it's not so impressive when it's not Advanced Mammalian Developmental Biology, so sue me. You also have to consider the fact that I didn't even really study for this exam since I wrote it the day after Valentine's Day (see A Love Lost). Such craziness.

Discovered a very cool chocolate bar on St. Denis on Friday night. It's amazing how something so simple as chocolate can be turned into "chocolat" by simply presenting it in a simple and elegant setting. Add square white plates and you're set. Didn't get a chance to try to the chocolate itself but I did try a lemon tart and it was fabulous.

Everyone came over afterwards and we played a few games, watched Road Trip on TV and then they all went home. I'm now sick as a result of that night. Since everyone's had their turn with the cold, I suppose it's my turn, but I'll be damned if I'm to just sit idle and let this cold wreak havoc in my system. Not exactly sure how to accomplish this, but I'll find a way. Gonna have to disinfect everything in the meantime.

I questioned posting about Uggz boots before, but I feel it might fit in here better than anywhere else. If you own Uggz boots then you are a ho/slut/tramp (take your pick). I don't care if you bought them in some upscale New York shoe store. They're crap and you are crap for buying them. Furthermore, I've discovered that all hos/sluts/tramps who wear Uggz boots drag their feet. Now honestly, how hard is it to simply pick up your feet a few extra inches so that the whole world doesn't have to hear you scrape the soles of your hideous footwear on the ground every time you take a step?! It's so goddamned annoying! Doesn't anyone have any self-respect anymore?

Ran into two of my ex's on Thursday. I might have thought less of it if it had been only one of them, but two?! And both within the span of ten minutes. Such craziness. Maybe this is a sign of some sort. Suddenly I'm very aware of the fact that I'm single. That's not to say that being single is awful, it's just starting to bore me a little. How nice it would be if only I could find that stable, long-term, committed guy who is, to some degree, normal. If only the last one hadn't had to go to Italy... I have the damnedest luck!!

I'm slowly re-ripping all my music for my iPod. I don't have the slightest idea how to reverse the order of music transfer so that all the music on my iPod can then be put back onto my computer, so I'm just gonna have to do it the computer-to-iPod way. Damn damn damn. And of course in the meantime, I just had to find new music that has me so hooked I can't not listen to it every second I'm near my computer. Since I can't upload until I'm sure I have all my music, I'm tormented by the lack of new material to listen to while I walk.

Finally, having a little difficulty with my hair. I find that more often than not, I have bad hair days, and even my good hair days gradually decay to bad hair days. Must have something to do with that abominable wind. Most days I just go with what looks best as soon as it happens in the morning, but sometimes it takes a little more creativity to get it all set the way I want it. All of this in addition to the fact that it looks a bit like a mullet is giving me a headache. Soon it will be the length it needs to be at, but until then it's gonna be a bumpy road.
