The Sharpest Lives

Ahh... blog I have avoided you and I'm not sure why. Time for a standard, what has Head been up to lately post.

Monday
I was going to have a run of the mill Monday but then one of my proposals actually stuck so I had to change all my plans and work on that. That pretty much consumed my work day on Monday and Tuesday.

After work, I went over to my Mom's to go to dinner with her and my brother. Dad's out of town on business. We went to Red Lobster. I had steak and shrimp. It was ok. Not a fan of the Lob. Boring food and a boring place to eat it. Anywho, Mom's birthday is coming up.... shit... it's tomorrow actually. Shazbot! Still no present for her. Fuck me. Ok well... we asked her what she wanted and she said a Nano.

Mom doesn't own CDs. Actually I think she owns three. And one is a recent Lionel Ritchie CD. Lionel.....Ritchie. Now that someone has woken you with smelling salts I'll continue. I tell Mom that she doesn't like music and therefore doesn't really want a Nano. She says she does like music. I say who's your favorite band. ::blank stare from Mom:: I tell her that a Nano is a STORAGE DEVICE. It STORES MUSIC. and if you DON'T HAVE MUSIC, there's no point in owning one. "Oh I'll just listen to the radio then." Mom, the Nano doesn't HAVE a radio. "It doesn't?" No mom. It doesn't. "Oh well that's stupid." (thinks to himself, No Mom it's stupid to want a Nano when you have zero interest in music. Music to you is the noise that filter into your ears that stops you from thinking. You don't listen to the words. You don't know or care who plays the songs. SO WHY WOULD YOU WANT A NANO!!??? AGHHHH!! ::breaths::) I'll get you a radio Mom. Maybe a nice handheld one or something. But you don't need an Ipod of any kind. It won't make you cool.

Wow... that went a lot longer than I thought. Just drives me insane when Mom tries to be hip or something or keep up with her rich friends. It lacks in the logic.

Tuesday
Work was my project that assigned to myself.
Normally I'm supposed to play WoW on Tuesday nights. But we were essentially doing the same exact thing we did the week before. And I didn't want to do that. And since I can't see Alice much on weekdays I decided to hang with her right after work for a little bit.
We met over at the Wildflower by my house. We talked, drank soda, ate cookies of varying quality. It was fun. I'm still ridiculously retarded over Alice. And I really enjoy the feeling. She's a good thing. We part ways and I think I played Children of Mana till I got sleepy.

Wednesday
Valentine's Day. Work was a blur. Catch up work from having to do my project on Monday and Tuesday. After work was fun though.
Alice and I met up at my house. We exchanged gifts. She got some lotion and lip gloss and a book from me. She bought tickets to take us to the MCR show coming up. Which is really cool. We're going to pretend to be emo kids. Dress up and everything. I think we might even get to do field research at a local starbucks. Find out what the emo types are wearing these days. Don't want to accidentally look goth or something.
After gifts, we went out to the lake to hang out. It started pouring down rain which sucked and rocked at the same time. Rocked cause.. I love rain. It turns me on. Kinda like catnip or something. And sucked cause we couldn't walk around at first. Luckily the rain stopped about 15 minutes after we got there. It was chilly but I think we still had a good time hanging out and talking and visiting Karl The Krakken.

Thursday
Boring work. But at least I got to chat/see Alice. Went home. Ate some food. Told Jenny about me and Alice. She seemed pleased but we'll see. Jenny has really unrealistic expectations about my girlfriends. She claims that she just hated the Ex cause she was a bitch. But sorry, Jenny was the bitch in this situation. Jenny has this capacity to rewrite history in her head to suit her own desires. Whatever. She'll like Rachael. It's almost impossible NOT to like her.
I then drank some beer, played Children of Mana and passed out early.

Friday
Oh wait... that's this morning. Shit. Got to go to work. Laters.
