mmmmm, I have Zero bars. They rock.
So, the weekend was great. Got to hang out with a lot of friends that I haven't seen in months, and one night was spent at the George Street Festival. George Street has like a ton of bars and during the festival, you pay to get on the street and there's no cover anywhere else. You can even drink on the street itself, in a plastic cup, and it's so nice and warm too. Talk about packed, it's insane but it means you run into people you haven't seen in ages. It's quite the party. :)
That was Friday night, Saturday I had brunch with my old roomie from law school and his cousin. Then we went and saw I, Robot which was ok. After that, I got to hangout with a friend from university who I haven't seen in ages. Turns out he wasn't doing anything because all his friends were away for the weekend, and he's kind of having troubles with his girlfriend, so he was really glad to have someone to talk to. I'm glad I was able to help too, at least I hope I helped. I think he's mainly just reading too much into things and only thinking about the worst case scenario. I know what that's like, been through that kinda thing a lot lately... hell, all of 2004 has pretty much sucked for me so far because of that. But I was always doing that in the context of thinking things could develop with someone, not from the perspective that something that's been great and lasted for years could soon fall apart. I imagine that's a much worse situation to be in, and I hope everything works out for him.
Anyway, I also got some new jeans today and the double live Pearl Jam acoustic album, to listen to on the 3.5 hour drive home. Luckily it was nice out most of the way, although it was incredibly foggy near the end at parts. Fog sucks. It was all gray and hard to see much more than 100' or so ahead of you, even though it was daylight and all. But I made it home ok, yay!
I really don't want to go into work tomorrow, but I suppose it won't be too bad. If I recall, I have a lot to do, which is good. 'Cause lately the workload's been light and it's hard for me to find stuff to do. It's so much easier when I'm all busy with lots to do, because the time goes by quicker than trying to think of things to do. So yeah, it'll be ok. Unfortunately I'll have to go into the office this Saturday to make up for the few hours I took off Friday afternoon to leave for the city. But like I said before, if there's lots to do, it'll be fine. Plus when the office is empty I can listen to music and such while I work, and don't have to wear a damn suit / tie, naturally! :D
Oh yeah, I feel 'uncomfortable' because there's something about my room here that makes me feel that way. I don't know what it is, I think it might be too dry or something, but I just feel off when I'm here a lot of the time. Being away for a weekend I can notice that now. Oh well, maybe I can remedy that somehow.
