jackofallgeeksWhat Happened Today?
That's a good question. Let's see...
I slept much better last night that I have recently. I was in a good mood. I got up this morning with a slight headache and dry mouth, but it's to be expected after staying up till 3am. Went to 11am mass, which is good, cause I missed a little work for mass when it has been the other way around - missing mass for a little work. I don't need the money that bad ($4.00), and I feel more like myself, now. And no one missed me for that half hour anyways, so it's all good.
Had work for five hours, had a roast-beef sandwich with horseradish and relish (VERY dam good) and was very ready to get out of there. Walking back to my room I got a call from Claire - just in time for her to leave a voice mail. >< Decided not to call her right away, went up to my room, got changed, called Gramma to pick me up at the Metro, then called her back and we talked a bit until her phone kicked out on us. Listened to my CD player on the metro ('Baybee, listen up, I've got something to say - Man it's so loud in here. When the drumb machine stops and I can think again, maybe I'll remember what it was...')
Got to Gramma's, had chili, saw the cousins, learned Molly's only 9, and Greg is Lisa's age. Whooped some major Smash Brothers with Zelda (my girl ^_^). And then got peeved when I had to wait for a ride home. ><* I'd intended on getting over to aaron's and playing more Dynasty, and now I donno if I'll accomplish anything. The Baron has to get fixed. He just has to.
I did see the closing of the Olymics for it. Lots of cute girls, yes? It wasn't all bad - just annoying...
Uhm, I think that's about it. I think I'll work some on my English paper, study for physics on Tuesday, and get to bed around 2:00. I getta sleep in till 9:00 or 9:30 t'marrow.
----------------------------
On an unaffiliated note, I was talking with a friend of mine the other day, and he was telling me all this stuff about how he just desperately needed his girlfriend. He said he needed to see her and hold her. Now, it's understanable - he's had a rough month, and we all enjoy a little affection, but it just came off as rather selfish to me. I donno, maybe 'needing' someone in that limited, passing, physical way seems wrong to me. Or maybe it's just I see expressing one's feelings like that is selfish. Maybe i've just been cut by...recent events. *Shrugs* What do you all think?

So I don't know. I know I like it when people need to see me, or be around me, or need a hug. Because if I don't feel a little bit needed, then I convince myself that I'm expendible and don't belong anywhere in anyone's life.

Date: 2002-02-24 10:21 pm (UTC)I like the "when they stop the Love Machine and I can laugh again" line, personally. TMBG rocks the box, to quote The Best Grant Ever.
DID the guy only say that he needed his gf physically? Because if all he wants from her is physical, that is kinda wrongish...but to be needed as a person, to have someone need your presence and all that you represent to them...that sounds beautiful.
Yes, yes, those are the lyrics.
Date: 2002-02-24 10:47 pm (UTC)"Everyone's excited and confused." MY favorite line. ^_^
That's how I seemed to take it - he just said how much he needed to touch her (not in a sick way, though ><). I don't know, maybe there's something to be said about the therepudic effectiveness of holding a dear one close, but it still seemed rather...shallow(?) to me.
