hmmm.

just came home to empty apartment, no dog. which i do every time i come home now, but not usually at this time of night and not always alone, so i don't generally notice it so poignantly. tonight it would have been nice to be greeted by a canine someone. a human someone would have made me feel crowded.

i was at a friend's house; this friend has a kid and this evening i learned just the very very beginnings of how to play pokemon. the kid's friend's dad came to pick him up before we could get very far into the game and i cannot tell you for sure whether i was relieved or disappointed. it's not an easy game to pick up. it's very complicated. i have a newfound respect for the whole thing. well after that we watched the incredibles. which was fun.

tonight was one of those nights which i experience so very often when i felt like i really should be leaving now, i am sure i have worn out my welcome, and i wish they'd just go ahead and kick me out, but dammit i'm having too good a time to kick myself out so fuckit i'm just gonna stay till one of us can't take it anymore. in the end it was me who bowed out graciously, for i really did have to get home and tend to my own personal and health matters. i was gonna ride my bike home in the freezing cold but my friend was a true pal and loaned me his car overnight. which means i have to get up in the morning to return it. but that will give me a reason to get up in the morning in case i can't think of any better reason, which might prove useful.

found out all sorts of friends of mine are being friends with each other behind my back. 'nuf said about that. i am partly kidding. go ahead and try to guess which part, you never will. well that's all for tonight. exciting post, i know. but i have to find myself something to read myself to sleep with so i don't die of boredom. and before that, i'd like to get my teeth brushed. before that, i might put on some pajamas. there is lots to do before the meds kick in. i would write myself to sleep instead of reading myself to sleep but i did that last night and my writing was so boring it nearly kept me awake with horror. oh well whatever.
