I love my job and I love my boyfriend and I love my friends and I love going out all the time and having lots of fun in the real world.

I miss the internet something terrible, though. I want to laze about in my robe and slippers and eat chips and drink hot cocoa and actually catch up on this site and facebook. Random posting just makes me feel dirty.

I am in a "Fuck All" mood today. Cant shake it. The sun is shining bright today, which should help. Unfortunately this makes me mad as well. Fuck!

I've been trying to come up with a "First world great things" kind of thread, but that seems kind of assholish, and I can't really figure out a way to word it so that it doesn't. Which I suppose is a first world problem in itself.

Had a good day mentally yesterday for figuring out my problems, but today I'm just lonely. This happened after Québec. I've gotten so used to being around people, i.e. my new friends, that I don't know how to handle alone time. It's bizarre, because I used to be totally fine passing hours and hours by myself. Now it's just... troublesome. Maybe I'll go to B&N later and try to write some. Or something. Just to get out of the house.

Get you a sketch pad and go outside and sketch something. Even if it's just stick figures and houses with little curlycues of smoke coming out of a chimney. If anyone bugs you just tell them you were bored.
Then when you're done drawing just tear the sheet out and leave it right where you were.

I tried making a homework thread one time. Where I told specific people things to do and they were supposed to go out and do them. But I don't think anyone ever did their thing.

Buying gifts for women. Well, buying gifts period, really.

But lets be serious, when a guy has a buy gifts for a woman, it sounds so much more difficult.

I find buying gifts for blokes hard. Buy gifts for girls is so much easier. Just get them something pretty, cute, and somewhat useful, but not too sensible. Unless I've asked for it I don't like a really sensible present, especially from the bloke.

The best presents are always something insensible. That no one in their right mind would buy for themselves, because they're so impractical.
That's why toys are always better Christmas presents than socks.

See, you say thats easy, but I don't really understand what that means. What's pretty, cute, and useful?

Okay... I'm trying not to freak out a little bit, because on that "Apartment" page, there is a salt and pepper shaker shaped like peas.

We call our 3 part group three peas in a pod. It's so appropriate it's ridiculous. I mean, we even have a picture of the peas from Toy Story 3.

I really wanna buy those now. Like, A LOT!

Actually today I was on the train and my iPod died, I got extremely frustrated and mentally cursed myself for not charging it the previous night and I sat there mulling over what I was going to do for the remainder of the ride before I realized how ridiculous it was that I was getting frustrated over that, haha.

My Charger broke today. $850 later, it should be fine.

2 weeks ago I put new tie rods on it.

So my Charger, which is in great condition, has cost me over a grand in 3 weeks...

I leaned over some memory foam that had my iPad 2 on it (Ok, I rolled) to grab something. Dang memory foam doesn't do what it's supposed to and now my iPad is broken.

It's under warranty though, so all should be fine. Still, does the wine glass test mean nothing??

Alecia, you're doing it wrong. People in the Third World get bug bites like all the time. They're just crawling with 'em.

Now, if you had a bug bite next to one of your boobs and it meant a delay in getting your saline implants, then yeah, First World.

I got the idea from Pinterest to send personalized postcards to friends and family announcing our upcoming cruise to Mexico using a picture Drew took of me during our last cruise to Mexico and a template I found on Etsy.

Turns out he only got half my face so I guess I'll have to go with my original idea of sending these adorable DIY sand globes made from empty Nutella jars, uncooked organic brown rice and upcycled LIFE game pieces.

I have 5 hours to make up at work for taking time off earlier in the week but I don't have any more work to do so I just need to be here for the next five hours looking somewhat busy.

You know, like typing and stuff.

I am pretty sure this is a first world problem.
