Eponymous, round two.

1. The gas station attendant who filled up my car asked if I ever wear contacts. Is he implying my glasses make me look not-cute? I choose to disagree.

2. Why is my office so cold? I feel as though it’s the kind of cold that will make my nipples fall off.

3. My stepgrandmother has a quirky sense of humor. After a diabetic episode more or less rendered her unconscious, she awoke to see several young, good-looking paramedics standing around her bed. She promptly announced that she thought she was dreaming to my mother and me. Also, when she saw a sign that said, “Please let your x-ray technician know if you are or think you might be pregnant,” she declared “I’m pretty sure I’m not pregnant.” The woman is eighty-something years old.

4. In other random news, my cat lost her ball. She has now resorted to playing with q-tips that she steals from my dresser. That is, when she’s not busy stealing my bed.

5. One of my coworkers at Retail Store invited me to a gaming night. At first I thought he meant Dungeons and Dragons kinda gaming. But then he said board game kinda gaming. I feel slightly honored and slightly insulted. Am I really that nerdy?

6. I kind of like that I’m beginning to get to know people at Retail Store. There are some people I feel as though I can genuinely be friends with. I’m even getting recruited into a book club, though my obvious penchant for books may be visible as I always have one in my bag and whip it out during breaks.

7. Why am I randomly craving greasy Chinese food? I blame my period. I also blame my period for not letting my boobs fit into one of my favorite shift dresses that I bought in San Francisco. McGee knows which dress I’m talking about.

8. As much as I love my internship, I’m going to be very happy when it’s over because I’ll have a LOT more free time. And get to sleep in my bed more often, for longer.

9. Avocado is coming home next week! Even though home is now an hour away as opposed to the ten minutes (max) it used to be when we lived one town apart. Both our parents moved while we were gone. Clearly, they weren’t thinking about our need for close proximity when they moved.

10. I don’t see a point to spending $500 dollars on a phone. No matter how cool or nifty or touch-tacular it is.

11. Gymnast Drummer Boy really likes his fish.

12. As much as I don’t want to say it, I kind of like looking at the two Prozac pills in the morning when I take them. They’re two different shades of blue, and they’re pretty. It makes me happy for no random reason. Blue for depression? Blue for pretty?

13. Classes start this week. I am slightly terrified. I’ve not been to a class since June ‘07. Eep.

14. Ask me how my thesis is going. I’ll tell you. (It’s not. No time!)

15. The last two days, I’ve gone to sleep before 10:00 P.M. It makes those early morning days positively delightful. I encourage all of you to go to sleep early as well.

16. After spending most of Saturday in Coney Island Hospital, I’d like to now establish that Brooklyn makes me claustrophobic. Which is weird. As I grew up there. Is it the depression speaking? Or am I ready for a change of pace? All I know is I don’t think I have the nerves right now to deal with city-driving and Brooklyn drivers are AWFUL. Just throwing it out there.

17. Why are they building high-rise developments in Coney Island? I get that it’s been kinda lame for a few decades…but still. It’s Coney-freaking-Island!

18. I’m ready for lunch.
