Friday was the best day of my life
i woke up early, the sun was out, i skipped my classes, i felt good, and by 10:45 i knew, it would be the best day of my life (thus far, obviously)
i said, "today is going to be the best day of my life, i'm excited, i haven't had a best day of my life in a while"
and it was, i had great sex in my office, ate an amazing lunch, walked on the beach, finished heroes (twice)
it was good (as in, best)
but then saturday came, and saturday was good too
and then sunday
and THEN we got a piano!!!!!!!!
that did it, it turned into the best weekend of my life
i don't know if i've ever even identified a best weekend of my life
by monday morning, when i got the good news, i said, "fuck it, best life of my life!"
the good news being that my professor, who LOST (!!!!) a huge assignment of mine which incidentally i did not save and was expecting me to completely do it over had emailed me to say she found it, and i did not have to re-do it after all (with no apology)

probably actually one of the scariest moments of my life
so tonight i decided to pull a much needed all-nighter in my office at school to prepare for the two midterms i have tomorrow and write the paper i have due tomorrow
however, i didn't make it past 2:45 AM
things had been going well early on, there was a girl in the office next door to mine doing homework until midnight and even after she left i played music loud and finished almost two of my tasks, oblivious to my horror movie like surroundings
but, at around 2 AM i used the bathroom and started to work on my third assignment when i became acutely aware of the creepiness of it all
you see, the building closes at 11 PM, but nobody cares if you stay in after they lock it up. and, yeah, there are janitors in the building all night (i think) but that doesn't mean it wouldn't be extremely easy for some serial killer to hide out in a bathroom or corner, getting ready to strike
so, now i'm trying to focus on school work, but pausing my music at every small sound to listen really really hard for the culprit
eventually, at just about 2:35 AM, i hear keys
i pause my music and the keys get closer and closer and closer
until...the creepster turns into my office and asks where "dan" is.
i'm on my guard, "Um, I don't know who Dan is", reaching around below the desk for any weapon available
"Oh, you don't know Dan" Creepy looks around, looms over my desk, looks around some more
Explain Yourself!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i think
"Is he a building manager?" i ask
"....no...." looks around, looms, looks
"Does he work here in the building?"
"...(inaudible)..."
Explain Yourself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Who are you? Why are you here? i think
"...ok, see you later..." looks, looms, leaves
"bye"
so, now i'm basically a sitting duck, waiting for him to gather his creepster gang and do with me what they will
but i can't just get up and leave right away, can i?
i wait maybe 2 minutes, consider closing my door and baracading myself behind the desk, but i realize that would make for the most unenjoyable night of my life, no sleep, and constant replays in my head of my certain death
so i leave, my keys in my hand ready to strike, imagining a chase scene in the VU the whole way, but no sight of the creepster
and, yes, i'm alive, a bit dramatic maybe, and certainly a fraidy-cat

a date that was blind
sorry (kelly) that my date went so long that i didn't get a chance to blog about it until now
well, i went on a date that was blind, for the first time in my life, and yes i was nervous and yes i was excited and yes it went very well
joel, the blind guy, was very nice and funny and fun and up for anything which is great
the date consisted of wasabi, the upfront theater, and spaceband at the fairhaven
then a little heroes at my house, separate beds, and the bagelry
interestingly, each of my roommates had a date last night, and both courtney's and mine were blind
courtney and greg, her blind guy, ended up with us at the upfront theater which was fun, we all sat together in our blind date awkward way (not that awkward actually)
but the really really funny part is that the next morning, at the bagelry, joel and i ran into greg getting breakfast, and believe me, that was much more awkward than the night before had been
all in all, i'm now a big fan of blind dates
but don't be setting me up on any too fast, cuz hopefully i'll be seeing joel again soon

OH!
And i wrote my first haiku yesterday.
I don't ever write poetry.
I don't ever write poetry.
we fucked, you gave up
you are such a stupid fuck
your loss anyway
Where have I been?
The next few weeks will be very telling. The experiment will test my will power, self-worth, and determination. It will also be beneficial in preventing the tendency to engage in unhealthy behavior.
I'll not go into detail about what exactly I'm doing, but it started on February 2nd and will cease on the 23rd. Wish me luck.
Did a scavenger hunt this weekend, we gave up about 3/4 of the way through it, which is a little rediculous. But the experience was definately fun and we got some good pictures.
Happy Birthday to my mom as of the 1st!
Passed my Ancient Philosophy midterm (i think) today. Good for me.

Winter Quarter is the best because...
Teachers get sick all the time and cancel class!!!
I have a 4 day weekend!
I'm probably going to get the bubonic plague for being happy about this, huh?
