I had a whole smorgasbord of stuff going on, can't remember half of what I thought about posting though.
Dreams have been mad wacky. Including one that was a direct pun/metaphor to work on eye contact.
What ever improved mood I had is gone. I've been super pissed and under the weather with a sore throat and fever.
Earlier this week a classmate yelled at me. She's the one who was being all weirdly aggressive when she loaned me that external drive. I was talking to someone else when she took offense to something I said and started yelling at me, I just laughed at her and walked out while she was still talking. (It was break time, and I wanted to be out for my break.) It took an effort not to tell her to STFU and mind her own goddamn business.
I was in the mood for wings yesterday, you'd think that in NYC there'd be a good place for wings. There aren't that many actually. I settled on going to Hooters which has basic unbattered wings. (I am a bit of a buffalo wings purist.) When I got there I was unprepared for the group of mildly attractive women wearing not much. I was surprised to find that I had a difficult time making eye contact. Once I sat down and got talking to my waitress I was fine, actually got her talking quite a bit. I found the waitresses outfits kind of a barrier to interaction, combined with the fact that I know they're on the job. They're there to make money, flirting gets them tips. I was there for the wings. It's also kind of funny to note that although they were okay looking there were really only two there (an indian woman, lord I loves me some desi women) who were as attractive as I usually prefer. None of the other women besides my server so much as smiled at me or even looked in my direction. I realized later that I've got the subliminal "waitress" bonus from WM. Not that it would have occurred to me to bring it, I was there for wings but hey.
I rarely do well at bars or clubs anyway, there's something about them that I dislike. If I'm at a place to drink, I like drinking. If I'm at a place to hang out with friends I'm hanging out with friends, and so on. I seem to do much better being randomly introduced to a woman through whatever circumstance and then things go from there.
...that's about all I've got today. Time to deal with the nightmarish reality that is my grad degree.
