not exactly lonely...

i'm a little drunk tonight. and i think it kind of crept up on me.
stayed home most of the night, even skipped the performance of the 24-hr play (ie staying up, doing lines, what would your mother say). i've been very anti-social all day. no real explanation. eric brought me over to the cast party at dixon for half an hour or so. i wasn't really comfortable there though, and was perfectly happy to come home again when he wanted to leave (he's been off working on comps most of the weekend so far btw-- his talks are Monday and Thursday). still, making an appearance was worthwhile. it was good to see moros for a second, and to hear what he's up to. it sounds like he's finally figuring stuff out. which is definitely a good thing. stayed outside during "like a prayer" and well. yeah. i can't describe what's up with me. something. but i'm home now, finishing the drink i made for myself to take in the tub earlier. and i'm tipsy. and it's good.

on an entirely different note, at some point in the last few days, trav asked if he could have a haircut sometime soon. this is good. very good. not that i don't love the long hair, because i do. but he needs a little help with it.

i don't know what i want to do now. wish i had someone to bug or talk to or something. not that i'm all of a sudden feeling social, just that i've been by myself most of the day, and yeah.

i also can't figure out for the life of me how much my speeding ticket is for. damn it. if they're going to take my money, it would at least be helpful to know how much of it they want. and i still haven't found my cell phone. may head up to see my family tomorrow and see if my dad has or can help with finding a new one. grr. i'm feeling somewhat cut off without it. which just makes me feel silly. but you get used to not having to worry about long-distance. you know? i should also attempt to talk about computers with my dad again. i don't know. but mine is sketchy.

in case anyone else we both know hasn't heard, my friend ernie is engaged. and i think it's fabulous. makes me very happy. very very happy. so many engagements lately it seems like. i mean, not really. but still. two counts as so many doesn't it?

i'm going to stop typing now. i've babbled more than enough.

at least i get results.

i hate charter. hate hate hate.
we've had blocks of at least 4 hours both yesterday and today where our cable-internet connection has just blown goats. big huge smelly goats.
and so i finally called up to ask why. and they tell me that it's because our cable modem keeps 'falling off.' which is apparently a problem they need to send someone out to fix. but. since saloni (the housemate that moved to ny in January) is the one who's name is on the account, they can't send someone out to fix it. we have to change the name on the account. they only way to do that is to bring our bill and identification to the local office-- the closest of which is in fucking rosemount. i could scream. but i asked to speak to the supervisor who i then bitched at until she said she'd send someone out just this once as long as i promised to get the account switched as soon as possible. so. hopefully someone will come and fix our crappy unreliable connection tomorrow. *sigh* it wouldn't bother me so much, except they're the only company that offers high speed internet in northfield. so we don't really have a choice about who we go through. that and the fact that at least two or three of their employees had told me (on this and previous occasions) that since we're moving out in June anyhow, there's no real reason to switch the name on the account. grr. all right. i'm done. for the moment. but if i'm missing, y'all know why.
sometimes, i really hate technology.
