my weekend . . .

it was good and bad.

friday was really fun - we went to the hot dog stand (gen, courtney, matt, and shelley) and ate outside. then gen courtney and i cut out of work early (sort of, i had to come back and finish something - but i had an hour to kill) and went to this bar/restaurant called the distillery. we split a pitcher and two appetizers and sat on their outside deck. i did NOT want to leave . . . but i went back to the lab and finished up and then i got to drive to buffalo (an hour and 20ish minutes) to go to my 2nd cousin's (daniel) first bday. i also bought a present for his older brother - who was born our freshman year (nicky). it was nice, it was just my cousin and her husband, her parents, and our grandparents. i got home around 11ish. saturday, i walked dogs and then hung out with edgar - we walked around outside first at the public market then along the erie canal. saturday i just vegged and watched movies by myself. sunday was the pisser. i got up late, which was nice. and went to the gym, which was great. and then called edgar - edgar had already worked himself up into an angry because he felt that he was being put on hold until jess's shift started. this was sort of correct, but mostly wrong as her shift started over an hour after i called him. so, he gave me bullshit excuses as to why he wasn't ready to hang out then. then another bullshit excuse two hours later - which included don't sit around waiting for me today. so i got all worked up and annoyed. by the time he called me to say lets hang out now, we walked around in silence for a couple of minutes and then he started filling in the silence with mindless chatter and was like ok, i said something now your turn. which i immediately responded with nope, i don't have to - its my turn to throw the 5 year old tantrum. eventually, we started talking about it because i was too annoyed to keep silent. everything was better until the very end of the night because i wanted him to sleep over and he is now on a celibacy kick i guess until july 1st (or until he explodes) something about if i can't get it whenever i want it, then i'll just stop having it completely so i won't be disappointed. it better not last.

this thursday is my presentation. i am not ready, but i've given up caring. i'll pull something together before then and i don't care if its less than quality - this is just a job, one with an expiration date from the very beginning.

and i slept with the window wide open last night and now i feel all phelmy . . .
