One Giant Suck-fest

I'm so frustrated right now. Life for me just seems to be one giant suck-fest. Somebody's joke.


Some asshole stepped on my computer last night. Ray, Becky and I had gone to the bar with the intention of getting some work done there. Of course, we didn't get any work done, but that's alright. We had a good time with ourselves. I had my computer shut and in its case, partially underneath my seat. At one point, a huge group of guys stumbled into me. One of them must have stepped on my computer, completely cracking the screen and damaging the touch screen.


Even looking at it made me want to cry. Oh my god. It was horrible.


The good news is that it's covered under my Geek Squad protection. The bad news is that I'm computer-less for a month. AKA the rest of the semester.


More bad shit happened at the bar. We walked in there, and my department was there. Nobody had invited me, and nobody had invited Ray. They didn't ask us to sit with them. We were just like, "fuck that" and got our own table near the back of the bar.


Whatever. Obviously they do not like me very much. I don't even know why I bothered trying, given my track record with my departments at Penn State. This disproves Laura's theory that Penn State was the problem. Apparently, this problem will follow me around everywhere I go.


Then as we were leaving, I got hit on by a lesbian. Fucking hell.




I'm lucky that I have Ray and Becky. They were both there for me today. Ray took me to Starbucks for some coffee. Becky met us there. Then Becky took me to Best Buy about my computer, and then Target to return my cottage cheese.


Oh yeah, I'm eating a gluten free diet now. It's possible that all of my symptoms are from gluten intolerance. We'll see how that goes. Honestly a gluten intolerance would be better than the alternatives-- which would currently be rheumatoid arthritis or lupus. The rash actually improved a lot after my first day of gluten free, so it's highly possible that that's my problem.


Anyway, Becky and I went to the mall, where I got new athletic shoes. They are beautiful and purple and I love them. Then we both got makeovers at the Clinique section of Macy's. Becky was looking for new foundations and concealers. She told them to show me how to do eye shadow. It's funny because I'm pretty good at doing makeup BESIDES eye shadow. So it's about time I learned how to do it nicely. I got some new products too for my skin. That helped perk me up a bit.


Afterward, we went to Noodles for dinner. They made my pasta gluten free, but I'm kind of itching a little right now so maybe there was cross-contamination. Funny enough, we ran into Jerry while we were there. Jerry is also gluten intolerant. He and Becky got along pretty well too, which was nice. I was glad to see him.
