One Of Those Days

You know when everything seems to be weighing down on you.. money, work, school, the fact you actually have 70lbs of laundry and 9$ on your laundry card... It was totally one of those days. I went to class, and it was so intrinsically useless to my life that the time would have been better spent working on the numerous essays due...or bathing, which, much to the chagrin of my boyfriend I am sure, would have been preferable as this is day 4 of the stretch. (I did wash my bangs this morning. You know. A girl can only go so far.)
So yeah, it was one of those days.
And then, I sent out an e-mail inviting everyone for dinner (don't ask me why.) - a big easy pot of curry and rice. Sabine offered to bring wine, Joanna offered ice-cream, Kyle brough Guinness and Taylor's homemade Eatmore bars. I found this nice Swedish girl at Starbucks who apparently lives on the 8th floor and I brought her, Lauren and Amy and Susan came by, and we all had dinner. It was perfect. We drank, we laughed, we ate way way too much...
I feel so much better. Sometimes to recharge it helps to see a whole bunch of people well fed and watered and happier than I feel. My kitchen feels like a happy home, and I'm totally ready to conquer it all. Well.. at least tomorrow, and my AI essay. Which is a step in the right direction.
