How do you do it?

Andrew has a habit of bringing up Jacki whenever we hang out.  At least twice per hanging out.  I actually had to tell him that I came along to Giordano's to eat, to which either Mark or Heather (both?) stated aloud the obvious implication that the topic of Jacki would make me lose my appetite (and it's damn good pizza.. usually I like to talk about people and gossip, but goddamn I didn't want to be disgusted).  I fear the car ride home with Andrew might include talk of Jacki, and this displeases me.  I don't see why he keeps bringing it up.  I mean, if he's trying to rub something in... he's the one that dated her for two years.  He's the one that put up with her shit for roughly twenty-four times as long as I did.  I got lucky that I didn't have to, I guess.  Either way, I really don't want to hear him go on about her, saying this or that about what she did while they were together or what she told him while we were together or even any of the new stuff too.  I don't care anymore.  I'd just rather not touch the topic ever again if I can help it as it is a bunch of bullshit, but I imagine I will say something about it if I get the chance to yell at her to her face (I have not yet had an appropriate outlet for my anger, I would consider such a scenario appropriate).  Overall it's a real jackass move and I don't appreciate it.

Jeremy lets some people get under his skin far too easily, especially when they should mostly be ignored.  He also lets some topics get under his skin too easily while choosing to ignore others when, really, it should be the other way around.  Man up and accept things, dude.

Corey is having a lot of fun with being gay and freaking us out by making advances on us or giving us inviting looks.  I find it amusing as all hell (even though it still freaks me out).  There is little cooler than someone who can take something most would dislike them for and turn it around and have fun with it.  And there are few activities more fun that making friends feel uncomfortable in various ways.  :twisted:

Phil and Richard and everyone else are being Phil and Richard and everyone else.

I don't know about myself.  I've been more sleeping and procrastinate-y than usual.  I mean, I am both to a huge extent already, but even more so lately...  I'm also avoiding things.  I don't think it's straight up procrastination as much as it is avoision (a word?).

I was able to get both Jeremy and Phil to install and play around with Arch Linux on their machines (ShinyCat and unnamed laptop, respectively).  It makes me.. I-don't-know-what that I can seem to influence people to try the Linuxes.

This is the kind shit you guys get early in the morning when I'm without sleep.

I am extremely turned off in regards to playing D&D thanks to Casey and Jeremy and partially Alex and their arguing over rules or stupid ass backstories that don't matter, yet you MUST poke holes in it just because you feel like being a dick to the kid.  I mean, really.  What the hell?  It ain't worth putting up with your shit to play 4.0, where everything takes for-fucking-ever.  I like a lot of the changes, but goddamn are these battles drawn out as fuck.  It's boring and I could put the time to better use I'm sure.

IIT's wireless has been real shit lately and it's annoying the hell out of me.

Happy one-thousand-six-hundred-second post.

Ugh, apparently IIT's wired is being real shit too.  I can't wait to go home winter break and get a reliable connection.  This is a freaking tech school, why is the connection so flaky?

I got this on Friday:

Jason: shave your pubes
Jason: that is all

What the fuck?  Really?  These are the kinds of things that should be thought about before they're sent.  Well, really you shouldn't be thinking about this because sending "shave your pubes" to me should not even be on your mind to begin with.  There's a reason why you haven't lost the "Creepy Jason" moniker when I mention you to my friends or to differentiate from otherJason from 3rd East freshman year.

I don't feel like I'm in a bad mood, but this post sure does read with that kind of voice.  This does not bother me.  In fact, the realization that most of the people mentioned here read this also does not bother me.

The only people I talk to on a regular basis from home are Sellers and Alyssa.  Both are cool, generally the same as I remember them being.  Sometimes Alyssa opens up to me and tells me things and it's a pleasant surprise.  Other times it's plain old Alyssa but I'm used to it so it doesn't bother me, I just go with it.  I think for a while during freshman and or sophomore year of college Sellers and I didn't talk much just due to.. lack of talking.  No real reason really.  Been talking a lot again since before the summer I guess, though.  It's all good stuff.  Known the kid since third grade, good man, no issues with him.

I guess life is just kind of lame right now.  What is currently providing me a semblance of happiness? 
Video gaming with Phil and Corey and (Richard|Jeremy). 
Hanging out with Jeremy and others and going places at 2-5am in the morning for food.  Jeremy and I went to the Archview diner (35th and Archer?) at like 5am Friday morning because we were starving.  It was awesome. 
Playing with my computers?  I don't think so, because I know that while I'm doing this I could instead be working on my Data Networks project which is due in ten days, my Malloc lab which is due in six (there's going to be an extension though...), planning my classes for next semester (how long ago did registration open up?), or any number of other useful things (such as buying shampoo). 

What is not providing me happiness at all?
The fact that I am making a fool of myself regarding Sarah.
God.

Why doesn't this theme display the time of these posts?  Ugh.  I need to fix that sometime. 

Feldspar's battery is being a real douche lately.

I want to ride this train right here.
