*sigh*

Tonight was one of those nights.

One of those nights where I try to be social and fail miserably, where I want, for the sake of my roommate, to be having a good time, but instead find myself inexplicably on the verge of tears. This time, instead of sitting on the uncomfortable porch railing pretending to be happy, I just got the hell out of there as gracefully and quickly as possible... to find myself here, home alone at 12:09 on a Friday night. Not much better, really, but at least I don't have a happy drunken Aubrey getting all concerned because I'm clearly not having a good time.

Also, I just realized that I lost my brand new purple umbrella. This was literally the first day I'd used it since it arrived from ebay. I called both places where I could have left it, but no one's turned it in. It was pretty enough that someone probably just picked it up and walked off with it.

Grmph. I think I'm just going to watch some mindless TV and go to bed early. If I stay up much later, the self pity is just going to spiral completely out of control.

Things are looking up

Woo!

I just found my umbrella.

If by found, you mean Aubs and I were standing in the kitchen, and she picked it up from the chair where it was sitting, obvious as all heck, and said "What do you mean you lost your umbrella?"

So yay for that.

Very important announcement

I have decided, after much wrangling and consultation, to name my new computer Lucien, after the librarian in Sandman.

That is all.
