Apparently ‘Gay’ Isn’t Contagious

This weekend was ‘exciting’ and by ‘exciting’ I mean… fairly laid back.

Friday there was a bit of energy in the air at school with our first week of class being over. This, of course, is a little misleading because we only had three days of class, so we didn’t really get a good feel for how Fridays are going to be, but folks were excited anyway and there was a lot of talk about who was doing what, when, and where. The consensus ended up being the Bluebird for some 80’s Hair Metal cover band… for the second time in a row, I never made it there. Though we did walk by.

Friday when the end of our last class rolled around I had most of my work for Monday done so I didn’t feel like doing any more. A bunch of folks made tentative plans and phone trees of people to call when something was definite. Last time that happened it fell all to pieces and half of the folks just sat around thinking there was nothing going on. This time when I got home I called around and tried to get some folks organized. It worked… decently.

I ended up grabbing a bite to eat with the CastleDweller and then exploring campus — campus is freaking large. We definitely got our exercise in for the day. When it was getting to be about time to start the ‘going out’ we called Lefty who met up with us and we also tried to get a hold of WashersGuy and TOP – but had little luck in that regard so we headed to Kilroy’s (On Kirkwood) and drank a bit there while waiting to meet up with Sunni at the Bluebird who ended up canceling.

Because she was the only one we were going to meet there, we decided to stay at Kilroy’s for bladder buster (cheap beer until someone uses the bathroom) and just head that direction later.

When ‘later’ came, we headed down that direction but decided (for a reason I still do not fully comprehend) not to go in… so we kept walking. We hit a pizza stand and got a little snack and ran into some other 1Ls and we all decided (well, the ladies decided) that we were going to a gay bar. This was fun and, amazingly, I did not feel any more gay after leaving than I did entering (which is to say that I never felt at all gay) so I guess that’s a plus. We all sort of broke up and went home at random times, except that I still have issues letting girls walk anywhere by themselves at night so it irked me when Lefty just disappeared to go home but I did see that CastleDweller made it back ok.

3:00am I was in bed. 8:00am I was up. Why? Who the hell knows.

I ran to the store for Kec and Dava and then went to the library and read a while. I managed to finish up all of my work for Tomorrow on Saturday. Came home, was lazy, went to bed. Today I didn’t do much of anything except lounge around the house, do some laundry, and then spent a little while longer at the library reading up for Tuesday.

Now, for whatever reason, I’m plumb (plum?) tuckered… so I’m going to finish stuff up and go to bed.
