Priority Use

Last night I took a shift that had me working with my roommate--bad idea. I think somewhere there's a sort of rule on that sort of thing. It sort of goes with the whole, "no dating in the workplace" idea: no working with friends who might cause you to get into trouble. So, we didn't get into trouble. But, we were having almost too good of a time. I don't think I'm at liberty to share--I'd have to clear it by her--but let's just say, at one point, I unplugged the computer and we couldn't figure out how to turn it back on. None of the passwords that we could think of worked. I ended up having to call my supervisor's cell phone and even he didn't know! It was all hilarious and a good spot in the evening.

I've been feeling really bad lately. Not like down, or depressed. I mean I've been feeling like I am bad. I don't do my problem sets super early like I used to, I'm behind in reading, I forgot about meetings and TA sessions and I was a misbehavin' in the workplace. And, I haven't decided if it's better to be upfront about something I think I'm probably not supposed to do and risk no being allowed to be on this board I want to be on, or if I should feign ignorance when the issue comes up. I never was very good at "oops." But, I just might have to try.

I guess that's all good. It means I'm "normal" (whatever that means). My mom was trying to give me tips about my senior year and her biggest worry was that I would study too hard. What kind of mom thinks her kid studies too hard? She said, "Lisa Lovely, I want to make sure that you have fun this year. Let loose." She's a good mom.
