Here I go again, and I'm so sick of it. The whole overwhelm/nothing works thing. It's so lame, honestly. Boring even. It's just frustrating that I can go from such highs to such lows in such a short amount of time. I'll get over it soon enough, it's such a waste of time really so I'm not even going to talk about it now. Maybe later.
Slightly funny experience Friday at the restaurant. Richard came in with a couple of girls I didn't know and stood with his back to the counter, looking out the window. I thought, "Huh... maybe he doesn't want these girls to know I know him? Or maybe he's trying to be secretive or something?" So the girls aren't ready to order and have him go first. He starts ordering a turkey sandwich, still ignoring me. Somewhere between the lettuce and the mayo he looks up and freaks out. "Oh my god! I didn't know you worked here! I didn't even look up! How long have you worked here? I feel so bad! I have to make you a sandwich sometime! Do you do anything ELSE I don't know about?" sort of a thing. I was pretty amused once it was clear he hadn't been snubbing me. But it also made me a little sad at how oblivious and uncaring customers can be about the people behind the counter. More food for the juice bar song?
I suppose I ought to go clean myself before appearing in public. Improv rehearsal. Collin is sick. I'm bummed. He said some really smart things to Lucas the other day, and we could use that kind of energy again. I also feel bad because I'm supposed to be the adult in charge, and so that means somehow it's my fault he got sick? Didn't provide enough vegetables? Who knows... I think he's a bit pissed at me too, because he was feeling better enough to get up and get on his computer (orange juice works wonders!) but when Tommy and I went to Dad's for lunch I told Dad about it and Dad went to go get him. And when Tommy and I left, Dad wanted Collin to stay and hang out on the couch. Poor thing is probably bored and stuff. It's not like I'm the one who dragged him to Dad's or anything though... And I think he WILL feel a lot better as a result of the enforced rest. And he has ITEDs on Monday.
We watched our improv tape on Wednesday and through the discussions/critique stuff we had between games it became more and more apparent that Lucas is playing improv by slightly different rules. Not that there is anything wrong with that really. I think it's just making us all really think about what we stand for and want to do in our group. Which I think is good. But if this starts being not fun, people aren't going to stick to it.... Are we too different/busy for this? Are we losing too many people? Not that it was a big group to begin with.... How many of Lucas's ideas do we agree with/want to adopt? How many of ours is he willing to listen to/ play by? How long is he going to be here, so is it even an issue we need to bring up?
Jennie wants me to come hang out at Josh's to help provide a buffer zone so she can invite Jyoti and Troy. I want to go hear Chamainge (Chamayne? oof. hard name) sing. She's moving to Texas. I'll prolly drop by 3-D after the concert, but I still really need to get myself to bed at a decent hour to keep back the sickness... And I haven't really hung out with G much in the past week.
SHOWER! NOW!
oh right.
bye.
