catscradle May. 10th, 2005 11:15 am)Without going into it, thanks to a Graduate Office fuck up yesterday was a totally worthless piece of shit day that was a fucking waste of everyone's time, most importantly mine. Luckily the night was much better, so I'll skip along to that.

_darlingnicky_ was kind enough to take me out to dinner for a butter steak at Blackeyed Peas. Butter makes so many things better. I didn't realize this before. If you're having a bad day, add butter. It works, I swear.
Then we headed off to a local new and used CD/DVD store. Heard some music playing on the speakers and walked up to ask who was playing so I could buy it. Well as it turned out, it was the only copy the store had and they didn't have a case for it so they couldn't sell it to me. Actually I think it was the guy's own copy or whatever and he just wanted to listen to it, so there it was playing. I was like, aren't you suppose to use that to try and sell the merchandise you actually have? He shrugged sheepishly. I found that an acceptable answer and said okay and walked about searching for something else.
Nothing really appealed. I ended up buying a copy of Flipper for 2 dollars, which totally sank my cool points by at least a factor of 50. Jesus, I might as well have bought a Debbie Gibson CD to go with it (just as an aside, I wonder if she'll ever recover from Electric Youth now that she's attempting adult type music. I don't see this happening). I had to go on a search of something uber cool to lift the points, because buying Flipper is really embarrassing when there aren't any children nearby to blame the purchase on and even Elijah Wood admits it's a crappy movie. But nothing else really appealed. There's about 25 billion CDs and DVDs in this store, but I couldn't find anything I wanted. I suck. I ended up getting the Sarah McLachlan Remixed CD because of one stupid song that I couldn't download online. I hate the whole CD but for that one song that the internet has denied me. All the other songs are downloadable. You people think I'm paranoid and conspiracy theory minded, well I offer this as further evidence that the universe is conspiring against me. Anyway. My cool factor may have slid further, but by now you'd have to view it under a microscope to know this for sure. Jesus, you know it's a sad day when even your impulse buys suck.
Ended the day perfectly by stopping at the 7-11 to get astrology scrolls and slurpees. Banana ones are good, you're gonna have to trust me on this. Oh, and beware of May 14-15.
I feel a bit calmer today. I have confirmation from those in authority that my total flipout meltdown was brought to me by a total fuck up of the Graduate Office. I am vindicated and Carl may actually live another day. It was never his fault to begin with, but he's a very convenient scape goat for me these days. The End.
