2001.11.20 i'm living in cloud cuckoo land:
last night i went over to help my aunt and uncle clean out their computer. they've built up a terrible amount of junk over the last couple of years, so i was over there for a little while. they eventually decided that they wanted to build a new computer, all together. this is cool, everyone needs a little computational speed in their lives, right? there's a point when that pentium 100 with a 4x cd-rom drive just won't cut it anymore…
i skipped the coffee this morning. sorta. i stopped off to get some juice and ended up grabbing one of those bottled frappucinos. damn it. but i'm drinking orange juice right now. does that count for anything? at all?
looks like the holiday weekend filled up pretty quickly, even though i think i'll be sitting at home eating turkey sandwiches on the actual thanksgiving holiday. i'm supposed to hang out with the girl (no longer the girlfriend, long story) later thursday evening, post-family commitments. kilowatthours is playing friday night at aslans how art gallery. and i have a few odds and ends to take care of saturday. next weekend i'll be heading up to cincy to see hey mercedes at bogarts.
and then i need to start thinking about christmas. ugh.
when i walked down out of my room, this morning, i was still surprised to see jess's door open and her room and closet completely empty. if you've ever seen the room before, you know that this instance and when she was actually living there are complete polar opposites. for the most part, even when she "cleaned" her room, you could barely see the floor. now the house feels so big and empty. kinda like when matt moved out. i was alone in the vastness of the third floor, not knowing what to do with all that room. it's the end of an era, really. all of the original tenants of the apartment are now gone. soon it'll just be me and scott.
oh yeah…and clyde.
