Off and On

Had my day off. I didn't do anything special though. Woke up near 11AM, did the usual routine, and watched TV. I saw the last half of "The Last Kiss." Definitely not into that movie. I do like how they used the f-bomb, but the last 20 minutes were just terrible.

I then switched to "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind." That's still one of my favorite movies. I like the idea of having memories erased. But I also think if that service existed, I still wouldn't use it. It interests me more because I would be curious to see who erased me.

When I can't think of anything to write about, I just check what I was doing a year ago. Last year, on this day, a cold front passed through. I thought it was interesting because a cold front just passed through today as well. I don't know anything about weather patterns. Maybe it's a coincidence, or it could be something that just happens every year, no matter what.

Around this time in 2003, I went to a wedding. I remember a few things, but mostly that it was a nice hotel, and I went out to eat afterwards. I do remember 2 other details though. I should mention that most of the people in attendence at that wedding were people I knew from church. Yes, a long, long time ago, I went to church. It was every Sunday, Monday, and Wednesday. When I turned 12 or so, it was just every Sunday and Wednesday. By the time I was 14, it was just on Sunday. I don't remmeber exactly when I stopped going, but I didn't miss it. It was on repeat mode, and I don't need anyone telling me what's good and bad.

Either way, there were 2 chics there. I had known one since I was 7, and the other since I was 10 or so. I'm just guessing on the age. The first came up to me and wanted to talk for a bit. So we found a table and went over our pasts. I don't remember much about what was said, but she did seem interested. After our conversation ran its course, her friend showed up at our table. So we started talking about what we were planning to do with our lives. She was going to become a nurse, and I was still in Electrical Engineering at that point. She was interested as well.

I think that they wanted to keep in touch. They understood that I called Austin home, but it's almost as if they were hoping I would be back in Dallas at some point. I mean, at the time it was my best option. Since that night, I haven't talked to either.

I'm working from 4PM to close tomorrow. The day goes by fast, so I don't think I'll suffer or anything. Honestly, it's really easy. But I have to watch some DVDs or something about training. It's going to suck. But at least I'm paid to do it. That's all that matters right now.

For the first time in a long time, I'm going to sign onto AIM. Of course I'll change my status to away, but I'll get to see how many people still get on.

Eh, still boring. They moved one of my shows to an hour later. I don't feel like killing 2 hours when I could go to sleep now. It could be worse. I could eat junk food when I'm bored.
