Speed date, well, worked. I ended up chatting with a charming Industrial Design major for quite a while today. Of course, Winter Break is upon us all, which is unfortunate timing on my part. Perhaps I'll invite her to coffee once we return (and I have, you know, money for coffee).
What happened to all of my socks? I had, what, two with holes in the heels at the beginning of this semester, with about two dozen pairs all told. Now, magically, I have about 10 pairs, most with holes in them. I've heard of losing left socks, but this is a straight-up, indiscriminate sock genocide.
I have a habit of making big plans for my school breaks. For this one, I'm going to undershoot what I want to achieve, as well as make it vague: I, Ian James Anthony, hereby resolve to build something out of the stuff in my junk drawer. Not a specific item with a size or shape, but just something. I ought to be able to do that, right? Right?
Also learn a new song on the ukulele.
Oh man, holiday party this Saturday with some friends I haven't seen in ages. I'll have to take the Metra out there, but that will give me a chance to be downtown for a bit, where I can perhaps sharpen my photography skills. This is the party, where, last year, I started my long, spiritual trek, starting with straight atheism. There was a gentleman at the party who spent a good deal of his time preaching about Jesus, but in a way that was not conducive to gays or evolution, and, thus, logic and science. I wasn't able to mount any sort of defence against what he was saying, save that it didn't sound right. I've now reached a sort of comfortable logical agnosticism, though, with a general distaste for both extremes, Dawkins and O'Reilly alike. Perhaps I'll be a little more informed if he decides to slander proven fact again.
Ever sleep until 4:00, and shrug the day off as wasted, spending it watching movies and playing video games?
Man, the negative time after finals but before the trip home is excellent.
Jesus loves you.
