"Everybody knows its all about the things that get stuck inside of your head"

UF vs. UM game today, should provide more than enough entertainment for the next twenty-four hours. Hopefully I'll get to play some Boccie ball and/or ping pong while tailgating today. Nick gave me three books on the 'art of table tennis' last night, lol. Made me miss playing it every now and again so I've been considering buying one. With even more motivation knowing that I would have people who would like to play as well.

In other news, I got my TV back the other day. Now all I need is a kitchen table (possibly just a ping pong table with some plywood on top) and a coffee table (which I think will be custom built by a friend of mine) and the house will finally look like we didn't JUST move in. While I was getting the tele' back I spent a brief moment shooting the shit at the apartment despite my stomach's best efforts to turn itself inside out and the jolt of nerves running down my spine. I found out that we believe we are tailgating in the same part of town today as well as sitting merely ten (out of 90) rows away from each other in the same section at the game. My life's dramatic irony never ceases to amaze me. It is moments like this that make me believe it could be worth the documentation, a 'movie moment' as my pseudo cousin would say. Hopefully it will at least be an interesting and/or enjoyable day.

Only working one day this week yet still making enough to survive comfortably. I know that I wanted to cut back on my work hours during school but I think I need to talk to Nick about boosting me up to at least three shifts a week. Too much free time makes me procrastinate more than when I am on a tight deadline to finish. And the busier I stay the less of a bum I feel like and thus less depression sets in on a nightly basis. Ideally I would like to work myself to the point of physical and mental exhaustion all day while leaving myself a couple hours at the end of it to relax in my self medicated state of being. If everything sets up and works out well enough, that schedule could be easier to maintain than it seems. Schoolwork will allow me enough to do to reach mental exhaustion and if I can start getting into a workout routine and/or playing IMs, the physical exhaustion part could follow suit.
