Save tonight, and fight the break of dawn

I knew it. I hate being right all the time, of being able to decipher things and understand how systems work. It's a gift at times, and something I wouldn't give up, because it's part of who I am, but that doesn't mean that it's always a good thing, nor does it always lead to favorable results.

Additionally, I'd like to reaffirm my belief in the power of knowledge. Knowledge is always better than ignorance.

Those things aside...

Went to a Sonic party last night, lots of old faces there (as you can see in the pictures) - Devon, Leslie, Marny, Leah, etc. I didn't stay very long, though - my SAD (I'm not entirely sure that's what I have, but the description fits, so I'm going to call it that, for lack of a better thing to say, and out of a desire to avoid having to repeat myself all the time) was kicking in really bad. That, and I really hate crying in front of people. I almost didn't even stay long enough to see Leslie, but Kristin managed to convince me to stay at least that long. After that, I really didn't want to be alone, so I headed up to Austin to crash with Rose. She told me that when my eyes are all bloodshot from crying, they're a really pretty shade of blue; sparkly, even. I was going to help her move in the morning anyway, so it worked out well. We got a load of stuff down here and unloaded into her room (requiring no fewer than 16 trips up her stairs on my part), and her storage unit taken care of, so I'll be heading back there tonight after work, and we'll move a load or two of stuff, which should finish getting her out of the apartment. She's not terribly happy about moving back in with her parents, but it won't be for *that* long, just while she gets her life back together.

It was nice seeing Katie again; haven't seen her for a couple of months. Turns out not only do we have the exact same phone, but we also use the exact same ringtone, and even the exact same background picture. Go us. It was... kinda weird.

Forgot about the work meeting this morning; they called while I was up in Austin. Talked to Adam briefly. Dave can kiss my ass.

So, things are... things, I guess. Not sure where to go from here.
