09/22/02 11:26 PM: Let Me Count The Ways…
Let me count the ways this weekend sucked. You’ve allready read about my fascinating Friday. Saturday was the Homecoming Dance. One would think that an event like this would be fun. But when one is chasing his drunk girlfriend around the dance floor for the off chance that he could actually dance with her, it becomes not fun quickly. Especially when she ditches you to go to a party after the dance. How cool is that? So after the dance I tried to get trashed. Unfortunately, there wasn’t enough alcohol to get to that state, so I got to spend the rest of my night watching the other drunks and making sure that they didn’t do anything too stupid.
Sunday started at 12 with the Bears game and a crappy breakfast. When I left the dining hall, they were up 20-0. They managed to blow that lead and lose the game, which was accompanied by a large string of epithets from me. To make matters worse, about an hour after the game, my girlfriend of 5 days and I broke up. I didn’t think that it would make me this mad, because I didn’t invest much into the relationship, and I was still mad at her about the night before. I went to the 10 pm candlelit mass thinking that God would clear my mind. Instead, I sat there brooding, until a blind rage took over my whole heart and mind. I needed some sort of outlet for my madness, but my usual ways of dealing with it aren’t appropriate here. I couldn’t go out for a drive, or play my pissed off music as loud as I could. I had others to be considerate of. It just made me even more pissed off at the world.
I just went for a walk with a friend and just vented about the whole weekend, and how much it sucked. I guess it helped. I got most of it out, though it was a shorter walk that I wanted or needed. Tomorrow I get to wake up to a test at 8:30 that I can’t BS my way through, I have to do laundry sometime during the day, something which hasn’t gone without a hitch yet here, and I also have to see my nextdoor neighbor move out to go to the Marines. Hes a good kid, and I wish I could have gotten to know him better, and I will miss him. I think I’m going to go to sleep now before anything else happens. Sorry if this post was a real downer, but to be honest, this weekend sucked ass.
