Srsly u guise. Srsly.

I'm starting to realize that no matter where you are or what you're doing in life, you will come into contact with people who don't know how to deal with others, get problems solved and have a better life because of it.

So one of my chick friends for some reason, seemingly all of the sudden has this issue with one of my guy friends. Completely out of the blue, in my eyes. On Friday she said she wouldn't come to brunch with us because she didn't want to be around him. Note: I'd never heard her voice any issue with him until then, and we've all known each other for 2 years now. Later on she texted me saying that she would be at brunch because she didn't want her feelings to interfere with her friendship with the rest of us. But at this point I'm still like, WTF.

Yesterday I asked her to go into more detail about her problems with this guy. She said that she didn't like the way he "looks through you" while talking, like "he's better than you." This just made me even more confused, as in my opinion this is far from the truth. Dude also had a bad summer, and even if he did that shit before, he sure as hell isn't doing it anymore.

And this morning I was talking to him, and he mentioned that he saw her in the dining hall one day and she tried to avoid eye contact with him. He said, "I don't understand, it's not like I did anything to her, did I?" And from what she tells me, I don't think he did anything but be himself.

So I'm sitting here just shaking my head. I mean, I'm good friends with this girl and I know she had a tough time last year with a half-psychotic roommate, but why is she all of the sudden offended with this guy, whom I don't think she's even talked to since we got back?

To further the weirdness of it all, this girl continues to avoid my other guy friend, who I'll call B for ease. Last year and the year before she had a crush on him, but then hastily deleted him from her Facebook for some dumb reason (I know I shouldn't, but I still LOL to myself about the absurdity of this). Now she feels bad about it and thinks things are awkward between them, though I don't think they are. I think she's seeing things that aren't there. I also think she's jealous because B and I are quite close, so close in fact that multiple people thought we were dating, but we are not. Our close relationship probably gives her more stress, but I try to include her whenever we hang out. Then if we do hang out she claims it's "too awkward" though I doubt B has even realized the whole Facebook shit. So I mean, what am I supposed to do, stop being friends with B? I've told her multiple times just to add him back with a message like "OOPS LOL WRONG DELETION LOLOLOLOLOL" or something, and B won't know the difference because he's too concerned about XBox and whatnot. BUT NO. I guess that would be entirely too easy and much less fun than worrying about it.

Last year we all got kind of screwed up with a big breakup, with Crazy Psychotic Room Mate wanting everyone to choose sides. This girl claims she doesn't want that to happen, and instead is just isolating herself from the rest of us because she doesn't want to face her own issues. I guess I don't understand this, because I'm one to find solutions to problems before they escalate or I freak about about them, like this girl. Seriously, I think the only reason I see this girl as often as I do is because I call her multiple times in a day to get her out of her room. And I can't keep doing that shit, my AT&T plan is not fit to handle that. So as much as I hate to say it, I may end up having to cut this girl off too. I can't help someone who doesn't want to help herself.

TL;DR Crazy chick is pushing away everyone that likes her for stupid reasons.

Back at UMW.

And the place still fucking sucks. Seriously. The wonderful idiots at my college thought that, instead of using $5 million that was apparently just lying around for something that would actually help the university, its shittastic internet and barely edible food service, it buys a villa in Italy. SERIOUSLY, WHAT THE FUCK AM I PAYING FOR?! Clearly it's not for anything that's going to make my college experience better. Goddamn.

Regardless, my dorm and my room mate are awesome. Central air conditioning FTW. Plus my building is 100 years old. Living history, bitches. And my room is pretty big with lovely high ceilings.

So now I'm watching the Democratic convention, listening to Janis Joplin and procrastinating doing work (already, LOL). Basically I'm just waiting for Obama to speak, since I've missed every other part of the convention due to work. Might as well watch the last bit of it.

That's pretty much it. I'm too tired to write anything fascinating. LOL.

Bigfoot and other bullshit.

Bigfoot found?

LOL DOUBTFUL. From the Youtube videos of the press conference I've seen, they have some grainy images of something that looks like a Halloween costume. OH WOW! If these people had really found something, you'd think they'd take many more pictures and make sure they were of higher quality. Then again, these dudes seem to be some grade-A hicks, so who knows. And I could be wrong, it really could be bigfoot, and I'll own up to my mistake. But seriously, after all I've been through and seen of people through my worst of times, I've become ridiculously pessimistic and bitchy. So no bigfoot.

So this past weekend was my family reunion, mother's side. It was fun. I babysat infants and tiny dogs. LOL. I also had to watch my grandmother, who has Alzheimer's and can't be left alone anymore. It's so weird to see someone who was once so full of life and energy and love just sit around like an empty shell. My other grandmother had Alzheimer's as well before she died a few years back, and it's not as hard to say goodbye when they die as it normally is. The way I see it, with this disease, you're dead long before your heart stops beating. It sucks.

Work has been, well, busy. Luckily I get to stop before I go back, but my last day of work is my fucking birthday! WAT. And I don't feel like trying to get someone to switch shifts with me, so whatevs. It'll be my last day, so it won't be that bad. Next Sunday I get to go back to school, which I'm quite ecstatic for. My hometown sucks, and brings back memories I'd rather not remember. Which is why I'm moving to Boston when I get out of school. Just like the Augustana song.

I'm going to finish my knitting. I've got the back piece of my sweater done (FINALLY). Pictures soon. Right now I'm working on the left front piece which hopefully won't take too much longer. It's already going faster than the back. Thank God.

Later.
