So I've had to take action as far as the whole MathGirl situation goes. This involved writing her about what exactly my feelings toward her are. (I know - I too feel that writing such things is inappropriate, and they should be done in person and all, but that just wasn't possible.)
In my experience this is never a good idea.
But we pretty much...

Heh, I don't think so.
Ooo, bet you're wonderin' how I knew,
'Bout your plans to make me blue.
With some other guy that you knew before,
Of the two of us guys you know I love you more.
Bleak days, my friends.
Last night I was trying to think of a simple math proof that I've done a million times. I didn't work on it long, but it should...

"Why do I write bad poetry? Because I know that if I try to write bad poetry I can surely succeed. But if I try to write good poetry I might fail."
I wrote that down in my book of clever things I have heard.

My back is killing me! Sitting in a chair all day aggravates it; I've known this for a long time, but there's no helping it. My job requires that I sit in a chair all day.
Stupid office jobs. I need something where I can get up and do stuff and not get bored!
I think I may go to the lake this weekend. I...

do0d stop molesting your computer. That's just sick. Haha, just like you

I need to start reading again. i feel so happy when I read...it brings me away from my own bizarre way of thinking. Whats going on with the Mathgirl now? are you feeling better about all that? Thank you so much for the bday wishes! 
Imagine my surprise this morning when I opened the front page and saw that both new sets were of the brilliant, gorgeous, entirely loveable and extraordinary Sophie!
This is the best day ever!

hello!
it's been a very long time.
i had to read all your recent journal entries in blog style (or however you say it) to catch up on your stuff.
when i was working on my MA at SFSU i almost enrolled in a certificate program for technical writing. there are some very lucrative positions in that. i didn't, but i totally empathize with you about having to edit and basically help rewrite a 500 page Software O&M Manual. sometimes at my current job i have to edit a 100 page document and i think it will nearly kill me with the inanity of it all.
did you like the shot of Cryptonomicon in the video? did you like my helpless attempt at seeming intelligent? pretty funny, eh?
what is one wonderful thing you're looking forward to right now? other than flying to PA?

oh and i meant to say, like a long time ago, but now again:
CONGRATULATIONS on your NEW JOB!!!
that is too excellent! i know cube-life sucks. sincerely, i know it all too well. but it can help you do many things; like travel, afford your own apartment, pay off debts, and somehow afford gasoline!
way to go!!!!

You all know that I really try to put at least one positive thing in each of my journal entries in order to not look like a self-pitying wretch.
But it's difficult today.
With work, and MathGirl, and my friends having kids, it's all just kind of slowly wearing on me. I'm down today.
Not that my friends having kids is a bad thing; I...

I'M A PARTY HO!!!!!!!!!! RAAR RAAR RAAR!
More bad poetry today.
We Who Can't Forget
Could I ever presume
You might ever need me?
I'm not special really.
Yet this is my doom.
But how much I need you!
You make my life better,
Help me see things matter.
Now what am I to do?
You've flown from my embrace
And left me little hope.
I think somehow I'd cope,
But I'd...

I love coming home at 5 in the morning. I used to do that on the weekends in college all the time. I would be drinking wine with my friends or something, and then suddenly we would realize the sky was getting light. I just love night time, and being with people at night, so much more than the day, that when it's a weekend and I have that opportunity, it's hard to let it go.
I was a loser in junior high. I doubt anyone was pining for me then.

Apparently MathGirl broke her arm last week. At lunch I called her to give her a hard time for not writing or calling me for a while, but she was in a meeting so I left a message. Then she left a message telling me she doesn't remember much of last week, since she broke her arm.
I don't know the details. I called and...

Here's some doggerel I spent the morning composing:
There was a time when we knew only joy,
A Time before we ever gave much thought
To your being a girl and I a boy,
When all our hopes and dreams were still unwrought.
Then when we grew up we would always say,
'Soon. When we're done with school; we'll have time then
For the life...

These arms of mine,
They are lonely,
Lonely, and feeling blue.
These arms of mine,
They are yearning,
Yearning from wanting you.
And if you would let them hold you
Oh how grateful I will be.*
These arms of mine,
They are burning
Burning from wanting you.

They are wanting
Wanting to hold you.

Yay! It's Friday! I'd forgotten how great it is when Friday finally arrives. All my days had been blending together; it was all the weekend.
I'm tired. I was up late last night; my sister left for somewhere this morning, and decided last night that she needed to color her hair blue before she left. So I was up until 1 am coloring her hair....
