Sorry bout that horrid pic. I was brushing my teeth and said "picture time!" Eh. Anyway, so here's what's been going on in my neck o' the woods, so to speak.......
I was at my moms house, and she told me Chris, the dude I live with, wants to get a place in town, by himself. So it seemed to me like he was thinking about booting me behind my back. Shouldn't he talk to me about that to my face? And then I had a dream that I HATED him and was cursing him out and calling him a skinny little punk and yadda yadda blah blah.......so I confronted him about it yesterday and he seemed surprised. He told me that would be the end of the year before he could do that, because he has to pay this place off first. So I got all pissed and ready to scrap for nothing. Hm. Maybe I need to think things through before jumping to conclusions eh?
Okay, that girl at work. This morning, I just said to hell with this, and I walked over and straight out said to her "Look, the letters and stuff, have got to stop. No offense or anything, but I don't wanna go out with you. I'm sorry." And she was just like "okay. No problem." And then later she came up and told me thanks for letting her know how I felt and that that was a real manly thing to do. So I thought it was all over and done with, and I felt good about myself for taking care of business. Later she walked up to me and said "I have a question." What the crap is it now!? That's what I was thinking. Then she said "Is there something wrong with me? I just wanna know what the problem is...." WHY must she know why I don't like her? I mean, does she need some sort of confirmation that she's not ugly, or not crazy or whatever? Ugh....I just groaned and grabbed my face and she was like "what? what's the problem?" Then I straight out told her the truth. "I'm just not attracted to you. I'm sorry." That seemed to take care of it. She said okay and walked off. I don't need this kinda stuff. Eh.
Well, that was fun. Let's see if I have anything to tell you about me....hm........I can eat olives with anything. That was my random Jack fact of the day. Oh, and I'm gonna finally this grossness from my face tonight. And it's gonna hurt like a bastard. Later!

upsides: well, the big bonus about it is that it's cheap. i pay $380 for my studio and heat is included. most people i know who have a roommate pay $200-$300 a month.
also, crime IS very low, dpending on which side of the city you live on. i live on the uber-hip eastside and i love it.
and during the summer, there is a festival almost every night all over the city.
it's only a 2 hour drive to chicago or madison.
downsides: the weather is only nice from may-october. the rest of the year it's freezing.
it gets small after a while, you start to know everyone.
jobs don't pay that great usually, depending on what you do.
two words: fat people. wait, three words: fat drunk people.
so there you have it.
You took the high road with the girl at work, I know that must've been hard, but you did do the right "manly" thing. Lots of guys would've slept with her (no matter what she looked like) without a second thought and tossed her aside. So kudos to you there. More proof you're a nice guy. I know that sounds like an insult some days, but eventually nice guys get their due.
