Still settling into my new state of residence. Went to my first day back at work and signed my contract. Off tomorrow (lol) and then I start my first real day on Wednesday.

My roommate is a mild FF so far.

My wisdom tooth op is to take place tomorrow morning.

While I'm eager to have it done, I'm also dreading having to forgo tobacco, coffee and tea during recovery.

Be prepared for the most grueling 48 hours of the first quarter of your life

Mine was actually completely painless following the op.  Good surgeon, I guess

I think someone might've hit on me. Or he's just being nice. In any case, it's a positive sign for my currently nonexistant university social life. And also a positive sign for my schoolmate, with whom I made a wager for a pizza that I won't get any friends in uni until November.

BREAKING: He's gay. YAY?

I'm feeling more attracted to this guy with every passing day. I sense some potential here.

I just asked out the cute girl at the liquor store. She kinda waffled in answering. Turns out she's thirty. Now I kinda want her more.

What do you mean "waffled"?

[LLR]

I have suddenly started habitually referring to almost everyone as "sir" and I have no idea why or how to stop... I worry myself sometimes

I'm getting more and more disillusioned with some in my party because they say the right thing but focus on all the wrong issues once we should be in power.  The flurry of bills that happened within days after Republicans got full control of Kentucky should have happened at the federal level by now, and the fact it hasn't is inexcusable.  How many people are actually willing to stand up for true conservatism- rather than populism, nationalism, libertarianism, or any other corrupting ideology?

The supposed true conservatives aren't true conservatives, I learned that earlier this year. To actually drain the swamp, we need to drain out the entirety of the establishment especially those like Ryan and McConnell.

What do you mean "waffled"?

In the sense that she seemed undecided for a minute, before declining my invitation and citing her age.

I think it was more shock at being asked out by a pasty Hitler Youth at her workplace more than indecision.

Very excited that I had the privilege of meeting Alec Ross today!

I've been having heartburn nightly at this rate. I hope I don't have an ulcer or something stupid.

When I left high school for college, Obama was running for reelection. I've had a lot of misadventures in college - I've always been a commuter student, I suffered from clinical depression from the beginning that was unmedicated for 2.5 years. When I went to an LGBT social club, I just sat through people presenting slideshows on how there are 30 genders or whatever, my strongest emotion being intimidated at the man talking about how he secretly had HIV and if anyone told anyone bad things would happen. The overenthusiastic moderator also threatened violence against anyone who would cause trouble for the LGBT community. I didn't make a single friend there. At the other social club, a generic meet new people club, I met one guy who aspired to work as part of a kitchen staff on a cruise ship. I paid way too much money to try his nachos made at a on-campus restaurant in the seediest dorm on campus. He either didn't do them well or didn't have good ingredients to work with. He left for culinary school and I never saw him again.

At one point in college I was taking some electives to "find myself" (I know now this was dumb) and I took a class on Biomaterials. It was a senior level class that I knew pretty quickly I would never have a chance at passing, but I wasn't able to drop it because I thought that if I dropped the class I would lose all fiscal aid. The college advisors implied this would happen. Nobody really gave me any advice either way. The professor barely spoke English - she saw me for who I was, a lost underclassmen who wasn't worth wasting time even acknowledging, and dutifully failed me as part of her paperwork.

By the last semester at university, which of course is not the college I go to now, my depression was so bad I was completely set up to fail. I tried a last ditch effort to make a friend at college, a transgender girl I met on the internet. We talked a bit then left. I tried to arrange another hangout, but she wasn't interested. Fair enough.

My weirdest story came from this doomed semester. One gray day, I decided that because we have no money and my grades weren't great I needed to limit my diet. So I walked several blocs through the dingy road leading into Akron's east side at went to the local grocery to buy apple sauce. I bought a big bottle of apple sauce, which I decided was the only food I needed. It was the holiest of holy foods.

Fair enough. No, I have not yet called her "sir." Hopefully it'll stop entirely.

I think my song and dance number impressed her at least.
