Yeah, that wasn't really a reply to that post, it was a reply to whatever forgotten thing you said on Twitter. And clearly more about me and my life regrets than that anyway.

If your textbook is teaching city planners that it's a good idea to leave more stuff the hell alone, I am encouraged about the future.

So our band, OTIS, has its first gig on Saturday.  Very short notice, I found out at about 7 tonight.  We've been practicing, off and on, for about 3 years now and it looks like the big night is almost here.  I'm nervous cause I'm pushing the envelope a little bit with this, playing leads and gulp singing.  But what the hell?  We're going to rock our (tiny little) city.  One more thing checked off the bucket list.  If you happen to be within a few hundred miles of Frankfort, KY on Saturday night, stop on in!

Now I must return to frantically memorizing Neil Young lyrics.  Damn his meandering!  Anybody spare some Adderall?

So the gig went really well last night.  First set was a little rough due to nervousness, but we calmed down, smoothed things out and things ended up great.  I got a lot of positive feedback, but it was almost all about my singing instead of my playing, which is weird.  Who knew. 

I also have gained a new appreciation for roadies.

Literally every weekend for the past several months at least one person I know on facebook gets married or engaged.

Today I went to the weekly social at a local bar and got drunk and talked to people and forgot all their names. One particular girl I met made me feel weird feelings.

Ran into this girl today and we said Hi. She commented that she hasn't seen me at all since we met, and asked if I am going to be at the department social tomorrow. Good vibes and smiles.

It was weird. Showed up and did the mutual awkward "pointedly not looking at each other or saying hi" thing. Then 20 minutes in she came and sat at the table I was at, but the opposite corner. Then a minute later we finally said hi. Then I moved over a seat to be opposite her. Then we talked intensely for 2 hours straight, ignoring everyone else, and then she left.

Are you trying to keep it under wraps within the department?

Not that I know of? I think we are both just dweebs. Need to arrange to hang out one on one.

Well, I guess part of it is that, thinking it through more, because the last thing I want is classmates making comments to me about what girl I like. No thanks.

Maybe this is Roast Beefian. "Dan, how DARE you talk to a nice girl? Who do you think you ARE!?"

So maybe that woman has a boyfriend? Saw her walk in with a particular guy today and realized that every time I have ever seen her, they have arrived and left together. Ugh. Psyching myself out about this.

We already scared him away again.

Other guys in my program keep making vague references to the idea that there aren't a lot of cute girls in our program. Which makes me feel like I am going crazy. I think they're almost all cute. And frankly I think of myself as kind of a picky person about appearances, sometimes. But nerdy girls who like cities are totally my thing.

When I want to take a break from schoolwork I am working on Dutch on duolingo. In poking around elsewhere on the internet I have learned two words that I love, and that indicate that the Dutch care about what I care about. Gezellig-- cozy/intimate/fun combination adjective that means, like, "meaningful and emotionally/physically close enjoyment with loved ones." And the adjective "Jarig," which means "having a birthday today."

Hey inev I know what you're talking about. My current work-group is constantly bitching about the lack of tang on our floor. I don't know what they're talking about. The confluence of nerdy girls who intuitively understand my line of work and handle sarcasm at a functional level is a recipe for a sexual harassment lawsuit.

Why is it that people who like to complain about the appearance of girls almost always share the same conception of the feminine ideal?

And why does that feminine ideal always involve pro-wrap and yoga #####?
