comfort of papa john's crust dunked/saturated in garlic butter

WARNING: BAD DAY: LOTS OF WHINING AHEAD...

so it was a long day today, class dragged forever. lab prof was late. i was stuck at a the lab bench with a girl i don't really like (party going, flirty, brag about being drunk all weekend and not studying, not real bright, and worst of all: a "know it all" that doesn't.... compound that with looking at various distances through a +5.00sph, -5.00sph, -5.00cyl, and a 5D prism while sitting next to her for two hours, you can see why i'd be in "a mood." just wait... get's better.

leaving school, decide to go to the bank. which is only a few blocks from school, but since it is difficult to make a left turn, had to drive nearly a mile out of the way to get there and also, to get back. decided to drive to west memphis, AR because they have cheaper gas... it's only a couple miles, besides, i wouldn't stop anywhere near here to get gas anyway... as we are getting near the river, the heavens OPEN UP and it starts POURING rain. stuck behind a semi. grrr. can't find the walmart and nearby kroger gas with 3cents/gal off... figure that if i keep driving around looking, i'll end up having to put in that much more gas so that the 3 cents don't much matter... after i fill up, my car sounds lethargic and starts... leave west memphis to get back on the interstate and the heavens cut loose again... great. get home. sunshine. i open the hood to check the date on the battery... covered with a black thingy. came to the conclusing that i hate memphis... except for school and my apartment and little community surrounding it. called dad. best advice: replace it... where? no idea... on a list of things to do. then i drove my roommate to the airport so she can go back home (omaha) and to the husker game tomorrow with her boyfriend. i agreed before i knew it was going to be during rush hour. grrrr.... slightly jealous that she gets to go home.

now i'm home. and ate leftover pizza- saying to h-e-double-hockey sticks with being healthy and soaked the crust in the garlic butter sauce. now, i almost feel better. i think i'm going to stretch out, and get out the books so that i can play sand vb tomorrow... hopefully the sun'll come out and tomorrow i'll blog about how i was overly dramatic today and it's not as bad as i made it seem.
