I've had my eye on a girl at school for quite a while; to be accurate, I've wanted to ask her out since I first met her in December. she's probably the cutest girl in the history of time and/or space, as I believe I've posted here and told several of my friends. well, after having casual conversations with her occasionally and mentally beating myself up whenever I would see her in the halls, I finally decided last night that today would be the day I won her approval. so this morning I got up earlier than usual, got my lifting in, ironed one of my best casual shirts, and did the usual shower/dress thing, except I shaved too. I only do that 3 times a week usually, but today I wanted to look my very best, for Kara. I even ditched my normal Fierce cologne for the Dior bottle that I usually only wear for special occasions, and bought a bag of Runts to give to her, because she likes them so much. today I was so excited to see her, and after my lit class I did see her. the only hitch was that she had just finished kissing her boyfriend.

I don't think I need to tell you how that felt. it wasn't a great feeling. also, by the look of her bf I wouldn't have stood a snowball's chance in hell with her anyway, but it still hurt. I honestly don't know why I put myself through it all.

a song on the iPod made me shed tears today. I'm such a chick.

three guesses as to which one it was. (not 'New Deep')

67 degrees and I'm at the workplace. woo!

so I pulled a Pat the other day, and broke my glasses. the problem isn't very severe, as what broke was the spring inside the right bow that keeps it flush against my head, so I was able to remedy it pretty easily. the only problem is, now I'm walking around with Scotch tape on the specs. unattractive... now I need new glasses.

week 4 of the weight training is complete. I've lost some weight, which is awesome, and my arms and chest are firming up as well. double awesome!

the last item for today? watch for a big website development, sometime next week. OUT.

I spend like, half an hour typing a bunch of shit for school braving interruptions and then Word takes a massive dunp, taking everything I've written. Strike one.

in my rage, I throw my keyboard and mouse at my monitor, breaking my spacebar, the little clippy thing and my leftclick button. Strike two.

I leave the compy entirely, go play some MVP on the gamecube and the Royals are destroying me. the Royals!!!! the next logical step, of course, is to throw my gamecube controller at my television, resulting in a broken controller and silver marks on my television screen. Strike three.

Hi, my name is Ehren, and I'm a rageaholic.

while someone else is enjoying my Decemberists ticket, I blog. mostly because blogging is what I do.

yesterday I went to a wedding. most of the time, weddings are held on a Saturday, and I now understand why: the reception barely got going before the lid was put on the par-tay. and while there weren't any females that were interested in talking to me outside of Sara, who is engaged, I still had my fun via mingling and dancing, aided by the several or more drinks I consumed. there are many pictures, but they'll stay safely out of reach of the intraweb.

today I went into the workplace and found out that my company plans to not only eliminate 30 stores but also possibly shutter the entire chain in a liquidation auction. so we'll see how that all works out. all the negative press lately has created somewhat of a ghost town in my store which is sad, because I hate to see a company I've invested so much time in just tank the way it has.

in other loosely-work-related news, I witnessed a truly awesome car fire close to my workplace. 'twas badass, because as I was relaying the scene to someone from my phone, a tire exploded and got the car going even more. I laugh about it, but I'm sure the poor bastard who owns the car ain't laughing.

and as a last tidbit of infotainment tonight, I ordered yet more movies from the Netflix on Friday. and I got them today. big ups to the Netflix Bloomington DC on that one. the only problem? instead of getting 'All I Want' and the first season of 'Punk'd' (you must know why) I got the first season of 'Aquateen Hunger Force', which does NOT get big ups from me, and 'Death to Smoochy'. two titles that were in my queue, but were nowhere near the top. go figure. I guess I'm waiting till at least Tuesday for my Mandy fix.

check out this humorous blogpost. hippies piss me off too.

week 3 of the weight training. my chest no longer hurts the day after, which means I either do more or add more weight. I'm gonna go with the former.

also, my other Pat McGee ticket is available, again. it was a bad idea to buy them so far ahead of time.

yesterday? 76 and sunny. tomorrow? 55 and rainy. bastard spring....
