It’s Plum!

Wednesday, July 31st, 2002

I spent last night finishing the scripts to make my website be in a MySQL database. They work, and I enjoyed working on the project. I plan to place my images in a database to start image galleries, and hopefully SQL-ify my site skins.

We went to go get books this afternoon. I got all of mine but two, so that’s good. Chris had some issues getting his books. Apparently, people were pointing and laughing at us. At that point Chris walked out, and plans to not shop at the University Book Store again. I’m still not sure how I feel, but I think I’m leaning towards his side here.

Afterward, I went to get my hair cut and highlighted. I like it. I asked for purple, and I got something close. I said that I didn’t want something like bright purple, but more of a plum. It came out mostly plum, which was accurate. I think next time I’m going to go for a purple with more of a blue tint.

I told Vero that I would call her when I got home. I did so, and she had gone over to Ryan’s. I didn’t call right away because I as starved. Now I’m leaning towards calling her cell phone just to let her know that I didn’t forget about her. We’ll see.

Alas, I’m now at home all alone. I’m fairly neutral towards the entire situation. Good? Bad? I don’t know.

Work tomorrow. Eck.

Various Recaps and Feelings

Tuesday, July 30th, 2002

Today I was supposed to get my hair cut and highlighted. Unfortunately, Amanda was busy, so I have to get that some tomorrow. I’m excited.

Beth and I hung out this afternoon. We had a good time. We got her an entertainment center, network router, ethernet cable, and a webcam. Today was a big shopping day in Beth’s world, I’m sure. I know that if it was me, I would consider it so.

Last night I went to group, which was fun. There was mad hanging out afterwards. We went to the mall, to Java Joe’s, and then to Mike’s place. I had a good time.

Still, I can’t help but have this self-conscious “tag along” mentality. It’s just that I’ve been away for so long, things feel a bit odd still. I doubt that people actually think the way that I believe them to, but it still seems like that in my head; and that, my friends, is sad.

Everyone in that group suddenly got LiveJournals, which is cool. I’m sure that they will all find it as threrapeutic as I do.

I’m going book shopping with Veronica tomorrow. I’m excited. It’s too bad that she works an overnight, otherwise there could be mad hanging out. Oh well. It will still be awesome to see her again.
