fuck you, insomnia

can't sleep. as usual, much on my mind. let me share:

pretty good weekend. snowed all day friday, so my trek to/from the gym was more fun than usual. then jonas called to invite me out drinking. yes, please! to CM's with jonas, sierra, sma, and sloppy. had a delicious turkey burger, and they have the best salads: nice field greens with some sort of creamy yet vinegary dressing. yum yum yum.

saturday: slept in 'til 10:30 without feeling guilty. to lab! where i worked for a solid 6 hours. enrique was there; said the modeling work i was doing could be a chapter in my thesis. cool!

then: prep for the st. patty's day party i agreed to host not 24 hours before. first step of prep: lay on couch and watch basketball. then dinner, shower, a modicum of cleaning up, and stashing the valuables.

first guest arrived 9:15. a well-attended although not crazy event. i discovered that i am comparatively good at car bombs -- i threatened masculinity. some beer pongs, kings. i got drunk enough to have fun, not so drunk i passed out, puked, or hooked up with someone i didn't want to (although not for lack of trying on some guy's part). go me!

sunday AM: quick tidying of the empty beer cans, then off to The Pantry for breakfast, where i had eggs florentine -- my new favorite dish there. eggs, creamy sauce, enough green stuff that i feel somewhat healthy, comes with: homefries (sooooo greasy and sooooo good) and fruit! heaven on a plate after a night of drinking.

then a heavy dose of TV-watching and sitting on the couch with shannon before winter league. got a donut and coffee on the way. tasty, but not the best for playing on. in fact, did not play well. numerous throw-aways, and at least one catch i should have caught. oh well. we still won. more than the wisconsin men's basketball team can say.

sunday night: ate and ate and ate some more. i get really hungry when i'm hung over for some reason. weird. along with this eating, i did more sitting and watching TV. a stupid law and order marathon was on bravo. couldn't tear myself away, especially since there is barely 2 seconds of credits at the end before they begin the next episode, and you're hooked into watching another hour to figure out whodunit.

my teeth hurt. i don't know why. it's sort of like all of them, so i don't think it's a cavity. it's one of those things i hope will just go away but hasn't.

car is still in the shop. took it in wednesday because it was smelling like gas in the interior. intuition says this is bad, and turns out, intuition is right this time. of course, todd siad he'd call once he'd taken a look at it, but by friday at 5 i still hadn't heard anything. oh well, didn't really need a car this weekend anyway. i just hope it's not something expensive.

trip to DC coming together. bought a ticket back. will stay with shannon at her parent's sunday night. still trying to get in touch with dianne. also need to touch base with hammer. can't bring myself to buy plane ticket to fly down wednesday. i should just do it. gawd.

yeah, my life isn't terribly exciting right now. that's OK. couple a beers on the weekend with friends and a little ultimate here and there is all i need to be happy :)
