i had dinner with my ex-boyfriend last night @ mirai sushi. he said that he ate so much and was so full that he was going to "shit sushi". haha.

its kind of weird and unsettling to have dinner with someone who i once used to admire and adore. and now i just look at him and think nothing. don't get me wrong, i had a terrific time. we laughed about things that i havent laughed about in a while and he said a joke or two that he hasn't said in a while either. it was good to laugh and feel good again. as he said "im glad we could hang out again".

it was nice.
nothing more, nothing less.

my roommate drove me to work this morning and asked me how it was. i was going to keep everything inside cause ive just been relying on myself nowadays. but i spilled everything -- even my one and only fear. i like hanging out with my ex-boyfriend -- even if its only for birthday dinners or special occasions or even a short IM conversation. but im so scared that once he starts dating and eventually marries his true love, that he will not want to hang out with me ever again. i guess this is something that im going to have to accept sooner rather than later.

today is another day. last night is just another memory.

Fact or Crap?
Draining toilet water swirls in the opposite direction in the Southern Hemisphere than in the Northern Hemisphere.

Crap. There is something called the Coriolis force, which, in short, is what happens when air flows from high to low pressure under the earth’s rotation. This deflects wind to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere. The effect is noticeable, however, only for large-scale motions, such as weather conditions.

I went shopping last night at American Apparel over in Wicker Park and -- let me tell you -- I loooooove the store. You'll see why I like the tops so much.
no patterns
not trendy
plain
simple
classic
...and my friend Mr. I-leave-a-comment-about-how-the-Valentine's-Day-store-called-and-I-like-boys-my-name-is-Andrew works there too.

So...support these Made In The U.S.A. products.

oh God and for all that is good in this world: valentine's day is down the alley and around the corner and pass the liquor store. kill me now. i've hated this hallmark holiday since last year. i should just call in "sick" that day so i wont have to witness all the deliveries of floral arrangements and pink/red sweaters that will be worn in the office.

when will all this madness end?

a really good friend of mine called me last night.

you have those friends that you talk to everyday and then you have those friends that you talk to every couple of months. i'm not saying that i cherish one type of friendship over the other.

he's out in nyc living his life, meeting men :) , exploring museums, and just living. i'm so jealous of him cause i wish i could stray away from the path that i'm on and do something wild and out of the ordinary, but i can't. i'm the girl who has her life planned out and who will always (try to) do the right thing. oh well. enough about me and more about him. i got to know him my senior year in college. i was really close to him and his cousin. to see how these two boys have grown since i met them in school -- its like wow-nang-wow. they evolved from being boys to grown men and im proud of them. proud like a how an older sister type of proud. since i was a tiny tot, i always wishes and constantly asked my parents why i don't have any younger sisters or brothers. if i had to choose now, i'd wish for younger brothers. when i got off the phone with andrew, i told him to take care and he goes, "talk to you later...FOB". all i could do was laugh. i guess you just had to know my relationship with him and darrell to understand. anywho...i'll talk to him again in a couple months.

last week at hup 3-hr, another friend reminded me that at my PSA Senior Dinner, i said something like how its amazing who you become friends with.

who would've thunk?
