sleepyLater that afternoon, after playing with Skype's cool new internet telephone thingy and failing miserably, I decided upon going to the union to get a haircut. The haircut went well and though I'm itchy, I feel lots lighter. At the very end of the cut though we heard sirens, something I'm not used to hearing in our student union. The short story is that we were forced to evacuate, and spent 20 or 30 minutes outside for no reason than a failed steam valve. I did enjoy talking to some of the random union employees including my barber. We all passed the time well, but I unlike them, wasn't losing money. It all turned out well, and the union continued ticking away, sirens off but strobe lights still flashing, and no one got overly annoyed.
The other officer I met tonight at dinner. He wanted to know how my leg was and I couldn't figure out why he was asking me and then it all came back. He was the first on the scene that winter day last semester when I fell. I don't know if the experience was a memorable one but he seemed to recall details like it were yesterday. He was glad to see me up and around, and we had other things to talk about as he too lived in Arizona for a while. In short, I really had a great time talking to people today, I'm blessed with a daring sense of adventure with people, and though sometimes I clam up and enjoy my loneliness, other times I strike out and meet the masses.
I just got done doing my show tonight. We have our network back, yay, so didn't have any problems doing it, but though I had listeners, I didn't have a huge number. I did have conversation from some cool friends of mine so that made my time all worth it.
Finally, I too called the Democratic Party here as
controlg did. I hope to be getting a call back from the volunteer coordinator up here in Fayetteville and after that, starting to sell the Democratic tilt on things to the people of northwest Arkansas. It whould be an interesting experience and will only add to the interesting repertoir I'm starting to amass of things I've done.Sleep's starting to overcome me for some odd reason. You'd think I'd have more energy being that I spent most of the day either talking to people or sitting around, but I don't. Sorry for the pointlessness of the entry, not all live journal entries need to have a point do they :). Oh yeah, my sister's wedding shower is tonight. I wish I could be there, but I *really* want to get this statics done, and we are so so close :))). I'm with them in spirit, and am thinking of them at their big Italian party :). And I'm about to make a date with my bed, may I sleep long and hard and dream about happy things.
