apparently it's national "let stupid boys screw up your schedule" day and no one warned us...

just a little grumpy if the title doesn't give it away.

ben and i agreed on monday that we'd see "the weather man" this afternoon and get dinner afterwards. when we talked, we agreed on heading for the first movie possible after 2 or 3. so even planning on the 4pm one was good by me. when ben called me this afternoon around 2 he decided that the earliest he'd show up at my house ready to go was 6pm at the earliest, maybe 8pm instead. without warning then, my afternoon to fill went from an hour or two to about 5-6 hours. this is maybe a little stupid to be irritated about, but really, i have a hard time concentrating on friday afternoons since the crazy week is about at its end. i generally count on something social to do with someone or another in the afternoon and then work at night... so this left me with more hours than expected to fill with no energy to do much of anything.

colleen has a similar story. she was supposed to go to the gym with scott at 3, as they usually do, but when she called him when she got to the rec center, he said he wasn't coming and he didn't bother to call her and warn her b/c he figured she'd be on campus anyhow already and it wouldn't matter (bad assumption. colleen had nothing to do out of the house today besides that).

so yeah, stupid boys who can't keep schedules... oi... (it should be noted that i call ben, scott, and eric "stupid boys" all the time, and they call me a "stupid girl" too... it's not said in quite the same level of mean connotation as you might imagine)

anyhow, whenever ben actually shows up, we're going to see the weather man... this was originally supposed to come out in april, and ever since i first saw a preview for it a year ago, it's been on the top of my "must see" list. it came out today, and i'm looking forward to it. i hope it really is what the previews and reviews i've seen make it out to be or better. review later.

at least, while i wait for ben to show up, the new issue of mental floss finally came in the mail today. i've been waiting for a month for it since i finished the last issue. their magazine staff truly are my heroes.

later dudes.
