Hi all. Realizing I've been pretty absent since last week. Things are OK and nothing new really going on. Texting with the girl has cooled off quite a bit since the weekend o' love, but we're still talking pretty much every day.
I've been pretty down since the weekend before last, actually. Can't really blame video games but they're certainly part of the picture. Wednesday I didn't even shower, and spent most of Wednesday and Thursday in bed, playing games on the gorgeous, new TV. But it wasn't all that much fun; it was more like a binge.
Anyway, did get out and go for a couple walks over the weekend, and yesterday walked several miles around the downtown LA "arts" district, taking pictures of abandoned warehouses and checking out caf?s in weird little alleys. Then, well, the new Grand Theft Auto game is out so I played that for a bunch. The thing is that the girl is a total gamer - more so than I am - so we played online and talked for a while on the headsets and a couple mutual friends are also online. So it sounds bizarre, but it's actually pretty fun to play online together in this fake-world.
Let's see. Oh, that's right, met with two professors last week and their both very happy with where I'm at school-wise, so even though I've done NOTHING this past week I'm still in OK shape. Need to do some serious writing this week, before San Diego. Then I've also gotten this "part time" job writing application essays for MBA and PhD students that's threatening to become full-time. I already have 5 students assigned to me and they're all in Israel and I need to Skype with them and start working on their applications, and apparently I need to learn a whole bunch about MBA programs so I can recommend schools where they'll fit. Ugh. Well, whatevers.
Not reading, not researching, not writing really at all. But hey, at least not drinking either, right? Hope everyone's doing well! :l
