Today I need to do some set reading, and tidy my clothes away, and wash some of my dishes. Everyone in my house seems to have been abducted. Two are at away at home, and the rest are either hiding or have disappeared somewhere.
Me and one of my housemates are having this silent war. His laptop is old and doesn't have a wireless connection built in, so he plugs his computer directly into the router so he can connect. But he downloads alot of film and tv (all of which is really terrible stuff like two and a half men, and action movies, so it isn't even like I enjoy the end product), so it uses up sooo much of the bandwidth. So often if I want to do something that requires fast internet (not even fast, just not stoneaged slow) I will often unplug the cable from the router (it's right outside my door in the hallway) and then the internet will be instantly, magically inproved. It's so annoying that our internet is actually quite fast, but his stupid downloads mess with it so much. Anyway, so once I've unplugged it, he usually comes out and plugs it in again. The trick is to unplug it, but not let it drop to the floor. It has to look like it's plugged in, but not establish a connection. Otherwise he realises faster.
Neither of us have ever spoken about this war that we are waging, which I think is pretty funny. I am not going to let him win though. It's not fair.
Yesterday I went to the doctor (again). The first time I went, a few months ago, it snowed, and was beautiful. It wasn't quite as terrifying this time, because this isn't my doctor at home, so I'd never met him before. But it still involved telling him all the stupid stuff that's happened, and what I think and do and stuff. And it still concluded with the same thing: you're depressed, you need counselling.
Which is something I really don't need to hear, really. This guy seemed better about it though. He was more sort of... used to dealing with it maybe. Asked more questions and seemed to know more what he was on about. He said if I don't call the student counsellors on Monday he'll know, because he's going to check. Which is a little worrying, perhaps. But it's nice that he'd take the time, I suppose.
On another note, in response to disneykid1's post about his best friend application - I want to be your best friend! But I don't live in Philadelphia :( Actually I'm pretty glad I don't because it sounds scary, but I would very much like to be friends with you (like the rest of youtube...)
I suppose I'l post after Monday about how the weekend has been, and what happened with the counselling appointment. Hmmmm. Lots to do and think about..
