My jaw is dropping in two completely different directions at the same time, if that's possible. I'm zigging and zagging, winning the race in last place, shaving a Mexican hairless.
No, but really, this is going somewhere. I'll start with the negative. What the hell is up with my landlord right now. I realize it's not terribly cold out right now and so I shouldn't be bitching too much, but I asked him over the weekend to come over and put some more water in our heating system - which currently heats our entire home save my bedroom. He said he would come over and do it ASAP. I mean all he has to do is go in the basement, open a little valve for a few seconds, then leave. That's it. Of course it might be difficult, because he mentioned he might have lost his key to the basement. Wonderful. If it were up to me I'd be down there with a lockpick and a funny hat and/or ski mask right now.
On the positive end of things, do you ever just take a step back and go "is that really me?". If you would have told me a few years ago that I would have an advanced degree in Electrical Engineering, specifically in building lasers and optical communications I would never have believed it. On top of that, I'm a professor at age 24. It really hit me the other day when I was in a meeting at a company we're trying to get a project hammered out with (read: get money from) and I basically had answers for everyone in the room. When you start running a conversation in a room of what are supposed to be intellectual superiors and well respected members in their field...I don't even know what to say other than it's a weird feeling. The good weird.
So here I am contemplating a lot of things, life in general, the real reason behind why I'll most likely piss the rest of the night away and just stay up through work tomorrow among other things. If you're still awake for some reason and reading this, bother me - I've got nothing else going on.
