shouldn't be on here

So, in theater history, I have a quiz tomorrow, on a play I haven't finished reading yet. So I really shouldn't be on here. But my brain is tired and my ankle hurts, so I'm taking a break I shouldn't be taking, to update here.

I went to Washington DC for the weekend. I had an extraordinary time. If it hadn't happened exactly the way it did, I don't think I would have had as good a time. And I got to eat at an Indian restaurant, which was good, even though I could hear Anissa's voice in my head: "Ahh, my mom could do it better, and make it cheaper..." So that was DC. And I enjoyed the company. I couldn't have asked for better, though I'm not going to let James forget that he could've come too. And should've.

It's the fourth of July, I got to see fireworks and hear Lee Greenwood on the radio, at the same time. So that was an excellent fourth of July. My housemate has a friend over, and she's a little tipsy. Not too much right now to report in terms of new developments.

Except there's something that's been on my mind lately. A couple of people have thought that a friend and I are more than friends, and I am inclined to think that it is only because this friend happens to be of the opposite gender. Its made me think... perhaps in this society, some unspoken law was written that girls and guys can't be good friends. If so, I kind of wish someone told me about this law before. That's not to imply I wouldn't still be friends with him. But sometimes its nice to know beforehand what you are getting yourself into. Now, I'm not quite sure how to reconcile the "discord" if that's what you can call it. Its not exactly discord. But it feels like that sometimes, because in one sense, I care about what my friends think of me. But at the same time, its not going to rule my life.

Anyway, I'm starting to zone out. Which means I'm starting to let my mind wander, which means I'm going to venture into uncharted territory while extremely tired, which is not a safe thing to do. I might get hurt in there. So, I'd better go back to reading. Goodnight.
