I'm BAAAAAAAACCCCCKKKKKKK..
Mar. 27th, 2002 07:47 pmOkay kats and kiddies, what's been up with the Techie? Where's he been for so long?
Well.. here's the scoop. @Home played hell with my net connection, and I've been 'net-less for a while. My local cable company are furkin' morons, and their tech support hours suck, so it took forever to get it worked out. I'd been driving my cop car for a few months because my van started leaking oil. Turns out it was a leaking front crank seal. So between cable and my van, I spent around $500 of my tax refund just getting back to "status quo."
However, I finally picked up a PS2 (Yay me!) and although I'm too poor to afford many games, I found Silent HIll 2 used for $20 at my local Hollywood Video and am amusing myself with that.
Katherine came and visited from Ottawa, and it was a total disaster. Even before she came to visit, she'd gotten all clingy and codependent and her personality just started to rub me the wrong way. But I thought I'd see if it was just the long distance, or her, and well, the week we spent together was hell. She wouldn't leave me alone, and all I could think about was how soon I could get rid of her. I know that sounds like a mean thing to say, but it's the truth. Plus I realized I was interested in other people, and that other people were interested in me.
So right now I'm seeing a friend of mine from the LARP. I never thought it would happen, because all the girls at LARP that I liked were taken. Never figured that the one I wanted would break up with her b/f and go out with me because she'd been attracted to me before they'd ever dated. Too bad the melodrama associated with dating in social circles sucks.
Right now, my social hobbies are annoying the hell out of me. The SCA group I'm in has divided itself, and is in the process of flushing itself down the toilet because the big and powerful household that's the main portion of the group has an ego problem, and the LARP I'm in seems to have similar problems, except for the fact that none of them seem to understand anything legal or business-like.
*le sigh*
Ironically, though, the rest of my life is going pretty good.. I've got my cable modem back, my van back, my house is clean, I've got a local girlfriend who's not a psycho (there's a first for me) and my close friends are like family. If I could just extricate myself from the melodrama from the idiots in my life, all would be perfect!
Oh well. :)
