Haven't Posted in While, Here's Some Melodrama!

It's not a huge deal, but I'm just mad at someone for a stupid reason. Long story short, I was supposed to meet my friend at a sandwich shop today at 1 but I was running late so they told me to just not come and left.

Yeah, it's wrong that I was late.

But I don't know.. I feel like telling me to just stay home when I'm about to walk out the door is a little much. I guess punctuality just isn't nearly as important to me as it is to my friend.

And the fact that she was there kind of caught me off guard. I was expecting an update saying she was on her way, not a text saying she was there. A miscommunication that's no one's fault.

I also didn't even know that she was getting her own ride there, I thought I was supposed to be picking her up. She didn't tell me she was going there independent of me. Another miscommunication.

She was mad that I was running late and I "didn't tell her", but it's not as though I did it intentionally. I fell asleep waiting for her to be done with her earlier engagement (I've been struggling a lot with energy levels lately, often sleeping until two or three in the afternoon every day no matter what time I go to bed). I texted her when I woke up and realized it was 1:15.

Also, she wanted to hang out with me until 5 but I told her that I needed to be somewhere at 3:30. She was a little disappointed/annoyed at that? I'm sorry I can't spend four hours with you to get lunch.

All in all, I understand why she's mad and it's a totally valid reason. But I feel like she completely over reacted. The lunch place is nine minutes away, and I was going to head out the door. You don't need to get angry and tell me to just stay home then. I don't feel like that's an appropriate way to deal with a friend lunch. Especially since she asked me to hang out last minute because someone ELSE canceled on her. So here I am re-arranging my schedule just to be second choice and get canceled on anyway. And I passed up on going out to brunch with my family for this.

I still shouldn't have been late, but now I have resentment towards my friend for how she responded to the situation.

Adventures of an eBay Tycoon

Hi, all!

So I just recently got a decent sum of money from my grandparents for graduation. Instead of just spending it on stuff I wanted, I decided to start a business. So I'm now in the business of buying used/broken electronics and re-selling them on eBay. And man, business is BOOMING. I was worried that no one would call, but I have more offers than I really know what to do with.

I'm going to cap my spending at $300 this week and see what happens with trying to sell them and stuff. Some things should be easier than others to make a profit off of..

So yeah. That's that.

Making Friends on the Internet

Okay, so a little while ago I did a post about how I didn't know how to talk to people on Omegle and how my one friend meets a lot of cool people on there and I wanted to do that too and blah, blah, blah. Yeah, people on Omegle are creepy. For the most part. I've had a lot better luck typing "Reddit" into the interests thing.

But that got me thinking, if I'm meeting all these cool people on Omegle from Reddit... I'm sure there's lots of cool people ON Reddit too.

So I've recently taken up to shooting a PM to people I stumble upon that I find interesting. I actually do this as opposed to replying as a public comment most times. If I reply to their comment I find that I don't really have anything to message them about later (duh, because I wind up using that conversation thread), and I feel awkward PMing them after the fact saying "Wow I think you're really cool, we should be friends!". I find that it works better for me to PM them, have whatever conversation I was going to have, and then suggest we become Facebook friends or something of the sort.

That method has been working out pretty well for me thus far =]

And Again.. WHAT THE FUCK, LAW & ORDER?

Some 15 year old girl from a rich family gets killed by her sister, and when the older sister confesses the mother is like "Ohhh, it's okay Mercedes!" Like what the hell? If my mom was sitting with me and I was like "I murdered my sister" she'd be like "Ew, WTF get away from me" or SOMETHING. Okay, maybe she'd be in shock and just not have a reaction. But.. Just.. Not THAT reaction.

And it doesn't help that the entire reason the 20-something year old girl killed her sister is that she had sex with her fiance' (who's also from a wealthy family).

Cool, thanks for my morning dose of rape, Law & Order. Thanks.

What the Hell, Law & Order?

It's almost six in the morning here, and we have Dish network so it's infomercials galore right now. Sidenote, never, EVER get Dish. It's like the worst provider ever. Most channels switch to infomercials after midnight. The remaining channels don't really broadcast much longer, most succumbing to infomercials by 2am. Which really kind of super sucks for insomniacs...

Anyway. There's nothing to watch here right now, so I'm stuck watching Law & order and BOY is it dumb.

Apparently there's some lady whose.. Son killed two people, is essentially certifiably crazy, and has been deemed "genetically criminal"? And then the son's mother was testifying at his trial and she's pregnant and the lawyer questioning her basically tells her that her next baby is probably "genetically criminal" too (like what the fuck, is that actually a thing?) and she should abort it.

Wuttttt?

Da fuq is that shit? This show is bad. And they should feel bad.
