Okay, that was a high-powered weekend and I think Sunday night my body kicked into a special "recover for school" mode that had me asleep at my computer by about 11. Between HP, Escaflowne, SAMO, Lupin III, and more, I think my body finally spoke up on the whole "you need sleep thing".

Sunday started out with me waking up way too early. I didn't have to be up in SC until about 1 or so, so to pass time and shake off the exhaustion, I settled in for some Morrowind. Then the XBox froze, so I settled in on the Internet. After reaching the end of the Internet, I got a message from Matt, and he invited me to go hook up with him and Janel at Saturn Cafe. With a game plan set, I jumped in the shower, finished some work, and got a half hour late start (oops!), and made my way up to SC. Once there, I met up with Matt and Janel, waited for them to finish their food, and then Matt and I ran to Hollywood to get Short Cuts for his CW club. Along the way, he and I talked about some stuff and it had me silently lost in thought when I stumbled into SAMO. Have you ever noticed that 5 minutes behind quickly becomes 10, then 20, and then before you know it half an hour? (You can guess how late we were...lol) SAMO went well, although I noticed I kept spacing out back into thought, especially during Bubblegum Crisis. Honestly I felt horrible about letting any kind of thoughts run through my head like the ones that did, so I violently shoved them aside and jumped on the faith in others bandwagon. I put all my faith in trust in her. I couldn't even tell you why, except that I believe in her. Later that evening I voiced my concerns I had set aside, simply because I felt it best to tell her what was on my mind earlier.

Begin digression: I like the fact I can bring these sorts of things up, without fear of being burned at the stake. I have been a position before where I was terrified to voice thoughts for fear of endangering things, and that was not cool. Here, though - now, things are different; I can tell her my fears, my worries, and I can tell her I trust and believe in her. I can be myself not just physically, but emotionally. I don't think I've ever been able to do that before. End digression.

So the night ended with Lupin the 3rd, myself getting back to Monterey at a somewhat decent hour, and then passing out at the computer. It's hard to believe that the HP opening was just a part of this last weekend. Now, I must get ready for my 10 am class involving computers, networks, and a bunch of stuff I can't remember. ^^
