I can’t even put into words how good it feels to be home on a Friday. Home. Alone. Spoke to most of my favorite people today. Couldn’t be a better feeling. Aside from that, I worked out twice. Again, something that never happens. Well, not never, but not nearly as often as it should. I took my iPod down to the trusty old apartment complex gym. It felt fantastic. I was only there a half hour. But only because it was late and I don’t like being in places like that alone at night. But I also don’t like being there when there are other people there. So…that settles it. I need a personal gym. (this will be my excuse for not going from now on…take note.)

Really though, after unintentionally breaking plans tonight, I feel better than I think I would have if I’d kept them. Tomorrow is going to be rough. It will be filled with bachelorette festivities but hopefully a trip to the mall as well. I use the word “hopefully” loosely, because I know me. And I know that, as soon as I get there, I will want to buy one of every pair of shoes that I see and it will make me want to cry that I can’t. I just need to return a hideous shirt. I need it out of my possession, STAT. Also, I need my money back so that I will be able to drink enough that I am numb to the above festivities.

I hate to sound horrible. But I really just don’t want to go to this thing. Maybe because it will inevitably lead us to a place that I don’t want to be. Maybe because I am scarred from past weddings and pre-wedding activities. No one likes this shit. But it is an obligatory duty as a friend, and just so you all know, if and when I ever get hitched, I will punish all of you accordingly. Vengeance will be mine.

My horoscope said some interesting things today. Things that actually kind of…made sense. Keep in mind, I read that stuff purely for entertainment, but I must say, on the rare occasion that it is close to reality, it freaks me out a little. Today, it was pretty right on. I don’t remember the exactness of the whole thing, but I remember that it said something about being irritated with a loved one. And I can’t tell you how true that was today. And I felt guilty about it, remembered the words that the horoscope said, and ended the conversation. The best thing that I could have done.
