Hmm, and the judges say...
Jan. 24th, 2005 08:54 pmStill a good night.
I went down to the campus tonight. I had like 20 pages to print for shakespeare, and no way was I going to print that out at home. Plus, Maria works in the calc lab monday nights. Which, of course, makes the paper printing a fortuitous excuse to be there (mostly for me). I don't think I'll need one whenever it is I next go in though. Anyhoo, I got to talk a good hour with Maria before I dragged myself away to print my paper and head home. Naturally, I left mentally kicking myself for a few stupid things I said, as happens pretty near every time I talk to people, but I think it went well, all things considered.
It was in the parking lot that I could have just kicked myself, and may still do so, though I may as well laugh as I do so. I put the key into the lock, and the door wouldn't open. After like the 7th or 8th turn I started freaking. The thing is, the passenger door won't unlock from the passenger side already, so I could have possibly been locked out. I decided to try the passenger door anyway, but as I was going around, I noticed my car two spaces over. I had been, for a good minute or two, trying to open someone else's car. Talk about a red face. Then, to top it off, my first two tries, my real car door wouldn't open either, but it did in the end, so that's a relief. But man, what an adrenaline rush that. Yeesh.
Regardless though, I'm still quite happy with this evening. Yay me. Thanks God.
