Well, life continues to get more expensive. Not a great thought to start my day, but at the very least I was up and about when I wanted to be, which is a Good Thing™.

I pottered around a bit having some food and getting ready for my day before heading in to university. I stopped by the Anime Club office again, to make sure I had the right place for tonight. There were a lot more people in there this time, only one of which was from before. That’s ok though, Kindra gave me directions and I headed on my merry way to my office. At the office I pretty much just worked solidly all day. At the end of the day I had a brief meeting with one of the faculty in the Architecture department, as a course she’s offering looks really interesting and I will be trying to go to it, pending my research issues. Right now it’s looking more and more likely that I won’t be able to do any research at all, which means I won’t get Honours, I’ll end up with a Postgrad Diploma in Science instead… which is pretty annoying actually, but there isn’t a lot I can do about it right now. I’ll just have to go and hassle everyone I can think of on Monday.

Anyway, after that I went to the Anime Club screening, which was ok. I met a whole bunch of people whose names I’ve pretty much forgotten already (I suck at the name game) and watched some anime. While a few of them were chatty and so on, I got the oddest feeling like even though there were a bunch of people of like mind and interest around me, it just made me feel more alone. I was ruminating on this as I was leaving and heading back to my office to get Angelina and the rest of my gear. I need a drink, and a hug, not necessarily in that order. In any case, I’ve got a bunch of people who I can at least get to know better and see about being a bit more social, which is all for the good.

That said, it wasn’t a good night for anything involving thinking… loneliness can consume, if you let it.
