I really dislike people who bitch about you being indecisive, then force you to make a decision, then bitch about the decision you made under pressure (because it's not the one they wanted you to make). Like just now, when my brother's all "Are you coming to dad's with me are you coming to dad's with me" and I tell him, "I don't know, I have to take a shower before I do anything," and he replies, "Don't lag, I have to go," so I tell him, "Fine, then just go without me," and then he started complaining. If he'd just waited ten minutes for me to take a damn shower, I'd have gone with him, but noooo, we can't have that.

I also really dislike stupid people who act like they're such hot shit, when in reality they're complete and utter dumbasses and the world would very much like it if they'd just stfu. They tend to be the same people who manage to talk for ten minutes straight without actually saying anything, are always, "Why do you have to make everything an argument?" when you correct them and also always have to get in the last word. Mostly I dislike people like that because they're really annoying, but also because they bring out my inner deadpan snarker and I have to make an effort to not respond to anything they say. (Like the kid who sits next to me in French class. Seriously, someone needs to just duct tape his mouth shut or something.)

I'm going to San Francisco tomorrow! My group's going to interview people for an intro video for our presentation. (The one that we really need to work on, because presentations start on the eighth and we... have not started. Like, at all.) And then I'm going out there again on Wednesday, for an AP field trip. I'm looking forward to both, but of course the first one's causing drama, or more accurately, dad's causing drama because of it. I'm not even going to elaborate; thinking about it's pissing me off.

In cheerier news, I finally got La Tale working again! So I've been grinding a bit; right now it's mostly for cash so I can buy something from the fancy shop (the cheapest item in the two that I can access is 100k), but also for levels, I guess; it's just that when I grind for levels it's really slow going, because my attack and defence are pretty low (since I'm playing a wizard) so I can't grind in level-appropriate areas without dying or using up a bunch of healing items. I get decent XP from quests, though, so it's not all bad. It... would probably also help if I weren't soloing, lol. I'm too antisocial to form a party, anyway /:

I think I'm going to go back to grinding until I figure out just wtf is going on today. |:

Level 17 in La Tale! :D It shouldn't feel like an accomplishment, but I've gone up two armour sets since yesterday, which does feel like an accomplishment; I went from pink to blue to blue-green, lol.

Also finished setting aside my clothes for tomorrow. I think the blazer might be a bit much, honestly, but it's the only really nice jacket I have, and anyway it matches the greyness of the rest of my outfit. I couldn't find my grey slacks, so I'm wearing my grey jeans instead; it's just as well, because none of my slacks have enough pockets to hold all my stuff anyway. Then the only dress shirt I have that fits properly anymore ): and a grey vest I haven't worn in ages, light grey and doublebreasted. (Though it actually fastens with hooks. I have to be careful, because sometimes the ones in the middle like to come undone when I slouch.) And then the darker grey (with pink pinstripes!) blazer and my nice new dress shoes.

It's an awfully good thing that I roughly know my way around a needle; one of the buttons from the blazer came out in the dryer, and it's really poor quality, not even lined and with loose serged edges just hanging there. So I sewed the button back on and did my best to tidy it up a bit; I basically had to just sew what I could to the pocket, because if I'd done any more to it, it would have shown through the front (since it's not lined). It won't really keep me warm, but at least it'll look nice.

Complete subject change: it's 21 degrees with 43% humidity. Whoever said "twenty is nice" was an asshole; it's ridiculously warm, especially in the house. At least outside there's a breeze... /:
