Out of it

It was a national holiday yesterday and I was still bloody bored, so I accepted an invite from some university acquaintances to go out. We ended up watching Spiderman 3 at Yuppie Hell (a.ka. Siam Paragon) then had a fifteen-minute debate as to where to grab a bite. One of the group was dying to try the new Japanese burger joint Mos Burger, but that meant traipsing a ways away to Central World and most the group vetoed that. We finally ended up MK Suki, ugh, which was just common enough not to provoke any sort of culinary revolution. I don't like suki much - what's the appeal in a sloppy mess of veggies and stuff you have to boil yourself anyhow? But I was too tired to refuse and so I just sat there poking at some roast duck. I try not to fuss about food too much anyhow (thanks to my folks who are all like, "If you were trapped in the jungle, you'd have to eat bugs to survive." Let's hope I'm never trapped in the jungle). Being out and about with other human beings reminds me...just how much I don't like it. Okay, don't get me wrong. Get me out with my friends and I am a freakin' riot. But put me with people I'm not too sure about and I feel like an open can of soda that's been left out too long. Sigh. Plus, I feel fat. I mean, I am fat, but I don't usually feel fat. I felt totally bloaty-bloat fat yesterday, and boring (and bored, too) and just twitchy. I went halfsies on a popcorn and soda set, and I ate half the popcorn before the movie even started and the guy I split with turned to me and gave me this face, like, "You glutton." Yeesh.  I zoned out at dinner; couldn't tell you what they were talking about for my life. At one point, this girl turned and was like, "Hey, you gonna pass those eggs or what?" She'd been asking me for like four minutes or something and I was just checked out. It's weird. I think once I get started in earnest on lesson-planning, this limbo thing ought to pass. For now, I guess I'll avoid other human beings and just focus on Supernatural.

Final thought: The movie was good, at least. Not as tight as the other two, but entertaining.
