It's time to get involved...

One of the things I was sad about yesterday was that I hadn't made any friends here. I did roleplay for a while, but I totally flaked on the poor GM, between work and often feeling needed here by my girlfriend.
Anyways...
This is something I found when i first got here. I think it's time to make myself go to Games Club of Maryland, which looks right up my alley. A bunch of people getting together, having fun and playing, apparently, board games.
There's something going on Monday in Beltsville (by work) which I'll miss today because I need to get laundry done. Maybe next week. Something Thursdays in Laurel (near work) and something Sunday. If nothing else, I am definately going to do their Alpha Soup this upcoming Sunday. Yes, that could be hoopy, indeed!
I think this looks like a step in the right direction for me. Certainly making myself get out of the house and interact with more people has to be a positive thing.

Me, as a song

A few days ago, I asked people.. if they were a song, what would they sound like?
I promised to answer for myself. I intend to fulfill that promise.
I think, if I were a song, I'd sound like some amlgamation of TMBG and BnL.
It would definately have lyrics. That's where TMBG comes in. The lyrics would be geeky and riddled with references to in jokes or pop culture.
The music itself would be, on the surface, very simple. A strong base, four four time, probably a guitar, but as you listened to it, it would become obvious that the actual melody is more complex than it first seemed.
And, like Barenaked Ladies, the music would be, superficially cheery, happy, bouncy but there'd be hints, under the music, in the lyrics, that the music was actually vaguely disturbing. Violent imagery, adult themes, the like.
That, I think, would be me as a song.

I failed my sleep roll today. I got four hours, woke up about 2:30 and.. never got back to sleep.
Today should be... interesting.

Time... marches on...

Life continues, I guess.
I'm definately beginning to feel the no sleep :p
I have work, for right now, and that's... so vital I can't begin to say. The idea of having nothing to distract me was... scary.

I think I'm going to be leaning pretty heavily on LJ for a while, possibly on some of you personally, but definately on LJ.

Not much else to say, I guess.
Back to work I go.

The worst part...

The worst part is trying to figure out what to do with myself.
I'm home, I'm feeling very alone and I'm not sure what to do. Laundry will be done soon. I've cleaned up the house soon, updated my checking account spreadsheet.. and... now what?
I'm gonna get out of here on Sunday, and possibly Thursday (probably Thursday, at this rate.)
What do I DO with myself? Most of my friends aren't online and I can't seem to entertain myself, right now, offline.
Ideas? Please?
