Animal movies and mp3 players

Okay, I was invited to see a film about animal intelligence at the vet campus and smiled at the thought of hearing the different perpectives and theories of students and professors alike, but more importantly, it would be a chance to learn something new.
Well when I got there, it was hardly the intellectual crowd I expected and the movie itself I had seen before on PBS or Discovery Channel or somewhere and it didn't tell me anything I didn't already know or heard of before. However there were a couple of interesting scenes, but for the most part, it was a struggle to stay awake. I think the only thing that saved me was my friend texting me every now and then.

After the movie I chatted with my friend who invited me to the movie and she has lost a lot of weight which was very impressive, even though she'll probably gain a lot of it back when she stops eating like a bird. Oh well, she'll figure it out eventually.

Afterwards I went to the gym and had pretty damn good work out and then I went over to my friend's place to pick up my free mp3 she promised me, but unfortunately that didn't happen. She was a bit distracted downloading all 4000 songs from her computer to her fancy new mp3 player.
I spent a good 4 hours waiting around, listening to her go on and on about how she loves her new mp3 player and all that, but she never got around to giving me her old player.
One bright spot was that we ate at IHOP, but that became an exercise in humiliation when I realized that I had forgotten my wallet and she had to pay for both of us.
Ugh... sad thing is, this is the second time that has happened, even though we're not dating, I'm sure the workers there think I'm the cheapest deadbeat of a boyfriend ever! So much for eating at IHOP again. Blah...

Oh well, she was still fun to hang out with even though I didn't get that mp3 player.

  1. You are such a regular that I seriously doubt they think you are a deadbeat boyfriend. Besides, who would you be a boyfriend to? Ya' know IHOP is where you take all your ho's. (bad spelling, but "hos" just looked too freaking weird)
