La la la, the day, things, la la la.

Tonight’s party was nice enough. It feels good when people act like they’re happy to see you. I looked rather swanky, at the expense of foot comfort. Standing around for a few hours in high heels when you’re not used to wearing them is not a good idea. A lot of the people there were Joe’s friends from college. I think it would be strange to have a party with you guys and my high school friends. I’m not sure who of my high school friends I would invite, I don’t really have a core group. Just a few scattered people. I think you all would have gotten along with the people at the party tonight.

The only other thing I did today was go to Ikea. My first time! It was large and cheap and made me want to get my own apartment and then furnish it. It also made me a little uncomfortable… it felt like the Walmart of furniture and home furnishings. There was even a cafeteria.

I am frustrated by my inability to focus on more than one thing at a time. I have been spending all my time knitting, and have failed to do any of the following:

• Read more than 100 pages of any book. I have SO MANY books I want to read, and I’m just… not reading them.
• Even think about internships, etc. for this summer. I haven’t even gone back to the promising ones I bookmarked and checked their deadlines.
• Exercise.
• Meditate. I was planning to do this over vacation to help my focus, which is sadly lacking. Maybe some night I will go to the Cambridge Insight Meditation Center. That place is nice.

Tomorrow my grandmother is sleeping over because my mother is taking her for a pre-surgery thing in the morning. She is sleeping in my bed, and I am sleeping on the couch. My room is so messy and full of items! It will be really weird.
