strange sensation

today i got a haircut, nothing fancy. about an hour later i grabbed my book (still on Problem of Pain) and went across the street to the coffee shop. i walk in and immediately every one in the room stopped what they were doing and stared at me. not just a quick glance but a full on stare, and this place was full too, probably 30 people. i kinda shocked back for a second and then pretended it wasnt happening, ordered my coffee and sat down to read. it was very weird, i read for about a minute before conversations resumed throughout the room. i mentally checked myself out to make sure i didn't have some horrific problem that would warrant such a reaction, but i was clean. very weird.

my past couple of days have been great. i've got a lot accomplished. registered for class, did my taxes, job interview, payed for classes (out of money again by the way), did insane amounts of yard work for my parents, and did my laundry. i like being busy. unfortunately now that all that is done, and school doesn't start until monday... i am bored. work doesn't help either. they still refuse to give me more shifts even though i've given them my new school schedule which is much easier to work around. i really hope this other job pans out.

this is nothing new to me, but i am terrible with money. in the past 2 weeks, ive blown about 200 bucks that i really could've used for more productive things. i pretty much should never come into contact with money again, because if i think i have it, i will spend it, even if i know i am going to need it later.

on an ending note, i have been playing the song "Magazine" by Pedro the Lion in my head a lot recently. very good tune. i especially like the line "I can feel the darkness rising as you cram lies down my throat. how does that work out for you in your holy quest to be above reproach?"

thats it i guess
