What are you thinking about?

What is on your mind? Anything puzzling, interesting, or just randomness.
This is a thread that can go anywhere or nowhere. Share what's on your mind.
I'm thinking about whether or not I should go to the postgrad centre to write or up to the lounge. The lounge is nicer, I like the tables better. But the postgrad centre is dead quiet, which I prefer. And it has a kettle. Because tea. <3

Reading news, I invariably run across a picture of Justin Bieber due to some new display of immaturity. He always seems to have a squinty eyed, scrunched forehead look. I'm not sure what the motiviation is for this; does he perhaps think it makes him look like a bad ass, is it meant to convey coolness, is he constantly confused, is he actually a deep thinker? To me he always looks like he's trying to pass a twelve pound turd.

Just watched North beat the bombers...
Sad for the SWMBO who's a bomber supporter ( her dad played in 5 grand finals for the bombers)... I'm a one eyed pie...
Tigers tomorrow... Boy, will this be an upset, but I doubt they will.
Only a tigers fan genuinely thinks they can win, no-one else does...

Some friends I haven't seen in a while asked me to come out tonight for a few drinks... it was one of their birthdays recently.
Only problem is I have a free ticket to an online poker tournament that I was planning on playing (I won it last month and it was my biggest win yet).
I don't wanna go out and miss the tournament.
But I also don't wanna bust out of the tournament early and regret not going out. It'd be a double blow.
Fuck... saying no feels wrong, saying yes feels wrong. What the fuck life. What the fuck.

Contemplating my weekend, wondering how much of a college volleyball tourney I want to see, and if only the SDSU, what the hell else am I going to do?
Along the same line, tomorrow, the 9-11 memorial staircase climb (or whatever it's called) occurs at one of the downtown hotels. They say it's sold out, but there is a beer garden and ceremonies and such. It benefits EMS workers iin 9-11, I think. Not sure what they mean by "sold out". Maybe just the spaces for actual runners, which I would not be. I could still watch? I dunno.
Planning, planning, planning. That's what's on my mind.

He's trying to pull a Jaden Smith.

You could always go out another night. Make up for it with your poker tournament winnings.

You can go out another night. You can't make the money in a tournament you don't play in.
Me, I'm thinking I should have enlisted more help with today's move. Haven't even picked up the truck yet and my back already hurts.

So I take it, you managed to find an apartment that suits your needs/desires? (I only read the first page of your apartment hunt thread.)
By the Seahawks logo, I assume you're in Seattle?
I lived in King county a few years ago. Three different towns in 6 months. I couldn't make up my mind.

Trying to decide who's going to be the main villain in my book. Got to be someone who hates the US, on account of the plot. Can't be Syrian or Moroccan 'cos I used them in some other stories. Not Saudi because of Bin Laden. Afghans got no money, ditto Yemen. Iran too obvious. S America is the wrong area. Damn, this is tricky.

Not quite - Vancouver. Yep, I found something, not perfect but it'll do for now.
Right now, I'm thinking about glaring at the guy at the rental counter until my truck gets here. I've been waiting for an hour. That'll help, right?
