I never got any responses to my article, which was disappointing. Previous inquiries were at least met with polite rejections, which made me feel like I was at least getting something for my trouble. Ah, well, at least silence probably isn't an assessment of the piece's quality. Odds are they just tossed it in the trash and forgot about it.

Anyway, I'm also miffed because the couple I was supposed to see grindhouse films with tonight decided to blow me off. Things seemed great last time we got together for dinner and the guy told me to e-mail him just last week, but now they aren't responding. We'd only made plans together 3 times before now, so it's not like I'm losing valued friends, but I'm still pretty insulted.

In general, my relationships seem to form and then disappear at random, and the arbitrary nature of it all leaves me feeling like there was no point to any of it.

At least I'm doing alright with my bullshit education. I've got an A average, which is at least looks nice on my transcript. I've still got two years to go before I'm done with my undergrad, though.

I can also jog for six miles at a pace of nine minutes per mile, which is nice considering I spent my high school gym classes taking Beginner's Yoga/Power Walking every semester. I'm hoping to eventually make it to ten miles per session, then maybe work on speed. I've also started a push-up routine, though I'm not sure if I'll keep at that.
