ok so:
a) when you're drunk and hungry after an awesome burlesque show, don't go to best of thai noodle on haight right before closing time, because they will cook your food on a meaty grill and make you sick for days. oh if only i could learn to enjoy feeling like i'm being punched in the stomach 24 hours a day, then it wouldn't be so bad.
b) if you see a really cute video with a ukulele soundtrack, and it makes you want to buy a ukulele, don't bother. the intonation on ukes, as it turns out, is too sensitive to survive being restrung lefty, so instead of dulcet tones you get frets that don't make the notes they're supposed to. goddamn it. all i wanted to do was pass some time learning a new instrument while i'm sick. is that too much to ask?
c) never look at your bank account and make a reasonable decision based off of financial goals when considering whether to buy plane tickets to vancouver or not. you will inevitably realize that although you're slightly ahead of your projections, paying $600 to cross the border (as opposed to $200 to go to LA or NYC and back) will drive you into credit card spending, and that's imprudent. prudence is, despite its usual feminine association, my middle name.
so in short: i'm sick as fuck, my new toy doesn't work, and i had to cancel my trip to vancouver. fuck.
if anyone needs me i'll be moping around and losing at yahoo pool.

Just proving to myself that I wasn't nuts.
