August is the Cruelest Month
|
my smartphone up and died on me today and it will take me at least until next week to get it fixed.
meanwhile, I just moved into a new apartment yesterday and there are problems with the internet connection. namely, I have no access to it (yet)
so, as of today, I'm living as I did prior to '99, minus a landline (well, apart from having internet at work).
any ideas on how I should spend my days, other than hanging out so much with my friends (so I can use their internet) that they get sick of me?

that's actually not a bad idea, but renting movies would require a brick and mortar rental place, and, well, you know...
only thing I can think of is combining one the movies I already have on my laptop and haven't seen yet with copious amounts of booze until every last piece of media I have stored offline is enjoyable to me. plus, I can't drunktext stuff i'll regret in the morning!

I do have a stoop, but I live on a one-way, eight house street. so that'll be about 10 people i'll watch.
but I just had an alarming thought: I live a short walk from a pizza place, a mcdonalds and a Shawarma. If I decide to hang out in those places instead of doing anything productive during my leisure time, I'll end up gaining 15 lbs until I can get my phone and precious internet back .

spoken like a true 30-something fetishizing the 90s in a vain attempt to recreate the only time of true happiness in their mind.
that is to say, I get what you're saying. I bet I can find my scratched cd of nevermind at my mom's place and blast it at full volume while studying for my history exam and thinking that highschool is, like, totally bogus.
