13 (awkward)

So here's a quick one:

After a day of laundry and reading and not much else, I fell into a nap at 20h00. I reawoke at 21h00, read some more, ate a snack and then went to bed at 23h00 so as to be well-rested for class at 9h00 the next day.

Instead, I laid in bed until 4h00 at which point I began a dream that involved me trying not to fall off of something vague and big. At the last moment, I realized it was a dream and woke myself up. But instead of actually waking up, I began another dream where I scaled jungle walls to avoid being eaten by the leopard who was bearing down on me.

I woke up from this dream at 5h00. I woke up two more times before getting up at 8h00. I do not know why I have such a wack time sleeping. Yen Ni says it's because I am sensitive. I wonder if sensitive people have an acute fear of large cats and heights.

(note: I am in the library and there is a guy in here who must be a monk or something because he is old and wearing a robe and looks like he is going to cast a spell on me. He isn't even reading anything, just wandering around and openly surveying people. Perhaps he is a magic security guard. If he starts scoping me out, I am going to sneak up on him later and "accidentally" step on his robe. Ha! Like a "flat tire" for clergy!)

But the really story is that I got an unprecedented e-mail from my estranged peer Anna. We haven't spoken in two months because of blah blah blah. But today I discovered she sent me a link to a video about a guy who has trouble picking up chicks because of language difficulties. Which is pretty much my life. Because I was so surprised by this message, I forwarded it to Yen Ni and said "Hey, Anna e-mailed me. Bizarre." followed by some nonsense about the three girls who have crushes on me and how I am trying to get them all to go on this beach trip with me and some other Japanese girls. Why? Well, because I love awkward situations.

Except that I actually sent that message to Anna.

(This freaking monk is doing it again! When he turns, his robe flows around him mystically. I think he does it on purpose, stopping with just the right momentum and twist to let rotational inertia turn him into a mini maypole. I also think those robes make you go bald only in the middle of your scalp.)

So after doing a Google search for "Can I unsend a message in Gmail?" and discovering the answer is:
1) No
2) If you make sure that your message is correct before clicking send, you do not need to do that.
3) Yes, if you crash the server at the same time that you send the message. Not that you can do that now?
4) NO.
5) What are you, stupid?

I decided to be a man and send Anna a follow up message:
"hey.
i was supposed to send that message to yen ni.
uh... it's only awkward if you let it?"

I wish creating these situations was a marketable skill. I don't know anyone who is as pro at it as me. Maybe I could get a job writing for The Office and just recount the events of my daily life.

And now I am going to find a couple with their arms around each other and sneak my arm around the girl to see how long it takes her to realize her boyfriend's gained an extra appendage.
