2002-09-03 - 10:09 p.m.� Today two random strangers, one on the elevator and another at the bus station, decided to make small talk with me by asking if I was glad to be back at school. Considering the college kids in this town have been back at school for over a week now, I can only assume that these random strangers mistook me for a high school student. So, exactly how long until being mistaken for 10 years younger than I am becomes a compliment? Because at 26, I have to say that I'm still not loving it. However, I think the fact that I did not get pissy with these people, like I used to do when someone grossly misjudged age, is a sign of my maturity. Showing maturity was quite a feat today too, considering that I got 3, maybe 4, hours of sleep last night. I don't know what was wrong with me, but I absolutely could not get to sleep. No good reason for it either-- I made sure to not to oversleep on Sunday night, I wasn't stressed about anything, and I waited until I was really tired before I settled into bed. The worst thing about a night like that, when I can't get to sleep for no good reason, is that I worry that the next night will be a repeat. I really hope not. I'm tired, damnit, and I need to get some sleep. I got through work okay today, all things considered. It was really busy, but nothing to stress me out. And I did get a nice little compliment today from a coworker that pretty much made up for the "back to school" comments I got from strangers. The coworker asked me if I've lost weight recently, because I look slimmer. I don't know that I have lost any weight (I certainly didn't notice any changes in my size when I was clothes shopping) but it was certainly nice to hear. Maybe all the swimming and walking I've been doing lately is actually paying off. Imagine that.
