Spring is coming!

I didn't know people used the term "fag" as a "cool" thing to say to friends still... but I overheard it among a group of young guys (probably 13 or so) yesterday, on the train. They were kidding around, saying, "oh man, you're such a fag" in the same way that someone else might say, "oh you're such a dork." The only times recently that I've heard that term have been in a blatantly aggressive way, like when I've walked down the street with my gay friend and had someone yell it at us... but the fact that it still exists as a term that young people use in regular conversation, as a way to jokingly put down someone, BAFFLES me. I couldn't believe it.

ANYWAY.

In other news, I am in a dispute with Bally Fitness.

It is also gorgeous weather, and I am excited to go on a 5-6 mi run with Nikhil and Julie... Yay for training for the Broad Street Run!!! :)

I have so many f-ing evaluations to go through at work. ARGH. But I have to get going so I can get to Trader Joe's in time to get tofu before the crowd hits. AH!

Okeydokes... well tata just had to get that off my chest.

also,
From my new obsession, Sara Bareilles's song "Undertow":

"Silly me, look what I did again.
I found what I want is what I cannot have
I didn't mean to be so predictable,
But I blame it all on who made you irresistible

And it isn't something I need 'til you tell me I can't
Why wear my heart on my sleeve when it looks so good in your hand.

My heart breaks in a heart beat
And you storm me when you come and go
The taste of something so sweet should have
Warned me 'bout the undertow."

a great song. definitely speaks to me.....
