    Well, I can't seem to get much done these days.  I'm pretty sure it has a lot to do with Rodzilla's presence.  I'm glad she's here, but it's tough to get anything done when you're suddenly sharing your room with someone, and when all their stuff is all over the place.  Still, I guess I don't really mind all that much.  She can't wait to move into her own place though.  But for now, it's nice having her around.  But I sure am tired.  In fact, right now I'm writing this with my head leaning all the way back in my chair, not even able to muster the energy to sit up straight and look at what I'm doing. I think I'm doing all right though. I always pretty much type the same things anyway, so it's not that tough.  Well, now that I'm sitting up, I did have to go back and change a good amount. And i feel like a goober because someone just walked by and saw what I was doing.

    Anyhow, i guess Rodzilla is moving into her apartment tomorrow. And I guess I'm helping her. I'm taking the day off from work tomorrow. Not much I could do anyway, since the place is shutting down. The entire kit and caboodle is moving down to the Village after tomorrow, so this is my last day in the office on 5th Ave.  I usually get  a little nostalgic at the times, but i've only been here for three weeks, so that would be kind of absurd.

    So the reason I'm tired is because I was up late.  What was I doing? Out at a bar?  Drinking up a storm?  Hanging and and talking with a buncha friends?  Nope.  I was up till 1am playing Scrabble.  4 hours of scrabble is about all I can take. But since we have no money, I guess Rodzilla figured board games would be a fun and cheap way to entertain ourselves.  It was entertaining for me mostly because I won every game.  And Jed and I had a devilishly good time making up our own words, which amused us to no end.  I was trying to institute the rule that at the end of the game, you can use all the words the rules say you can't, like proper nouns.  I was really excited to play "TITO."

    Toward the end of the first game, Rodzilla informed me "Even if you win, you don't win."  She was saying this because she thought I cheated.  Which I suppose I had. Before we started playing, I stole almost all the vowels and stuck them in my pocket. I got a good chuckle out of that. But i fessed up after I took my first term, which was the first move of the game.  Of course, no one had a problem with it at that point, and I even said we should probably start over. But neither Rodzilla nor Jed said anything, so I thought we'd just keep playing. So of course, the game's almost over when she pulls the "this game is under protest" crap.  Which prompted me to get up and refuse to play until she rescinded her protest.  Which made her tell me I was acting like a baby, which made me run out of the room saying I wasn't a baby.  Then I came back, sat down, and said I wasn't going to play.  which made her say I was being obnoxious.  Which made me say that she was being obnoxious.  Which made her tell me that I was completely exasperating.  Anyway, this went on and on and on.  My point was, she shoulda brought it up at the beginning of the game. Am I right? You can't lodge a protest at the end.  Anyway, I suppose our differences were settled without too much damage. Of course, then earlier today she asked me about her weight...
