better than build your own ice luge

poodles is now officially my favorite referral term ever. there's no group this website speaks more clearly to than poodle lovers. obviously. i wonder what would happen if i typed cocka-poo. or golden-doodle. or the breed that really makes me swoon, labradoodle. that one really flows. no hyphen required.

did you think i might write about fat or something? nah. when statcounter gives you such gems you must embrace them. and when a reasonable band like the goo goo dolls is playing in bangor, you must get tickets. i'm not a huge fan, but it's enough that they are actually coming, here, to bangor that we have to go. pop culture doesn't swing north this often so we're going to take advantage of it.

we're not social creatures so this is good for us. we can go out and enjoy without having to actually talk to anyone. unlike all the parties we keep getting invited to. neither of us drink, matt in particular doesn't want to dress up for halloween, and we're not that keen on driving an hour both ways to do all these things we don't really want to do. if the stars align, we'll be buying a refridgerator instead. if that's not the stuff that keeps you young i don't know what is. mmm, kenmore.

is it horribly anti-social to not want to go to a friend of a friend's halloween party. reasonable or neurosis? should i be worried that i don't want to go to these parties...that at the ripe old age of 25 i'd rather take my beau out for pizza and groceries than mix with my peers? there's been a lot of do-it-yourself psychology around here lately. that's probably unfortunate.

Socializing is something I always have to force myself to do, telling myself "You need to go interact with people or you're going to die alone in your apartment and your cat will eat your face off before your body is discovered." (He'd do it too.) So, we're either both neurotic or some people just aren't as extroverted as others.
