progress?

I asked a question in a real seminar for the first time ever last week. I tried to ask another one today, but I was sitting at the back and the people with the microphones refused to look in my direction. I went up to the speaker afterwards to ask, though. Two of them, in fact. I hovered around another person for a bit, but she seemed very involved in conversation, so I gave up.

I also argued with someone who was trying to take my elliptical machine at the gym. He insisted he'd signed up for it until I brought the sheet over with my initials on it. Then I felt kind of bad because he ended up on the machine next to me so I could've just taken that one. Still, he shouldn't have refused to believe me even after I went back and checked the sign-up sheet.

Of course, now I'm hiding in my room, trying to decide if I'm hungry enough to brave the housemates who are in the kitchen... I haven't done my group therapy homework yet either, which was to talk to people I usually ignore at lab.

In unrelated news, is this not the most hideous website you've ever seen?
