Realizations (that I'm a horrid human being)

The city bus that I take to co-op runs from the university across town to the mall, so I often run into friends that go to the university. Today, Missy happened to be on the bus, so we sat together and were slightly loud and obnoxious, as we are both prone to being, which just escalates when in close quarters with each other. The topic of a local band arose while she was debating aloud whether to go a coffee house tonight, as they were playing there, but we both came to the conclusion that they were vastly overrated and that the front man vaguely resembles a muppet. Our conversation moved on from that, but when I got off at my stop, out of the corner of my eye, I saw someone sitting behind me with unmistakably muppet like features. He looked back at me with a look of disdain, making all my hopes of perhaps our comments having escaped his ears disappear. Guys, I dropped an insult directly about a stranger on public transit, unknowingly while they were present. Oops. I am one of the world's biggest assholes. Maegan replied to this situation with the text "Now he knows he looks like a muppet. He'll never be able to unsee that."  Missy and I are currently planning the creation of buttons that say "World's biggest asshole" to give society a fair warning. Sometimes I think I'm not as much of an asshole as I think I am, but then something like this confirms it several times over.

 I also somehow got myself invited to a New Year's Eve party held by someone who I barely know, solely because Missy was disappointed that I don't know the group of music kids from a neighboring town. At least I have at one interesting option for my New Year's Eve, now. I'd feel a little bad about abandoning the tradition of tenting out in a senior's hall in the sticks with youth group with copious amounts of midnight snacking, but hey, a party could be potentially more interesting and include fewer people that annoy me. Probably.

And those are the things that happened to me today: I publicly insulted people on city transit and got invited to a party that's a month and a half away that I probably won't attend unless I find myself utterly devoid of other options. I hope your day included fewer realizations that apologies in the form of balloons would be nice to give people than mine did.
