Excuse me...I am retarded
Today, I got Chinese food delivered to d-level for my advisor and me. In my happiness to see the food arrive (and my apprehension that I had to forge my advisor's signature), I completely and totally forgot to tip the delivery guy. He handed me the receipt to sign, I didn't even look at the price, and all I did was fake a signature. And then he just stood there for a little bit, and I was kind of like, "Um...ok, thanks!" and happily pranced away, much to his dismay I am sure. And I'm walking back to d-level thinking about food and how great delivery is when it hits me like a ton of bricks, 'I DID NOT TIP THE DELIVERY GUY'. No wonder he was standing there like an idiot while I said "goodbye." Insert massive freakout at my stupidity along with five people heckling me for being the "delivery scrooge." Needless to say, I quickly called up the food place and asked them to add the tip. I hope they remember, and I hope that delivery guy realizes that it was me who remembered to tip him in the end. Felt kind of dumb for totally forgetting...DOH.
On the other hand. I am indecisive. Should I go with a place that will pay me approximately $4000 less for the summer but I will *most likely* make progress on, or should I go for the one with more money but the project is sort of open ended and sort of not as related to my stuff? I'm supposed to make a decision like tonight. I can't decide. It's a battle between 1) the pragmatic side of me and 2) the "I want MOOLAH" side of me. I kno I'm supposed to listen to 1, but I am really REALLY loving 2. In the long run, I know that the moolah isn't going to matter. And in the long run, I know that if I make forward progress I'm more likely to graduate faster and get a real paying job later. But I am also a bit afraid that I am feeling kind of tired of what I am doing, and a change of pace would be nice. But then again, if I waffle around too much, I will *never* graduate.
God. I'm such a waffler. Waffle waffle waffle. . . .
Which reminds me! I got chick-fil-a coupons today. Waffle fries, here I come! (Did ya like that transition? Did ya? I waffle, waffle fries, chick-fil-a? Hehehe)
EDIT: I am a waffler no more. Take me five hours...but a waffler I am not anymore (for the moment that is).
