the pain, the pain

Quite the Monday!

* Learned a friend of mine is suffering from something that sounds like a paranoid disorder

* Polished off a project that I thought would be much harder than it turned out to be

* Got a call from my mom telling me how much she enjoyed some cookies I baked for her

* Came across a potentially-useful GURPS game supplement

* Started to organize a friend's birthday lunch in a vain attempt to keep drama under control

* Was told by a random person that I reminded him of his grandpa (due to my hat and how I was walking with my umbrella)

With that last point, I opted not to tell him to f*ck off in an uncharacteristic show of self-restraint.
