First of all, sorry for not writing in a while. I’ve been busy. Michelle came to visit me on my birthday because…it was my birthday, duh. Then I went and got her after class on Wednesday and she was with me since then, until I left her earlier, and I tend to not get on the Internet much when she’s around. Anyway, she treated me to the Cheesecake Bistro on my birthday, which was nice. She’s the best for coming to see me. <3
It was really nice being around her for so long. Usually I have to wait until Friday to see her after I leave Sunday, but lately I haven't had to wait as long, so that'll make this week seem longer or something. But I have two exams and a presentation to do. :\ We'll see about all of that.
I bought a new mouse - a Microsoft Wireless Laser Mouse 8000, and it is some kind of awesome. It's bluetooth and rechargeable, and I've been wanting it for at least a year, but it's $90 almost everywhere I looked. Well, I'd given up and had settled on the Bluetooth notebook mouse Microsoft makes (branded the Microsoft Wireless Notebook Mouse 5000), and was seeing how much it was at Circuit City, when I noticed the 8000 for $45. Needless to say, I bought it barely without thinking twice, and it's been great so far. It's really nice looking (brushed aluminum), and it even matches my Apple Wireless Keyboard (kind of, haha), which is what I bought it to accompany, for whenever Apple updates the Mac Minis and I buy one.
As most of you know, I'm "semi"-lactose intolerant. I put that in quotes because people sometimes don't believe me when I say that. Get over it - I am. However, thanks to some vital information from MCat, it doesn't matter anymore! She's completely lactose intolerant, and she told me about a supplement called Lactaid Fast Act that actually works for her, so I tried it and it works for me too! 
Lactaid Fast Act can't protect me from underpaid Popeye's employees though. :\ Michelle's parents bought us a bunch of nuggets on Saturday, which are usually pretty good, but not this time. Why?
They were raw.
So yeah, we ate some raw chicken. I couldn’t tell because they’re nuggets, you know? They looked fine on the outside. You pop them into your mouth without looking on the inside of them. Plus, we were eating them with buffalo sauce, which kind of makes you taste less of the chicken and more of the sauce. I ate like 3 of them and she ate 4, and neither of us have salmonellosis yet, which is a good thing, but it’s still a possibility since it takes 6-72 hours to contract it. I don’t even like touching raw chicken, and the fact that I had it in my mouth is just…ewww.
But, we did go see Cobra Starship today, which was great. It was the second time I’ve seen them, and the first for Michelle. Last time I saw them was on Valentine’s Day last year with Cesar. I’m pretty sure this is the first band I’ve ever seen twice. It was the first time I’ve been to the Parish though (last time they were with Cartel, so it was in the House of Blues main music hall). Anyway, they sang a lot of my favorite songs by them, and it was just an overall good time. The crowd was pretty loud though, which made it harder to hear Mr. Gabe Saporta singing. And my ears are still ringing. D:
Also, when I was leaving Michelle’s house today, I stubbed my pinky toe on my driver’s side tire, and like…effed up my toenail pretty bad. It looks kind of gross but it doesn’t feel that bad.
Anywho, I’m off to bed. Early morning tomorrow, and a long day. D:
-Philip
