one.
the last official day of summer will be spent having surgery. having a week off from life should be nice, but I suppose I should catch up on some movie-watching while I hermitize myself. I've been promising Sam that I'd watch "Wet Hot American Summer" and I should finally get around to seeing "Before Sunrise" and "Before Sunset". any other suggestions?

I've come to accept it: Portions for Foxes and The Frug are the stories of my life.

I spent the evening with a friend of mine who just got back from Rome. over mochi, we discussed how bad we both are at coping with loss. our issue is that the ways we interact in social situations have drastically changed due to certain profoundly painful events. at the risk of sounding selfish, I'm glad to know that I'm not going through this alone.

I've had a couple super awful days in a row. a few days ago, Jill, my favorite manager, saw that I was upset and started tap dancing for me in the managers' office, which made me cry a little bit. when I stopped by work to pick up my new schedule this afternoon, she said that she has been worried about me. it's amazing how some people have such big hearts.
post.script.
YAWP oh four (plus Adrizzle) at UIC. I was just looking at old photos and this one made me laugh out loud because everyone looks so damn uncomfortable.
YAWP oh five (plus Dennis) in Boston. I'd say we're looking more like ourselves.
