I watched the movie Palindromes the other night by myself, when I was already in a strange mood. Hannah had recommended it to me, and once I had the house to myself and was considering putting it on, I got a sudden text from her saying "Watch the movie." Her and I will have lunchtime conversations all the time, sometimes every day, and one day I ( Read more... )

I gave myself a break from exercise tonight, seeing as last night it knocked me out cold. Plus, I worked an almost ten-hour day today, getting up super early after a stupid burst of inspiration kept me up until almost one last night. Feeling particularly blah.

I wonder if I would feel quite so uninspired if I lived alone.

Um. I made muffins tonight? Eileen has been sad lately, some personal mess I can't even begin to think about, so I made them for her. Walked/jogged for 2.8 miles straightaway when I came home, and by ten o'clock I was absolutely glued to the reading chair.

After a couple of glasses of white wine, I am all, fuck this, and grins! I need a boyfriend.

Seriously, how many bad days in a row can a person have? I'm trying to quit my whining, but shit keeps happening.

Sat on the covered back porch while a surprise storm blew in through Austin, with all the lights in the house turned off, and listened to the popping thunder and watched the sky flicker nonstop. The rain came down hard, and fell down from the roof in a sheet of water that froze into large drops in the brightest flashes. Found myself lost and, ( Read more... )

Thursday night, went and smoked a couple bowls at Megan's apartment up by the Arboretum, drove home late and fell asleep on the couch. Yesterday I went into work with a massive caffeine headache, since I had neither the time to make nor buy coffee, and suffered through the lines of people out the door. Then I was walked into the company President's ( Read more... )
