Last night I dreamed about many things, but I remember in one of the dreams, the buttons were falling off my blazer, and I was catching them and pocketing them, and experience which I have actually had with some frequency at work ( Read more... )

I didn't go to work today.  My stomach felt like a ball of sludge when I woke up, and so instead I lounged about watching television on dvd and mentally preparing myself for this afternoon's dentist appointment ( Read more... )

I went and saw Thirst last night, and it was not as violent as I thought it would be.  The review that the Pickford has been using to advertise it makes it seem like it's going to become some brutal gore-fest, when actually, there is more of a puncture-wounds-spurting and blood-vomiting sort of vibe to it.

I am still feeling a little run over since derby training last weekend.  My knee, which I twisted in an ugly way the other night, is feeling way better, but my legs and back are still super sore.  It is a good feeling to feel that I'm getting stronger on the skates, but not as good a feeling that my lack of cooridination always feels like it's ( Read more... )

Last night, as walked from the bank to where I would eventually run into Peter outside of the Nightlight, some guy stopped and asked me, "Do you know, is there anything to get in this town?"  I was a little confused ( Read more... )

Last night at karaoke, I decided to sing "Family Tradition", a song that I used to hear all the time at Doc Holliday's on Avenue A when Stephan and I used to go there every Monday after band practice.  People knew the call back lines, which made it a much more fun song to sing ( Read more... )

My head feels pretty fuzzy this morning, and I'm guessing that I may have once again said things that will be annoying to some people, but I'm okay with it.  I had some cider when I got home from the bar because I felt like it, but then I woke up this morning feeling like the day was still hours off and that I couldn't do it after the sugar and the ( Read more... )
