I want to remember that Bren said that I am normal tonight. I'm not a patient or a crazy person. I might be kind of weird compared to convention but that doesn't mean I'm not normal. That we are just people and we are together making the same mistakes everyone makes, trying to form our lives. If I remember that I'll be happy. The snow was falling ( Read more... )

Yesterday, I braved the cold and went to the City, where I met Ivy, Jen, and Swappy for Restaurant Week. Originally, Ivy and I were going to go to an exhibit at the Met, but we only got 2 blocks in when we realized, wow, its COLD, and fled back to the apartment to watch Sex and the City. :P Finally we went back outside and braved the crosstown bus ( Read more... )

I just finished reading Azar Nafisi's great work, "Reading Lolita in Tehran." For those of you who haven't heard of it, it's essentially a memoir, narrative, and literary criticism wrapped into text. It is an essentially true account (names and events have been altered to protect identities, but it is essentially the same) about Dr. Nafisi, a ( Read more... )

I think the way you spend your time with a friend in the City is very indicative of your relationship with them. When I hung out with Krys and Lindsay, we did wacky/quirky things, then saw an awesome movie. With Bren, we tried to share the City the best we could ( Read more... )

Bren stayed up all night to get me a copy of Burning Crusade. I was very happy. I actually didn't feel well yesterday so I took a sick day, and VERY conveniently it was BC release day. Seriously, I wasn't intending to play for 7 hours, but what'cha gonna do ( Read more... )

Last night was the best Lair Hoot I've been to :) Besides Pablo being there, which was lots of fun, there was much football, cookies, AND I got seeded on the big TV. (We play Smash tournament style on 2 TVs, first place on the small TV gets moved up to the big TV, last on the big TV moves down to the small TV.) I earned enough points to stay on the ( Read more... )

At The Original Music School, an incredibly awesome music studio that's about 2 feet from my current job. It should be pretty easy (logistics-wise) to go to work, then the gym, then grab a bite to eat, then teach lessons a couple nights a week. I gave a little mock lesson, it felt rather empowering. I really think it's important to teach kids how ( Read more... )
