( Another action-packed day in a small warehouse theatre in Austin, Texas.. )

( you're on spring break, kids, not like you don't have time for useless nonsense.. )

oh! for warm baths at 9:30 at night. When I was younger I only liked freezing cold baths. [Proving my freakishness.] Now I smell like ecualyptus and oranges and my hair is curly wet and I don't know what to do with my evening. Bed, of course, is an option, but that seems so predictable ( Read more... )

I am trying desperately hard to keep calm. It is difficult.

Because there are these blasted BIRDS outside my window who have been making this Psycho-like chirping noise since six in the morning. It is persistent and impossible to drown out. You try putting a pillow over each ear, but oh no, that doesn't work. You try running to the opposite ( Read more... )

I have a cold, so stay away from me and my bodily fluids unless you want your head to feel like there's a vacuum attached to your ear.

Also, Charlize Theron is officially on my "Bad List" (like Halle Berry. See this post.) The Oscars were a little bland, I felt, and I was sad that Return of the King swept up some of the arty awards that Girl ( Read more... )

Things that don't bother me at all when I'm sitting at home, watching Addams Family Values and knitting, suddenly irk me immensely the moment I spend time with other people. Which is why, of course, I should become a hermit of some sort, and avoid the crazed population entirely. But then I'd never have a baby - holding Milo today made my maternal ( Read more... )

I spent my morning holding a one-month old sleeping baby boy, who was sweet and adorable and smelled like baby powder. He had a strange little reflex - every time I moved his head slightly, he'd shoot both his arms up above his head, even in sleep. I might get to be his baby-sitter this summer, since they'll need someone 3-4 hours a day on ( Read more... )

I just found out that there's an Uglydoll Website! Oh, the bliss. Cinko now sits in my lap when I'm on the computer. He likes the red tulips on my desktop, as they are prettier than he.

Earlier today I wrote an entry, which my mother's computer promptly ate, about how glad I was to anticipate partaking of good food on Valentine's, rather than anticipating an awkward date. And I am still glad. Artichokes, risotto, blood orange salad, and shortbread with strawberries and whipped cream will make everything right in my world, at ( Read more... )

Lost in Translation has stolen my heart. As have bananas with milk and sugar. I'm glad my heart is so divided, because Valentine's Day is soon and I don't need to be distracted, losing bits of my heart to other things. Or people. Definitely not the people. I most sincerely wish I had an Ugly Doll, like the ones from the comic store in ( Read more... )
