some news of my life:
- buttons died, but this happened a long time ago. it was over winter break and someone else was taking care of him. sachi asked me once, a while before it happened, "would you cry if he died?" and i said "no."
- i've been given a sort-of promotion at work (volunteer-ship?) - i get to do skinning now. on wednesday i skinned a squirrel. it's kind of exhilirating to pull an animal's guts out with your bare hands. also, after you skin something it looks reallllllly creepy, and a word of advice from my boss: "just... try not to puncture the eye. it's not really a big deal if you do, it's just kind of messy."
- being single is weird. i find myself being surprisingly forward. to the men-types, that is. it's, oh my god i didn't think i'd ever say this, it's kind of fun.
- i think i am still drunk from last night.
- i am actually really really excited that my parents are coming in a couple weeks for the show. like, so excited that i feel kind of nerdy about it. i just want to clean my house and plan tours of the city for them. i already bought them a "chicago" magnet which i will present to them at the airport.
- i'm doing paintings of my dog. he is awesome, i miss him a lot.
- the weather is unreal. i might go to the park later and do some reading. you all need to understand how nice it is to go outside here without there being a -15 degree windchill.
also, i found my old livejournal - it is hours of amusement.
