shananigans

I went and saw Sucker Punch and Red Riding Hood yesterday. Armed with some beer (thanks for opening early Beer Revolution) and popcorn, I made it through two movies (tried for a 3rd but that movie theater is small and they almost spotted my movie-hopping)

General thoughts, obviously Sucker Punch was visually stimulating and daring but the trope of BabyDoll's "missions" coinciding with her "dancing"...

So I'm on Spring Break this week which means a lot of sleeping and laying in bed but I'm definitely doing some movies at Jack London tomorrow ($5 movie Tuesdays!) and First Friday in Oakland. Any other (cheap!) suggestions?

I am THE WORST at keeping up here. I really should have my account taken away.

My life is not that exciting. I moved out of my apt and now I live with roommates (a decision I regret on a bi-weekly basis). I remain perpetually broke but at least now the reason I'm broke is because I'm saving money to travel. And finally, I've been...

So I know they say life never gives you more than you can handle but I'm seriously questioning the validity of that little adage. As if bedbugs, consistent lack of money and the general personal and professional shittiness of my life weren't enough, the ONE THING that gives me joy (my television) just fell over and cracked today. And I got a shiny sliver of...

Ten days until my 27th birthday! (not sure if the exclamation point belongs there)

I just finished my detox and now I'm trying to ease back into eating heavier stuff. I'm feeling the itch for a change (could also be the massive amount of cleaning I'm doing too, my house is dusty). I'm trying to decide if I should shell out and get my hair...

I don't know if you've heard but currently, our country is in crisis. Not a day goes by without me picking up a paper to find out who's been screwed over that day. If people are not getting laid-off, their kids are being subjected to harsh cuts to their educational...

So I'm in a bit of a funk today. I just found out that one of my all time favorite places in Oakland, The Parkway, is closing. The first day that I moved to Oakland, my friend invited me out to the movies and we hit the Parkway. It was great. I was super tired and slept through the movie but before I fell...

So it's been over a year since I've been on SG. (Shout outs to whoever reactivated my account!) It was a good time for me not to be on SG. I was dealing with a lot of drama, financially and personally. I'm very much so single, somewhat happily. I'm considering moving to LA since more and more of my people are migrating there. Either there...
