This week has been out to get me.
Dean drops out.
Courts hearing a case to reopen Roe Vs. Wade.
The Avalanche go not only on a losing streak, but on a getting-ass-raped streak. Um, guys? I know we don't like Barry Melrose to be right about anything, but when he says you're the best team in the NHL, you really don't have to set...

do you believe in love at first sight? or before? ever felt like you knew someone after just seeing a picture of them on someone's desk, in a yearbook, in the newspaper?
ever dream about people repeatedly when you haven't seen them in years?
have you ever thought about someone for the first...

dreaming up a face you have never seen before and then seeing that person later on in life is freaky...

Today was one of those up and down days. Everything had a good and bad side. I guess, such is life, though, right?
So here's life plan for the moment:
Work at New Voter's Project until Bush is GONE! (Second interview next Tuesday. Keep those fingers crossed.)
Marry Alex Tanguay (yeah, I know, I don't believe in marriage and all that. Whatever. He's so cute...

I found what always gave me reservations about dean!I don't trust politicians, and I love me some Freedom of Information Act!
Reagan and Bush, Jr. are the people who've done the most to fuck up the FOIA, and I suspect Dead would do the same.

That business about Kerry being funded by the media SUCKS!
Today: Job Interview. Keep your fingers crossed for me.
Houseparty for Dean.
and then: Avalanche Game!
(If you didn't watch Iron Jawed Angels last night, you should've.)

So... how did the interview go?
And I hope you're having fun at the game. Without me.

Go to [MEMBER=Consuela's] journal and watch her Bush bashing movies . They are pretty damn funny , in a sad kinda' way . 
Once again, I fall back on "What Would Joan Jett Do?"
Joan Jett would tell her boss to stuff it, put on her Howard Dean shirt (and yes, she is a Dean supporter), some big black boots and eye makeup, and go downtown to stand on the steps of the state building and join the "DON'T AMEND" rally protesting this ridiculous Federal Marriage amendment idea....

We're getting jobs lady. We've been looking too long.

I have to get up pretty early so I don't get to see the Kings unless they are playing on the east coast and I miss half the Colorado and Pheonix games. Sometimes I miss part of the first period for the Eastern teams. But as long as I get to see some hockey, I wont gripe!
I hate today.
highlights: bill from my bitch ex-landlady for all the cleaning she claims I didn't do. this after making me pay rent for a month that I wasn't there, and bitching me out for not giving her the keys at the beginning of said month that I wasn't there.

Phil Sauve makes a really cute Wonder Woman.
If you didn't watch The Season on ESPN, you should've.
I got a call for a job interview with the New Voters' Project. Who wants to testify that I should get that job??
Tomorrow is Friday the 13th. Which is a WAY cooler holiday than Valentine's Day. I'm getting my hair cut and eyebrows waxed and will...

I almost have mixed feelings; after the UN dog-and-pony show, part if me was pissed at Bush for the humilation, but part of me figures that Powell knows where the door is.
I'll write you a letter of rec anytime.

Since I'm too incoherent to write a whole journal entry, here ya go.
1. I had a hot makeout dream about Alex Tanguay last night. My gods, people, I need to get some.

you know what would be crazy. if the blues beat the avs tonight. it would be the biggest win so far because we have been playing like garbage lately. i might throw a party if the win tonite , but im not keeping my hopes up. i had a dream about getting into bar fights with reid low. we kicked some ass.
elzig:
i live in new york now. i used to have season tickets in st louis. i just bought tckets to a game in march against the islanders. it should be pretty crazy going to a game in new york with my jersy on. i hope i survive. my prediction is 3-2 blues victory . big come back in the 3rd period. i miss going to games. they dont have alot of games on tv up here either. the games on tv tonite so i going to warn my neighbors about the noise.
I need to stop watching movies that break my fucking heart.
it's got enough cracks.
The 25th Hour is responsible for it tonight.
I care too much about too many things, I think. I need to curl up in a hole and let the world run itself for a couple of days.
you all understand, right?

I'm more optimistic about the labor situation than I should be. I can't imagine that the owners would be stupid enough to think that a lenghty lockout is in their interests, but then you never go broke overesitimating the stupidity of NHL owners...

I saw the 25th Hour with two friends, I enjoyed parts of it. The part where his father is thinking/explaining what they could do is what they disliked but what I enjoyed the most.
I am still undecided on which Democratic canidate I like, but since it seems Kerry is going to be the nominee, I guess I will start trying to get people to go out and vote for November.
I think the labor situation in the NHL will lead to Ottawa, Edmonton, Pittsburgh, and Carolina ceasing operations.

Do you ever feel terribly conflicted about who you are? Of course you do, right? We all do. We all want to be pretty and loved and taken care of and spend our time sitting around primping and spend all of our money on clothing, be smiley and nice and never offend anyone and have everyone talk about how "sweet" we are. And yet I...

You know, I do often feel conflicted about who I am... one of the things about my life is that those around me (my friends) have a pretty set-in-stone sense of who "Damien" is, and I wonder sometimes whether I'm just conforming to that because it's easy and expected of me... anything I do gets filtered through that expectation. I wonder how much bearing the perceptions of me have on who I really am, whether my "identity" is just a comfortable mask that I've grown into.
Expectations are a mixed blessing. I don't really care what oeople think of me by and large, but when I quit drinking for a few weeks and everybody laughed in my face... "oh, you're on the wagon, huh? I'm sure that'll last..." it was disconcerting. I mean, who am I? Who is this person that I've become, and how much say do I get in the matter?
This is why relocating is nice... a chance to start fresh, without any preconceptions.

Yeah, so far (six months into it) I like being single. I definitely have those "oh christ, I'm gonna die alone and unloved" moments, but all in all compared to the unbelievably painful relationship I gave the last six years of my life to (I pretty much dated Sylvia Plath-- brilliant, mesmerising, passionate, actively self-destructive & suicidal), singledom is worth the pangs of loneliness.
It's not a particularly constructive approach to life-- hey, pets die and that hurts, so why have pets? relationships can be difficult, so why have relationships?-- but after an initial period of awkward post-breakup "dating" I've settled comfortably into long-term aloneness. I figure somebody will come along eventually, or won't, and the freedom I feel compared to my single friends who are constantly in pursuit of love, or my friends stuck in sexless marriages or fucked-up relationships that suck their souls, seems like a bargain.
I find the poetry of Phil Larkin very consoling... he was a misanthrope (and unfortunately a bunch of other worse things, but whatever, I just dig his poetry), and wrote beautifully about the melacholy pleasures of aloneness.
Christ I'm sorry for this depressing entry. Meant to be reassuring. Anyway fuck "settling," that's no good at all.

anyway, my point is...i'm trying to think if i actually have one. i liked what you said and it's the exact reason why mcqueen and i are working on a bro code for the ladies.
hope that made sense. and it's late and i'm tired, but i thought you brought up some really good points. and i like the way you put it all down.
fuck i'm tired. sorry.
