Burlesque show tonight!! I hope I'll see you all there. I'll probably be hanging around Sid most of the time (when she isn't busy) so just look for the short girl with the pink hair twisted into fake dreds and possibly a black bandanna and big boots and you'll find me somewhere nearby.
Good and bad things going on these days. I got lectured at work yesterday for what seemed like two hours because my boss was freaking out about the project I am working on. It's not due for three weeks and I thought I was making pretty decent progress but he feels I don't have a plan and that I'm underestimating the scope of the problem. I feel that he is over-reacting. The truth is somewhere in between. I appreciate his bluntness and honesty but it still really sucked to have to listen to him tear me apart all morning. He's a great guy and really intelligent, but he is a ball of stress all the time. I know a lot of my coworkers have issues with him and I think I might be the only one who still really likes him. Perhaps it's because I've had many bad managers in the past and I know what the alternatives are. I'm hoping if I can get this project on time and without a hitch and can win back his respect and he won't think I'm the irresponsible bum he seems to think I am now.
I found a new roommate. That was such a HUGE relief. She gave me a deposit on Friday so there is no backing out now
. She's kind of cute, actually, and yes, I know that is a *bad thing*. But those of you who remember Margaret should remember that it wasn't the fact that she was my roommate that led to problems, it was because she was crazy. Well, my new roommate is going to be moving in on Saturday so there is a lot of work I need to do on the place to make it ready for her. I'm going to put up a new light fixture in her room and clean out the living room and pantry. I'll also hang the new medicine cabinets in the bathroom.
I don't feel like talking about Sarah2 right now even though there are stories to tell. I'll just say that I was only really upset for 2 days. Damn, antidepressants -- I used to be able to stay down for weeks at a time! I saw her at Ceremony on Monday night and we sort of talked. Things seem to be kind of back to normal for now, although we probably need to finish that conversation at some point.

Good seeing you @ the Middle East, even if it was for two minutes. How was the Northampton show? Rumor has it there weren't a lot of members there. Was the view of the stage was any better?
