This was an exciting weekend, all things considered. Went to go see E, aka the Birthday Girl, on Friday... Saturday I hung out with the lovely December at my favorite martini bar, then did an interview that got cut short due to technical difficulties (and yet it took 3 times as long, due to trying to get back on the line), then I enjoyed yet...

What's a UU?

I'm with Hansel.
Things are proceeding more or less normally now. Nothing great, nothing horrible. 2 weeks till Montreal, which means I need to hurry up and finish my presentation this week. That panics me a little, which keeps the excitement about traveling under control. I've also decided now is the time that I need to start getting rid of stuff. A lovely recliney chair, maybe a papasan,...

I don't know them, but I am looking for something fun to do tonight. (unless I just decide to stay home and watch a movie or something...) I have to get up early to get my ass to Corvaliis tomorrow for the Beaver game!
Yesterday was a much better day. Got a good subject to blog on at work, got some effusive compliments on my blogging style, bonded with my new manager, traffic was clear, my favorite pen mysteriously started working again, took a vegan breakfast cooking class (which also meant sampling some delicious baked goods and stuff), and then caught up on talking and snuggles.

This is the girl who is a CNA where my grampa is living. Our third date. She's smitten, but I am too. I'm just a little concerned about her Jehovah's Witness background. She's definitely not that conservative, but there are elements that are still there.
recoveringmale:
your hair is lookin' good these days.
Highlights of the two days since I've been back:
Old problems with a formerly close friend rear their ugly head again, decide I'm not gonna have any sort of b-day thing now that I'm back.
Wake up yesterday, discover a nastygram from my apartment complex over $10 they forgot to charge me at the beginning of the month.

Gondry movies might actually be theraputic, as they get your brain thinking in creative ways. "Eternal Sunshine" is life-affirming in a weird way. I have high hopes for the new one.
catdad:
That's kind of a fucked up day. Today was probably better. Tomorrow, too.
I was kind afraid that this birthday was gonna kinda suck ass, since things weren't going according to my usual plans. I decided to come to Eugene to try and salvage things as well as get a little vacation, but I kinda figured I'd be a big ol' mopey mess under it all. And yet somehow that hasn't even materialized a little. I went out...

I've been really busy lately. I finally achieved my certified strength and conditioning specialist credidation so I'm all set. I'm still dealing with family issues though, it wears on me sometimes. I'm looking forward to Hawaii, flying first class too!

Let's see if I can recount all the crap that's happened in the last 3 days. Tuesday, found out coworker's mother was killed by a hit&run driver. Found out said coworker had scheduled a presentation that he was not going to be able to do. I offered my services, booked a flight to LA for the next day and whipped up a new and improved...

Today was a day of fun and adventure, hooray. 
Last night was a night of drinking and eating sugary things which led to a very, very sick me at about 3 in the AM. Which led to nightmares and general queasiness till I gave up on sleep at 8. Sat around reading and keeping the queasy at bay for a while till my friends called...

Give a shout the next time you're headed to Seattle, OK? I'd love to hang out. You don't even have to dress up as a pirate this time.
wakeangel:
Oh man, you got to cuddle? Damn, I need some cuddle action. Oh well, sucks to be picky but... Sounds like you had some fun though.
Everything still is calm and contented here. I'm happy to see people seem to be coming back out of the woodwork. Must be the return of fall weather. Suddenly I want to clean and redecorate. Nesty.

I'm so proud of you finally getting your colon back so you can now make faces... though, you'll have to find another way to make me guffaw.

yeah... it seems like every other day this chick is saying how she's going to baltimore for a job offer (yeah, a job offer working door at a venue... ooooo!), or moving to vegas, or how she never wants a relationship, or how she now suddenly wonders why she's so lonely, or how this band is the greatest EVAR! no, this band is. Wait... what? Now she's vegan. Now she's not. I have no idea why I tried dating her for as long as I did...

Sounds promising.
Today's been thoroughly exciting. Went out west looking for a bedskirt, got bored/tired and gave up that pursuit in the face of unbelievable crowds. Got a bug up my butt to get out of the heat, to give my poor nose a rest (turns out I got yet another sinus infection, and am on yet another round of antibiotics, woo!) so I went to the...

dempsey:
here's a trick to make your own bedskirt: go find a fabric you like, maybe something cool or unusual, then measure the height from the floor to the top of the box spring. double that, then maybe add 10-12 inches (maybe more, depending on how much you think it may take to keep it in place). Now get some of the fabric in that height (and if possible, long enough to wrap your bed... but if not, you can do it in a few pieces), fold it over once, then tuck it under the mattress, so that it hangs to where you'd like your skirt to stop. It's usually cheaper then a bed skirt and you'll be able to make it look any way you want without much work.

whatever are you talking about? 
It feels really good to be socializing again. Went out not once but twice this weekend to celebrate BrokenBeatnik's b-day, and then last night briefly, to help my friend celebrate getting her dream-job.
