Back to curly hair and work. Sigh.
Oooof.
So apparently, I look totally wild with straight hair. People literally don't recognize me, or totally freak out, but generally love it. As the waiter at Mellow Yellow told my friends, "I thought she was cute before, but now it's like DAMN!"
Aside from the fact that there's no way in hell that I'm gonna spend 90 minutes on my hair on any kind...

You look sexy regardless!!! 
dunx:
But hey, it's like you always said: Cute, Nice, or Smart, right? Or is it funny instead of nice? No, I think it's nice.
But yeah we got all 3. or 4.

Me, John and Dan played Mario 2 until 3 am last night. It was totally sweet. Even though we didn't beat the game. Our 10 year old selves would be mortified if they saw how much our skills have, um, declined. Then again, our 10 year old selves weren't high on pain killers. Sucks for them!
Thanks for the all well-wishes. Surgery went fine, I'm hope hobbling around, in surprisingly little pain. I'm a little bummed that I'm gonna have to wear this damn knee brace for 6 weeks though.

Knee injuries are some of the most painful, but it can be taken care of thru good meds. Sorry you're hurting so much. Will somebody be there to take good care of you? Hope so. YOu know I would gladly cook your meals and run your bath (and of course wash your back) and even provide Therapy for the new knee. Now am I a great guy or what?
Under the knife.

Ooof. Still overworked. But I took a break today, and went and picked up this couch that I bought from a student here. It was quite an adventure; me and some friends wheeled it the 4 blocks to my place on top of a shopping cart. Luckily the weather was nice. I love the new couch. Upon getting it upstairs, we all sat down, took...

So there's this one scene in the book where these friends are having dinner, and one of them raises points out that it's been a year since their friend was killed in a car accident - and everyone thinks he's a dick for pointing it out.
I think the characters generally aren't as empty as they behave - bear in mind the ever-present drug use - but they behave the way they do because that's how you fit in here. Which is a stupid notion in itself, because I don't think there's a person alive who couldn't fit in in a city of 16+ million people. It's more that I'm noticing all these people in my LA life are just absent when things get uncomfortable or difficult, and I don't blame them for it. I've bought into the game, because if you don't you get hurt - but I'm not convinced it's the way people should be.
I've just been trying to figure out exactly what it is I believe - and though I haven't come up with many answers, it's a very rewarding process. (The robot inside me is having a lot of trouble with the fact that questions, without answers, are rewarding)
I feel like I should be in a philosophy class at Reed, and that makes me want to shoot myself. Or writing a book, which again makes me want to shoot myself. I'm just inclined to the Arts and Humanities, while finding most artists and ... humanitarians (?) repulsive. It's odd.
Oh my, this got long. Anyway, I know this all sounds very crisis-like and depressed, but I'm really doing quite well. At least, I'm happy a lot of the time I'm sober, which is pretty good for me.

Shaolin vs. Evil Dead turned out not to be that great, to my complete shock. There wasn't nearly enough kung-fu, which was a big problem, and the plot was completely bizarre and somewhat incoherent, which is ok, I guess, but it just wasn't that entertaining. I was reflecting to myself that perhaps this movie disproves my earlier claim that watching a movie, any movie, is...

Oh my god, I can't think anymore. Ugh.
Tonight: Shaolin vs. Evil Dead. I suspect that it will be fucking fantastic.

That does sound fantastic.
Overworked and underfed. One paper down, two to go.
Something terrible has happened to my car. I don't know what, but it's very, very sad right now. I swear to god, the one time that I do a shitty job parallel parking (by which I mean, I'm 6 inches from the curb instead of 3. If you don't think that's shitty, it's because you don't know how to parallel park.) the car won't start....

well... outside of car troubles, papers galore and impending knee surgery (ouch!) ... how's things?
ginny:
You're totally right. Wolfy ate kibble because we got him here in Canada, but my parents were always buying 60 dollars worth of meat to make it into a stew for him. My uncle's dog in Poland is fed scraps--and, of course, the odd omelet or bun soaked in milk for breakfast. Wolfy would not eat doggie treats if someone offered them to him--he only liked kielbasa--and not the cheap american knockoff stuff either. Adele (now named Adelcia by my parents, or Bzdziagwa by my dad) is quickly learning all about that as well.
The big news: I'm getting knee surgery on March 16th. They're finally gonna fix my right knee for real, hopefully. I'm seriously dreading being incapacitated and dependent for awhile, but I figure at least it'll be a good chance to take a break and watch a lot of movies. Feel free to recommend some.
Of other news, I started a new blog, which you can...
