So, the Hindu-Jewish wedding weekend. With extra nonsense for my most loyal fans.
I'm just now getting around to telling you about it.
It was good.
It was nice to get out of the city. Everything was so green. There was lots of grass. Think about it. In the midwest, there's all this grass, not being used for anything. Just kind of like wallpaper. And...

I am (should be) preparing for my trip to a Hindu-Jewish wedding this weekend. Well, the clothes are washing, anyway. Laundry time is the best time for an update.
It was awesome to see folks at the SGDC event last weekend. Hoo ray.
Okay, so I can't not talk about this. It's gotten me totally off my game. (I know I'm saying that too much...

But I like your nonsense! No other nonsense will do!

Click goes the remote, there you have my vote...
I'm opposed to Ann Arbor by dint of my biology. I'm sure it's lovely; I just never plan to find out (that and I'd never get into Michigan Law anyway
)
Have you been in DC long? I grew tired of living there eventually, but I really miss it pretty often now.

Hello all. I'm back. Basically, I've been spending my money on clothes and stuff. See everyone Saturday?

You lucky the party was over quickly after that... two more hours and you would have been walking home naked! Rematch this friday?
ara_cale:
Shh! Don't tell! You're ruining my pearls of wisdom! *giggles* It was really great meeting you chicadee, I'm glad I did! 
For those interested in the mostly-unwritten saga, I've finally finished my taxes (copying, stapling, and mailing aside). On other fronts, I am so tired this week. But I had beer for dinner, so that makes it okay. And none of this makes any sense.
hafu:
ah, the tiredness bug. i went through that last week.
good job with the taxes though. like to finish them rather last minute eh?
nothing wrong with a beer. i did one last night with a burger.

So I was in Candida's World of Books today. (DCers, that is an awesome store and I heartily recommend it to those who have not been there.) And there was a soft and fluffy dog the color of caramel with a liver-colored nose and a purple tongue. Maybe half chow or something. So friendly. Calm. I gave it some attention and it just followed me...

I have been soooooooooper busy recently--worked 12 hours yesterday and getting ready to work another 12 today. And this is my weekend! I'm tired already.
I wish I could have a big rubber dog toy to just chew on in the meeting... but that might attract extra attention. So I'll crochet instead and look like I care.
Have a lovely week.
And if you do...

I sat under the cherry trees, and now I am burnt.
I don't usually (and I'm generally content to be an observer to the weirdnesses of the world) but I have a soapbox. I have a rant. And--perhaps worst of all--it involves ART.
So I'm talking to my roommate who happens to be in the kitchen watching that between-movies crap on HBO and playing with the remaining spaghetti on his plate. And he asks me random...

arkane:
yeah, definetly next time let us know!
theinsomniac:
My two cents:
"Acting" is both a skill and a talent.
The true greats are those that are both blessed "by the hand of God" (as Professor Zerbe said it) with sheer talent, and who work hard to develop skill and technique.
Most actors are one or the other. Someone blessed with talent and who knows it, but does nothing to develop their skills beyond what they naturally posses vs. someone who works hard to develop skills, but lacks that spark of the divine.
Play group. Next month. Seriously.

Anyone see the moon tonight? It's a beautiful night for lunar howling. This is the first time since I moved to DC that I really wish I were in the country instead. Somebody with huge tracts of land please belt one out for me.

it was taken around natural bridge, it was beautiful out there.
Okay, hell of a week, kids.
Since you last heard from me my dad's been in and come home from the hospital. Turns out it's not a big deal, just high blood pressure and some sort of abnormality he's had since birth that has a talent for throwing off an EKG. But I had a very hard 24 hours there (which began on a Greyhound...

Thanks for coming out with me today. 
cheech:
Thanks, Dr Octological
Update.
I almost went a week (okay, 4 days) without turning on my computer at home. Weird but good.
I'm running away to New York again for the boy's birthday. Food, a show, maybe pancakes Sunday morning. Life is good.
I will probably come back excited about what a great time I had and sad I'm back in DC again. Boy-proximity-related mood swings best worked...

Hey I just wanted to say hi, as saint insomniac informed me it's get-to-know-you time. ....And I read your journal and you're pleasantly strange. So go you.
You're working at the Nat Opera in DC? I worked at the Kennedy Center a few years back....

So I didn't end up going out tonight. Truth is, I've felt like shit all week. I'm not sure if it's stress, the flu, or just irrational fear of change.
and, i'm on no pill right now, they really fucked me up, This couble period bullshit makes me want to try and see if the ring will work any better for mee.
