Home Again, Home Again, Jigga Jig Jig
Monday, June 30th, 2008I rolled into the driveway shortly after 11 a.m. after having left Wisconsin Saturday morning.
I hugged my dad, hugged on Dorian Gray, ate a quick bit then passed out for about 3 hours.
More on the trip later, but here are some tidbits:
Got to see two people I haven’t seen in years: A.J., who I went [...]
The (Un) Happy Hangover
Tuesday, June 24th, 2008I have a hangover today.
Not from drinking alcohol or anything illegal.
From eating far too many carbs last night at the Mexican joint.
The only thing I can compare it to is the dry-ice hangover that one gets after spending all night in a club with the dry-ice machine going full-tilt.
The stuffy nose. The inability to concentrate [...]
Saying Goodbye…
Tuesday, June 24th, 2008Tonight was the first of my going away dinners - Mexican with two men from work, both of whom are absolute pervs and both of whom I adore. They made me giggle like a little girl even though I felt like hurling because I’d eaten far too much. Most girls would probably have been offended [...]
The Saddest Thing of All
Thursday, June 19th, 2008Today I discovered that I’ve been without health insurance since the first of June. Even though I complain about not having health insurance, I do carry a major medical policy in the event of something catastrophic.
Anyway, I periodically check my banking for any erroneous charges and in today’s perusal discovered my June premium had been [...]
Fancy Schmancy Weekend
Tuesday, June 17th, 2008After taking some time to hibernate, I actually spent this past weekend outside enjoying the beautiful weather. I’ll be down in the insane heat of Florida in about two weeks so I just had to take advantage of the more temperate climate.
At any rate, my morning started off by taking a walk down to [...]
Welcome to the Nuthouse
Monday, June 9th, 2008I’m not sure what’s going on, but my anxiety level has been pretty bad lately - not the “hide in the house until it passes” variety, but it’s been enough to set my teeth on edge.
To counterbalance the anxiety, though, I got my first home cooked food today in the form of mac & cheese.
It [...]
New Writing Added
Saturday, June 7th, 2008I just added a link to a new piece on Triond.
Check out London for Book Lovers.
Damn, Foiled Again!
Wednesday, June 4th, 2008Well, my dreams of accosting Patrick Stewart at the side door after the performance of Hamlet have been squashed. As it turns out, the show is sold out.
The resulting text conversation with Cactus Girl went something like this:
Me: It appears that Hamlet is already sold out. :-(
CG: Sad. It wouldn’t let me get tix. [...]
This is the Very Ecstasy of Love
Tuesday, June 3rd, 2008The reality of heading to Scotland in just over three months is finally beginning to set in - barring any snafus with my visa (which has yet to be applied for) I’ll be leaving NYC the beginning of September.
As it turns out, one of my best friends, Cactus Girl, will be in London around the [...]
What Hope Feels Like
Monday, June 2nd, 2008This weekend has been fairly quiet - I spent the vast majority of yesterday moving two scripts over to Celtx on the mac and making sure the formatting was good. One of these days I may actually get around to doing some editing.
The rest of the time I’ve spent lying around watching chick flicks and [...]
