Bald Jason's Musings


   Tuesday, November 29, 2005

Work was ok Sunday night. Except that Nate doesn't always cover his mouth when he coughs, and chews with his mouth open. He's fun to be around anyways & I still love him. lol I started feeling a bit odd that night, and I'm pretty sure I have a cold or something now. I'm not coughing or anything, but I'm congested, and miserable. I don't handle being sick very well; I mean, I'm a total pussy, when I'm sick - I wish that I was different in this aspect, but there are so many complications from being sick like this, with all my other problems that together I've just...blah. I don't even feel like writing. I have most of this week off, which I requested because I was in need of a break, but now I'm sick, which, time off will help with, but it won't be the deep relaxing thing that I had planned on. :-0( I'm on the verge of being depressed. I've already moved into whiney/mopey territory.

I had Monday off. I was intending to sleep today, and then dance like mad at Necto, but I think any violent head twirling would kill me right now, so I've had to pass again. I hate missing Factory Nights at Necto; I always feel so good after dancing, and the music is usually really good - plus there are any number of amusing people. I did sleep for a long time today though.

I rented the first 2 discs of the final Friends season last night, but I've already watched them. I only have 6-8 episodes left of that show; it doesn't seem like I've seen all 10 seasons so quickly, but I have. I'm tempted to give Joey a try after this, but I was thinking about the show - and I don't think any of them could hold a show on their own; they're all...kind of annoying, and it's only through the ensemble of them that they do as well as they do. I hate Rachel. Ross is so hung up on her, that he has become just as bad. Joey is stupid, and stupid humor doesn't usually make me laugh, but his friends' reactions make him funny. Phoebe(?) is amusing, and makes everyone else seem more amusing. Monica & Chandler are my favorites, but I don't think I'd want to see a show about them either. It doesn't help that so few people I know watch or enjoy Joey, or that none of the other "Friends" have visited his show. And I've read that the show hasn't done well at all, and will most likely be cancelled soon. whatever.

I need to eat. I might work on my webpage some more, or read. Trying to be comfortable is my main goal. lol I have to work tomorrow and I'm really not looking forward to it. I'm thinking that Wednesday night would be a good time to see Harry Potter with Mollie & Mark (and maybe DJ), but if I develope coughing/sneezing symptoms I'll just skip the movie altogether and let them enjoy it. I've grown to dislike the movie going experience over the years because of rude/loud people in the theater, and I find the coughing/sneezing people to be part of that group; I refuse to be that person. It's not like it's that horrible waiting for DVD. It used to be that I had great theater experiences almost every time, and now the opposite is true. I'm one of those people who needs people to be quiet, and not have their cell phones on - I need the movie experience to be about the movie itself, and not everyone else in the room, for me to enjoy it. I expect there to be some noise opening night, but after that - it's quiet time. And if you ask someone to be quiet in the theater you get all sorts of nasty reactions (one guy shot another guy downtown when he was asked to be quiet in the theater) - when according to the 'rules' layed out at the beginning of every movie - they shouldn't have been making noise in the first place. It's gotten to the point where I feel stressed about going to see most movies. I used to see movies all the time, and now I only go to the ones that I really, REALLY want to see. It's kind of sad, because before, I could see a movie and not know a lot about it, and really be surprised in the theater, but now I don't want to risk some shmuck ruining the experience for me, especially when I'm spending an obscene amount of money to see the show. It's like gambling, and I hate gambling. I hate setting myself up to have fun, and then losing money. I don't see the point of it. I want to see Harry Potter. I want to see Rent. I want to see Brokeback Mountain. A few years ago I might have seen Aeon Flux as well, but I don't want to see that enough to deal with stupid people. I'm torn on King Kong; but I'm thinking I'll probably wait for DVD. erg. The only 2 theater experiences in the last few years, that were outright fantastic, were X2, Serenity, and Fellowship of The Ring.

Ok - I'll go get that food now.
