I did get some sleep on Sunday; enough to enjoy the day. After I woke I chatted with Michael, and then later, Chris. Mark & I went for a walk, which thankfully did not involve any mudslides or blood loss. We wandered the blocks of houses in the area, pointing out the oddities of the buildings and trees; enjoying the look of our world from a new angle. It was a good time, but the cold air on my ears and jaw gave me a headache. I took some midrin and some prilosec when we got home then we went to Little Caesars, where the food was better than I expected. We've been going to that Little Caesars for 12 years, so we know a lot of the people that work there, and it was nice to chat with them.

The combination of the drugs and the large (for me) meal made me feel like I was flying. Sometimes when I combine food with my pills they hit me a lot harder, though I've never really nailed down exactly what combination brings that sensation on. I went from having horrible head pain, to feeling like I was flying. Mark realized that he had forgotten his wallet so we headed back home for that.

We went to Hillards for water and wine. Michael was just going on his break so he wandered and chatted with us. It was nice. Later, he rang us up, and when we left I thought we might hug, though we didn't. It felt like we were going to though. I invited Michael & Chris to come over if they got their studies done in time. After I loaded up the car, I pushed my cart back inside and was shocked to see Nate (Michael's old friend, and my ex-bf Paul's ex-bf. lol) talking to Michael. He saw me though he didn't return my wave. Whatever. Michael later told me that he didn't know that Nate was there, but that he just turned around and there he was.

We went to Meijer, but I was too 'stoned' to leave the car. We went to Kroger. We came home. I got a myspace message from Sean Mobley, telling me stuff I can't repeat here, but it boiled down to him needing to touch base on the phone, so I responded then gave him a call. We had a fun conversation, though he was a bit out of it. It's always great to hear from him, and be there for him. He raved about Lady Gaga and about a mashup he wanted but couldn't find (which I tracked down in like 5 minutes). He talked about his new sort-of-boyfriend Dillon. About his coworkers and his issues. It was a great conversation with a lot of fun, and some honest emotion. I had to let him go so he could sleep.

While I was on the phone with Sean I got messages from Bobby, Michael & Chris. M&C couldn't make it over as it was pretty late and they needed to head to bed. Bobby went to sleep shortly thereafter as well.

Oh. And I fell in love with this song. It's like a lesbian sequel to Katy Perry's "I Kissed a Girl". This one is by Jen Foster and it's called "I Didn't Just Kiss Her". You can hear it on her myspace page.

I'm working on a list of the things that I liked and disliked about the finale of BSG, which I'll probably post when it's done. I read an article that talked about the extended cut, and from what was revealed there I'm going to really enjoy all the new bits which feature flashbacks explaining how the Boomer / Chief relationship started, how Helo came to like Boomer, + a scene where Chief & Kara confront Adama. Those scenes won't fix the things I dislike about the finale, but they'll add a lot of stuff that I do like, and that's cool.

After all the chatting ended, I surfed the net until I could barely keep my eyes open. It was about 6am. I read a few chapters of Robotech, which I'm enjoying a great deal. It's like spending time with old friends. Perhaps I'll expand my Robotech page. Hmmm.

I slept until about 1pm. I got to chat with Mark for a bit before he went to work, then I read more news. Played a game, and then wrote this.

One of those news items I found was this one, which almost makes me want to start collecting GLBT movies again. If I had the money I would. It was a similar piece about Alexander that inspired me last time. Even if I don't throw myself into the fray, there are several GLBT inclusive titles I'm looking forward to owning: 'Nick & Nora's Infinite Playlist', 'Watchmen', 'Were the World Mine' spring to mind, though there are are many more.
