Last night at work was constantly busy; with mostly annoying people. I don't know what the deal was, but it sucked. After work I went to Walgreen's to get my perscription, then to Kroger to pick up some groceries, then to Aut Bar where I said goodbye to Jay, and hello to white Robert & blue haired Matt. It was really hot upstairs so I only stayed for a few minutes. I had a snack when I got home, and brushed my teeth. I read some magazines, and read some news online. I wrote Carrie an e-mail, and then I played some games. I started watching an episode of ALIAS but Mark said it was too loud, and I really didn't want to wear my headphones, because they hurt my ears sometimes. I played some more games, trying be as quiet as possible, and then noticed that my neighbors were fucking. I could hear their bed banging against the wall, and the girl moaning...and then later the guy moaning too after the bed stopped banging. It makes me smile to know people are having sex. ;-0)

Saturday night we picked up Jennifer from the airport, and took her to Pizza House (her choice. I had already eaten, so I abstained, and we later called her boyfriend Michael and he joined us at the condo for conversation and euchre; a fun time was had by all. It was great to see Jennifer again, and I think Michael is cool.

I want to get some exercise today. I'm starting to get tired though. Maybe I should turn down the air conditioning and go to bed?

I got to talk to Linda Marie today; even with all the drama and terror in our lives, it's always nice to talk with Linda. We're going to plan something fun. yay! ;-0) I have to try to contact Candace too...

I slept this morning, but Mark woke me up with a phone call, wondering if I had to work today. I had already told him that I didn't. I couldn't get back to sleep. I got up; I got the mail. Read a bunch of stuff, and watched some ALIAS. I finally got back to sleep around 5:30pm. The phone rang around 6pm, but I tried to ignore it; thinking it was probably Mark asking me if I needed anything from the store or something. The phone rang again, and I saw that it was Mark so I answered it; he asked if I was still asleep (in a completely disgusted tone, like I had slept all day), and I told him that his previous call had woken me up, and that I finally got back to sleep and he had woken me again. He needed a ride home from work, because he'd taken the bus - because he thought that I had to work today. So...I had to go pick him up. He can be really annoying, especially when I'm tired...but I love him, so I went and got him without complaint, and he apologised for ruining my day.

I ordered some movies from this place online, nearly a month ago, and I haven't gotten them. I've gotten really great service from these guys in the past, but the last time I ordered from them they sent me two copies of the same movie, and I had to send one back. That wasn't horrible or anything, but it was weird. I'm guessing that their little company is going through something, and they're probably way stressed out. I'm trying to be patient, and not get pissed off about it, because...what's the point in that?

I have a My Space account, and today I got this friend request from this girl. I've seen her maybe 4 times in my life. The first time I met her she was a bitch, but I was a bitch right back, so I overlooked that. The 2nd time I saw her, Mollie, Laurie & I had all gone dancing with her because her boyfriend/ex-bf was in the hospital, and we were all friends with him, and we knew it must be hard on her, and that she probably deserved a night out - she was a cunt to me all night long - to which I did not respond in kind. Later, when we went to get food, when she learned that I had been raped, she told me that I deserved it! The only thing that kept me from slapping her, or leaving her there was the thought of her boy Kevin dying in the hospital just a few blocks away. And after all that she didn't even stay to be there for him; she skipped town, and only returned for his showing at the funeral home. Maybe she's a great person now, or maybe she's growing as a person; I don't know. But she's had 3 chances to be my friend and she's fucked it up every fucking time, so why would she be asking me to be her friend now??? It's fucked up.

I wish Mollie had the internet.

My neighbors are fucking again; quite the happy couple. And they're morning people to boot. Or it's possible the guy was just jacking off or getting a blowjob because I didn't hear the girl this time, and the bed wasn't hitting the wall; just a lot of the guy moaning...or...maybe he has a guy over there. ;-0) Either way...hope springs eternal as long as the neighbors are screwing. Depending on how long they've lived there, they've probably heard me go at at plenty of times.

Work was mostly fun yesterday, with another visit from DM Gloria; she's fun. DJ is kicking ass on ANGEL. Bryan had an emergency dentist appointment so I stayed late at work. I was so tired after work, but when I got home I felt kind of wired so I ate and started the final season of Dawson's Creek with Mark, then we put together the free $300.00 chair we got with Mark's tv - it so rocks! It has all these features and I think it will help Mark & I with sore muscles, and the like. Very nice!

I went to bed later. I slept until about 2:30am. I read the news. I watched the new trailers for Superman Returns, the Pirates sequel, and the new Bond movie. About 20 minutes ago, I realized that I had 2 new messages on my voicemail; both from when I was sleeping. The first was from Jennifer, and she said that Michael was really upset about the weekend, and that they would probably break up tomorrow!?! Jennifer probably only called him this weekend because of the way I was talking to her; I hope I didn't fuck anything up; I thought we were all having a great time... Erg. It's possible that I don't know a lot of what happened later though. She also said that she let Chris know that she was in town. I used to think that Chris was really cool; just so...I don't know. I thought he & Jennifer would be together forever - only he stole all her money and did drugs with prostitutes - and he hurt her so bad. I understand her still loving him, but I want to be protective, you know? He hurt her really bad, and so I don't like him anymore. I left her a message; she sounded horrible. I hope she's ok. She told me she was moving back to Michigan because she'd been feeling suicidal. erg. I'm so worried now.

The other message was from Bradlee from Adrian. I saw him online the other night, and gave him my phone # and he said he'd call me last night, but I had told him what time I'd be home from work (7pm) so I figured he'd call me around then, only he didn't. I'm not mad or anything; it's not a big deal (at all) - but it just means we'll have to catch up and all that later on. ;-0)

I'm kind of tired again, and my eyes are sore, so I'm gonna try to stay away from the computer for a little while. Wish me luck.

Hung out with Robert, Bryan, Chris, Di, & Mark last night. Mollie couldn't make it because her period has morphed into an exclamation point. Had lots of laughter and fun. Went Aut bar briefly, then stopped by Robert Mitchel's place to give him some CDs. Bought some groceries. Talked to Jennifer on the phone. Michael and her are probably done, which is sad because he's a great guy, but it's probably for the best because she doesn't feel for him the way that he feels for her. Chris kissed her the other night and things were felt, but she knows that things there are really not great either (big & little problems abound). So we had lots of talking and the love was felt. ;-0)

I slept for a few hours but woke up thirsty and unable to get back to sleep. I drank some cranberry juice and got my hands on last night's ALIAS episode. OH MY GODDESS! This show... I really enjoyed it when it first aired, and then it just kept getting better. Season 2 was the bomb, mostly due to the fantastic integration of Lena Olin as Irina Derevko. Seasons 3 & 4 were a mixed bag for me, with enough good to great episodes to keep me hooked, but with enough mediocrity to feel the show was slipping, plus I discovered 1 huge continuity flaw which has forever tainted the show for me, because the "really smart" characters on the show talk about this flaw in continuity in depth for many episodes, when they should all know right off that it doesn't make any sense. And the final nail in the ALIAS coffin was the Season 5 premiere which sucked - but I still gave it another chance with the following episode, but for me the magic was gone and I stopped watching. Later I heard that the show had been cancelled, and I decided I would watch the 7 episodes that I had missed (while the show was on hiatus for Jennifer Garner's maternity leave) and found that not only had the series bounced back and shown improvment, but that by the time I got to that 7th episode the series was back in 5 star territory. For starters, the series really started to feel like Season 1 again, with the introduction of some new blood, but even beyond that, some old plot lines, tons of past show continuity, and familiar faces began to appear. But I still wasn't sure if the show could end well, because the network cut the season down from 22 episodes (the number of episodes in every previous season) down to 17. I read that the writers had a plan to end the show, but I've read that shit before from mythology & continuity heavy shows before and been burned (Remember when X-Files was good? And as much as I love Joss, and I do GET the ending of Angel - it's still not satisfying to me). But...and this is amazing to me - 4 episodes have aired since then, and they have all been amazing! Pulling together all the strands of story that I never really expected them to pay off on!! And much of this has been shocking, and well acted, and fun, and just...wow. I'm stunned. And it's just so refreshing to have the impression that the writers and actors are pulling out all the stops for the final stream of episodes. The show is fantastic again; it's Season 2 good again - and I think it's time for the show to end, and I'm so dying to see what happens next. Hopefully the end will not disappoint.

I have to go; Mark wants to tell me something.

So I had some really wacky dreams last night. The part I remember is that I was playing Diablo, only then I was actually inside the game, and fighting off this big monster with my magic; I switched weapons/armor for fun, but then somehow the monster got them from me which meant that now the freezing cold environment was now killing me. The monster disappeared with my magics, and I and my adventurer girlfriend (she's a rogue), found the only shelter in this plain of ice and snow and freezing wind - it was a house in the middle of nowhere, with no door in the doorway; just a sheer, tattered curtain of cloth (because moments ago this place had been like Florida, but I had been using my magics to freeze the fucker who now had my powers). The walls of the place didn't keep that much cold out because the wind was pouring in through the door. I could actually see my 'life bar' at the bottom my view fading away as the cold was killing me! The house was bare of furnishing save a few chairs. We starting pushing the chairs through the snow that had collected on the floor - getting them to the doorway to try to help block the wind...and then it was like in a movie when they fade to black and fade back in to show that time has passed and then I was watching this happen to other characters, and it was Xena who had just been through all this and Gabrielle had helped take care of her until the storm passed. The movie was a sequel to the show, and everyone was alive again, and I was really excited to see this movie, and I was so happy that I was crying. And then I woke up. lol

I'm in such a good mood. I just finished eating some garlic bread, which I fucked up, but I don't care. My Entertainment Weekly, which usually comes on Saturday, hasn't arrived yet, but I think that maybe the last issue was a double one... hmmm. I'm ok with that. Mark is being really quiet in his room; I think he might be sleeping, but his door is closed so I can't tell for sure. I know he's home because when I got the mail and the car was here, and I can't imagine him taking the bus anywhere on the weekend. Maybe we'll take the bus later so I can finally get a handle on what that's like; I've never taken the city bus, and Mark's offered to show me how - it probably sounds stupid, but I think it will a lot of fun. Last week I just didn't feel like doing it, but if Mark is up to it later, then maybe today is the day. ;-0)

I talked to Mollie, and she said that the Buffy board game would be fun on Wednesday so hopefully that holds up and DJ finally gets to play the game. I have no plans today. Some more movies came in the mail for my GLBT shelf; I've been ordering a lot of them again, but I keep finding all these great prices... I'm not going to order any today. 3 arrived today. "Slice of Terror", "The Hotel New Hampshire" & (hangs head in shame) "Showgirls". lol I actually want to see Showgirls again. I saw it June 7, 1996 with Paul at his apartment. I remember the day because it was the day after I graduated, and 2 days after Mark moved to Florida. I remember that the movie was really bad, but that I liked Gina Gershon - I remember the main girl from Saved By The Bell - I remember her body kind of freaked me out - there was something creepy about it. lol And I also remember her throwing up at the start of the movie for no reason which I didn't understand. lol Anyways, that should be amusing.

I think I'm actually going to go shower & shave. I haven't really been shaving close lately, and I'm sick of this stubble. blah.

So today is Friday, and not Saturday, and I was super late for work, but they were mostly dead and everyone laughed at me. But I didn't care. I had a great day. Mark wanted me to shopping with him after work, but I just didn't feel like it. I'm chilling. I'm watching ALIAS. I still feel really good about my day, and DJ, Mollie & I are all on for Buffy this Wednesday. Oh, and I apparently only work 2 days this week, even though I told DJ I could work Wednesday - I think my not working has to do with DJ being stressed about the schedule, and also us being way over on labor. Maybe I can cover someone's shift or something though. Or maybe something really cool will happen this week, and I'll be too busy. ;-0)

I'm recording L Word episodes for Mollie. Hopefully later I'll be awake enough to go on a little adventure with Mark; my eyes hurt right now, but I can't get to sleep. I work tomorrow night. I have Monday-Thursday off. Tuesday night I'm going to The Blind Pig to see Hypnogaja play. Mollie, Mark, Bryan & Chris are all going. I should invite Linda. Wednesday Mollie & DJ are coming over the play the Buffy board game. Thursday I have a dentist appointment, and I'll also record an ALIAS tape for Carrie. I work on Friday. And I have Saturday off.

I'm hungry, and since I can't sleep, I'm gonna eat.

Well, I was recording L Word episodes for Mollie, but then my vcr decided it didn't want to anymore. I hope the tape is just defective. I'll clean the vcr later just to be sure, but I'm leaving it turned off for a few hours to cool down. erg. I was really hoping to have most of those done today so I could get them to Mollie ASAP.

I slept today. It was great. A few days ago, a friend asked me what I did on my day off, and when I told him I slept he said that was a shame because it had been a beutiful day outside. I told him that I don't like going out in the sun, and to not feel bad for me, because it was a beautiful night. I enjoyed the sun when I was little, but I also enjoyed playing in the snow and drinking chocolate milk from a baby bottle. I've outgrown a lot of stuff, and the sunshine thing is just one of them. I don't regret that in any way. But it's not like I'm phobic of the sun. I do go out in the daytime, but I have very sensitive skin, and I can't tell you how annoying it is to have to shave your head when it's burnt. I'm not opposed to sunblock, but I hate smelling like sunblock. I don't mind carrying an umbrella in the sun when I need to. Someone once suggested that the reason I look so young is because I don't smoke, or drink heavily, and I avoid the sun. And there might be something to that because I don't use Oil of Olay; I don't even scrub my face, so much as stand in the spray - my skin is really sensitive and if I scrub it I dry out and break out. Anyways... I slept today, and for anyone who was thinking it; I don't regret missing the sun. Mark said it was kind of chilly out anyways.

I wish I was engrossed in a really good book. I was reading some Star Wars books a few weeks ago, and they were fun, but I want a book to come out that's an event; something I've been waiting for, like a new DS9 book, or Harry Potter or something like that...those kinds of books are great.

I was going to record more L Word for Mollie while I ate, but Mark is watching ER and it would screw up the recording. Which leaves me with no plans. It's kind of pathetic, but I enjoy staying home quite a lot lately. I still need to invite Linda to Hypnogaja. I'll do that now.
