Bald Jason's Musings
Tuesday, January 2, 2007
Mollie is apparently ok. She sent us all an e-mail Sunday night. This is good news, if it's true. She says she & her brother are looking for a new apartment, and that they won't be living in 'that house'. I hope she's really ok.
I've worked the last two days...and will work today, and the next 3. That's unusual for me.
Last night I saw the pilot for the new Doctor Who spin-off: The Sarah Jane Adventures. It was called "Invasion of the Bane", and it's aimed more at kids, but I still enjoyed it, and it had clear ties to both Doctor Who, and Torchwood. The actual series won't start airing in the UK until later in the year; I hope it's successful.
Torchwood has a been a huge success there, and I also so the final 2 episodes of the first season last night. WOW. The series has been something of a mixed bag, which is understandable for a first season sci-fi show, but these last 2 episodes really hit it out of the park! And it's good knowing that it's been renewed for another season, as I want to see more of this show - and before it's all over I want to know about Jack's missing two years that was mentioned in his first Doctor Who appearance.
Speaking of Doctor Who (as apparently, I do all the time - according to my "Cuz"), the finale of Torchwood is apparently a huge setup for the final 3 episodes of the next season of Doctor Who, as Captain Jack Harkness will return to Doctor Who in those episodes, which will air months before season 2 of Torchwood. I'm very excited about all this.
And last on the Dr. Who front - I got Mark to start watching the show. He'd seen 2 episodes before, at random, but he's watched the first 5 episodes of the new series (season 27), and has enjoyed them. yay!
I had a dream about Jeremy this morning. I dreamt I was hanging out with him and Danny, and they were both insanely happy. We all were. And it was very, very odd. lol I still need to track Jeremy down and see what's going on with him. We were so close for several months and then he just cut me right out, which worries me.
I need to get ready for work.

Last night, before going to bed, I started getting this pain in my neck. I thought I was just extremely tired... only I woke up with the pain much worse. I took some motrin, and put an ice pack on it. I called into work. Work was dead again, so that wasn't a problem, and what little drama that was caused sorted itself out by my conversing with DJ. I've been putting the ice packs on, and taking the motrin, and it seems to be doing far better than this morning. I won't be jumping around just yet though.
Mollie called me yesterday. Told me she was having trouble getting through to us ("all circuits are busy") - but that things were looking up for her & Kenny. They have a new (as in BRAND NEW) apartment in Lawrenceburg, that would have costed upwards of $800.00 here, but only cost them $400.00 there. It's still Hellish there, but at least their place is nice. They have people fumigate every month and change the air filters. They have brand new appliances, and their landlord is the town Sheriff so only nice people are getting in, I guess. Though I hope that doesn't entail discrimination of any kind... But long story shorter - they're doing well. They're first 2 months of rent have been paid, and they are looking for jobs now. That's very, very good news.
Jeremy called me yesterday, and brought me (somewhat) up to date on his life. Things may calm down a bit soon, which would be nice. I miss him. It's weird, because...my feelings for him are so different now. I really feel like we're just friends now. Though we haven't been acting like it the last few months. I think this will all sort itself out.
I talked to Jason, the boy I had a date with a few weeks ago. We've had the worst luck getting in touch since then, but it finally happened. We may hang out again sometime soon. That would be nice, I think. ;-))
And in my ongoing Dr. Who obsession, I've rewatched nearly all of Torchwood, and my opinion of several episodes were raised, while a few others were merely cemented - but over all, I think they had a great first season, and that it will most likely only improve in time - especially with thos upcoming WHO crossovers. ;-0) Mark has finished season 27, and begun season 28. I do believe that when Mark is done catching up, I'll be taking a break from the Doctor, at least the current one. I actually have HUNDREDS of episodes to catch up on, though I'm not in any hurry, really.
I guess the last week has been mostly fabulous.

I closed the store with Nate Sunday night. I didn't do much of anything on Monday - which was proabably a good thing, as I feel pretty great now. I'm downloading the new L Word. I watched the new "Brothers & Sisters" episode, which rocked. I also finally watched the lesbian romance movie "Imagine Me & You", which I loved. I've owned it for months, but this was my first chance to see it.
Monday was my friend Chris's birthday. I sent her a message, and she left me a voicemail later in the day to extol the virtues of some hot, single, coffee shop boy she met. lol It was also my couin Joy's birthday. I left her a voicemail just after 12am, then later posted a comment on her myspace page. We haven't talked much since the last time I saw her. We're playing voicemail tag though.
I've been doing that with a lot of people lately. Jason. Mollie. Mark. Jeremy. If I didn't live with Mark, I'd probably not see him at all.
Late Saturday night I got a voicemail message from earlier from this guy Michael. According to Michael, and his friends, he really, really likes me. He was saying he was going to be at the Aut Bar later, and he hoped he'd see me there. I just had a fantastic date with this guy Jason a few weeks ago, but I figured I'm still single, and it's not like a real date or anything - I just wanted to see how he was and all that. And I hadn't been to the bar in ages. So I went. Only he had just left. I callled him, thinking he could come back, but he didn't answer his phone. I left him 2 messages. Then I ran into his friends who told me that he'd picked up 2 other guys and left with them. I know it wasn't a date, but it bothered me. Then the friend who saw that I was less than pleased told me he wasn't serious about them, but that he was serious about me, and that they'd done some drugs a week before and talked about me. Um...so he invited me to the bar to see me, cause he's very serious about me, then he left with 2 other guys...and he's into drugs? Great. Then she accidentally spit in my eye. Not the edge of my eye - dead center. It was so gross. Then I remembered why it had been so long since I'd been to the bar. Thank you so much.
I have some days off this week, but Mark has a lot of appointments, so I won't have the car, which sucks for me, and probably isn't all that great for him either. I hope he's ok.
I can't believe Shawn & Jonathan broke up again. I know that's random, but it pops up in my head every now & again, and I get this sad kind of feeling.
I should get away from this daft computer, and chill. Don't know if that will happen or not though.

I've been having really bad migrains lately. Stupid Michigan weather! Erg.
Besides that today has been fine. I'm not scheduled to work tomorrow but I'm covering Nate's shift, which is fine, since my job is mostly fun, and having cash is nice. Plus helping out a friend is always good.
I might have a date tonight. Not sure yet. We'll see. I've been pretty horny lately...so I'm not sure I trust myself to think clearly. Ugh.
;-0)
Mark finished the 2nd season of Dr. Who last night. Now he just has the 2nd Christmas Special ("The Runaway Bride"), the first season of Torchwood, and the pilot for the Sarah Jane Adventures. I hope he enjoys them.
I'm going to take a shower, and decide about my plans for the night.

I talked to Mollie the other day; she sounds like she's in good spirits. Hearing her laugh makes me happy. I miss her far more now than I did before talking to her though. Before I was kind of not thinking about her.
I got quite a few extra hours in at work last week, and it looks like I'll at least have a few extra this week. DJ's son broke his arm and he needed to take him to the doctor today, so I worked at the store. But they thought no one was coming in until 4pm, so I was going to work for 3 hours, only Alex came in at 2pm, so I really only stayed half of what I went in for, which wasn't much to begin with. Still, it's extra cash, and it's nice to know (and have others know) that I've helped out DJ & Nate in the last couple of weeks. It's cool that we all help each other out when we can. Oh, and Alex is 19 today; happy birthday Alex. ;-0)
I watched the new L Word, Brothers & Sisters, and Desperate Housewives last night - all good. I've got this Duran Duran remix on repeat. I'm extra tired, as I only slept for 2 & 1/2 hours this morning, but I wanted to write something here.
I'm giving Wendy her Doctor Who / Torchwood / Sarah Jane Adventures discs on Wednesday. I hope she's able to view them. I'm very excited to see what she thinks of all these things. I'll be sending discs to Mollie sometime this week. Mark is 5 episodes in to Torchwood. I'm slowly building a circle of Whovians to chat with. ;-0)

I've been staying in a lot lately, just thinking things out. I've started reading some of my old Star Wars books. I went to a Staples Bowling party, Sunday night. It was nice to see Jennifer, Wendy, Paul, Adam, Mikey & Bobbie. I was Wendy's guest, and we had a lot of fun. We danced. She's taking me to Necto Friday night.
I don't really feel like writing.

I met this guy named Christopher last night. Tried putting his phone # in my phone, but I must have shut it before the last setting, and I don't actually have it now. That happened once before. He got my number too, so hopefully he calls me. I might go to City Club tonight; not sure yet.
I went to Necto last night, with Wendy from Staples. I had a really good time. I danced a lot, and I got hit on a lot, though mostly by 18-20yos who freaked out when I told them how old I was. I know I should just lie to these guys, but I can't bring myself to do it. I guess it's flattering that they think I'm younger, but it's pretty annoying that they all kind of run away. For awhile that wasn't happening. Oh well.
There was this one guy (Christopher) who was gothed out as well, and I saw him all over the club, and I saw him looking at me a few times. Later, Wendy & I were dancing in the Red Room - I was getting sweat in my eyes, so I went to use the bathroom, and told her I'd meet her in the hallway. When I was about to enter the men's room, I noticed the boy across the way giving me "the look" - the "you are fucking hot" look. I returned the look, and entered the bathroom, thinking he'd be there when I got back. He wasn't. And I couldn't chase after him, upstairs, because I was waiting for Wendy. I asked this goth girl if she was with him, but she wasn't; she wished me luck though. I found Wendy, and we found him on the dance floor upstairs. I grabbed him from behind, and told him he was hot, and as I continued on, he grabbed me and said I was hot too, and that I should find him outside after the bar. After the bar closed we found him before heading outside, and he asked for my phone number, which I gave him, along with my webpage address. I also asked for his and programed it into my phone. It was a 313 area code, so I'm guessing Detroit? I even thought for a second that I should make sure the phone # was programmed in, but there was this huge group of people pressing me out the door, and I figured I was being paranoid. FUCK.
Oh well. He'll either call or he won't. Blah.
