May 3 2010

It is windy today....I actually felt myself almost being pushed over walking into work today...and I am not little...I dunno how the scrawny peeps are staying on the ground.

Saturday we were supposed to go to the beach but Donna was too hung over so we just went to the Tudor for lunch instead. Sunday the weather was bunk so we postponed the Paralympics Extravaganza at the park and played the Zombie Board game instead (me, Donna, Graeme, Amanda and Erin)...motherfucker...I am not terribly competitive but I had 2 moments of sheer and utter near win glory that were quashed so RUDELY by other players that I felt the sting of loserville extra intensely...now I feel driven to win that MFing game at least once to redeem myself.

After the tragic losses we dined on Donna’s brown rice/bean burgers which were truly not hideous at all...then we came home and I watched SOME KINDA WONDERFUL on TV (much to Graeme’s horror)...Eric Stoltz is such a blah actor even though I quite adore his gingerness...the real star of that movie is Mary Stuart Masterson...Graeme is not an 80’s movie/music fan at all...I don’t understand this. He is MY age...how can u NOT be fondly nostalgic of the crap that was all the rage when you were a teen? He wouldn’t come see HOT TUB TIME MACHINE Sat. night either...this ASTOUNDS ME!?!?!?! Donna and I laughed through most of that movie...mocking the 80’s is an art form!

Slow today at work sadly...THIS PLUS MY CURRENT MENSTRUATION CONDITION IS MAKING FOR THE LONGEST DAY ON THE PLANET. That’s in caps b/c I am damn serious! I gotta say waking up @ 5:30 am to full daylight is really fucking annoying...I always feel like I’m LATE or I slept in when I didn’t. I could have a nap right now...sitting up at my desk...upright and full on sleepy time drooling too...

Guys are different I guess. My brother seems to get more nostalgic from watching Spinal Tap, the Evil Dead trilogy, Clockwork Orange...that kinda stuff.; Tuesday, May 04, 2010 12:10:00 p.m.

How can anyone not love 80's music?; Wednesday, May 05, 2010 10:10:00 p.m.

My Beloved Henry Rollins

"Somewhere someone is thinking of you. Someone is calling you an angel. This person is using celestial colors to paint your image. Someone is making you into a vision so beautiful that it can only live in the mind. Someone is thinking of the way your breath escapes your lips when you are touched. How your eyes close and your jaw tightens with concentration as you give pleasure a home. These thoughts are saving a life somewhere right now. In some airless apartment on a dark, urine stained, whore lined street, someone is calling out to you silently and you are answering without even being there. So crystalline. So pure. Such life saving power when you smile. You will never know how you have cauterized my wounds. So sad that we will never touch. How it hurts me to know that I will never be able to give you everything I have."
