respectable

listening to a sarcastic mix, this song by nellie mckay seems to suit my state of mind very well - fast and dry and defensive. life has been confusing and painful since thanksgiving. some things i don't feel like sharing yet. some things aren't really my right to share. it's just that my life and the lives of some people i love are a bit fucked. probably things aren't really that bad, but it's hard to put into perspective right now. anyway, i don't think that there's really much to be gained by complaining, so i won't.
i fell asleep in property today. oh, how embarrassing. i still probably learned more than half the class. my, but some of my classmates are thick.
orientation is over, and my oral exam is on tuesday. nothing to stress about, i don't think. i just need to do a bit of review on the weekend.
ballroom dancing tonight - tonight we will conquer the triple jive, dammit!

you can't always get what you want

listening to a stones mix, watching the rain fall, trying to convince myself to get up and go get groceries.

dil is officially on hiatus, which is awesome. they are probably going back in january, but i am hoping it'll be longer. i need him at home to do my laundry and cook my meals!

the wrap party was last night at the seahorse - good times, and i got to see a lot of people that i haven't seen for a while. the d.j. was awful, and the food was not so good either, but it was a good looking crowd of happy people who basically really like each other, which always does my heart good. dil and i were pretty much the first to leave. i'm still not feeling that good (i think that was the first time in a long time that i have turned down a tequila shot.) doctor's appointment on monday. also, today is for cooking and reading, and i didn't wanna be too tired to do the deeds.

i think that a lot of people are coming to dinner tomorrow. i hope that we will have enough food. i have a sneaking suspicion that we are gonna have five pies and no vegetables. i am not so good at potluck management. i don't really care; i can think of worse things than pie for supper.
