12:26 am I'm going to go friends-only from now on. It kind of creeps me out that so many people can read the stuff that I've written in here over the past two or so years because a lot of it is wildly embarassing. So if you want to be added to my Friends list, just leave me a comment, but otherwise, it's time to say "Peace Out" to public journaling, because though I like writing in my online journal, i think I've allowed it to become a bit too personal, and as far as I'm concerned, only the really personal things should be read by my friends. Goodnight.

06:01 pm Whitney Houston made a cameo in my dream last night. I'm not entirely sure what she said (or why), but I believe it was something along the lines of "Baby, it's gonna be okay."
Seriously.

11:40 pm Well, scratch that last entry. The part about the Situation. I guess I've been checked off of that list.
What a nice reminder of the joys of gay men. Current Mood: disappointed

06:08 pm First thing Monday morning I'm gonna pack my tears away Got no cause to look back I'm looking for me a better day
Indeed.
Well, two months and 31.3 lbs later, here I am. And I feel absolutely wonderful. There's no other way to describe it. Classes are back in session and I feel totally ready for them. The view from my room is fantastic, my roommate is nice, it appears as though I may have (What? Could it be?!) a romantic possbility or two, which always makes life a little bit more exciting, and I'm sore as hell from the combination of working out and the ass kicker that is Yoga (or Advanced Creative Process, as they like to call it here).
And it's fucking AWESOME. Current Mood: accomplished Current Music: Let it Flow--Toni Braxton

I hope it was a good one. Current Mood: ...chain of fooooools Current Music: chain chain chaaaaaaaaaiiin...

06:41 pm The other day I saw a commercial for Target's back-to-school sales that featured a bunch of kids dancing around while an instrumental version of "Baby Got Back" played in the background. This left me quite perplexed. What messege is such an advertisement sending? I don't know about you, but the thought of getting 30% off of my school supplies does NOT in any way coincide with a song that invokes images of curvy women in minidresses dancing around a rather portly rapper standing on a fake mountain shaped like an ass. Who would think that such a song would be appropriate for this commercial? Will shopping at Target increase the curvature of my butt? Will going back to school have the same effect? Most of all, why are children dancing in this commercial? I think the next time I go to Target I will bring a boombox and stage an impromptu performance art piece set to "Baby Got Back." Who's with me?
Anyway...
Sometimes my friends really overwhelm me. This sounds like a negative thing, but I mean it in the best way possible. I mean overwhelming in the sense that their capacity for compassion and love is truly mind-blowing. Maybe it's just that I'm in a much more positive mindset that has allowed me to see the full extent of these capacities in a way that I wasn't able to before. Regardless, I've been looking around at the people in my life and I feel really...amazing. I mean, Rachel and Marina drove all the way from Orland Park and back in one night just to see me onstage for ten minutes! Stephanie and Maria have been my beacons of sanity and possess an intelligence and humor that I don't know where I'd be without. My circle of friends has definitely decreased in size but the ones that are still there are mind-blowingly fantastic. Current Mood: good Current Music: Joni Mitchell--Conversation

11:49 pm - But seriously though... Raise the Roof! (to benefit the Station Theater) presented as: 10 Minute Plays (A Festival of Ten) July 28-31 August 3-6 8:00 p.m. $10 Wednesday, Thursday & Sunday $12 Friday, Saturday Wednesday & Sunday: 2 for 1
Come see it! There's also live acoustic music before each show at 7:10. It should be a good time and it's definitely a good cause (a fact which was reiterated today when the roof started to leak today during rehearsal. Don't you want to prevent helpless thespians and hardworking crew members from getting rained on in the future? I thought so.)

Your Birthdate: October 9 |
Your birth on the 9th day of the month adds a tone of idealism and humanitarianism to your nature.
You become one who can work easily with people because you are broadminded, tolerant and generous.
You are ever sensitive to others' needs and feelings, and you are very sympathetic and compassionate.
Your feeling run deep and you often find yourself in dramatically charged situations.
This 9 energy always tends to give more that it gets. |

08:51 pm 1. If you had to choose only one soul diva to listen to forever, who would it be and why? --I would have to say Whitney because I've been listening to her music since I was 7 and she really never gets old. Let's face it, I've had a relationship with her music that has lasted longer than most marriages, so if I could only have her, I think I could handle it.
2. What is your favorite non-domesticated animal? --I'd have to say pandas because they're so fucking cute!
3. If I got pregnant and my man left me, and I asked you to help me raise my baby, would you do it? And what would you want to name it? --It would really depend on the gender of the child because I know FAR too many women with Daddy Issues to even think about trying to raise a girl. Just kidding. Well, sort of. But hey, why the hell not? I think we would be pretty interesting parents to a rather fascinatingly screwed up child and it would be great to see them grow up in all their Rachel and Nick-raised glory. As far as names go, if it were a girl we'd have to call her Angela or Shantiqua and if it were a boy his name would have to be Quaviante. No questions asked.
4. What do you imagine the final level of Mario to be like? --MAGICAL!! And I am DETERMINED to find out for certain by the end of next year.

12:46 am I have to work in four hours and I'm not a fan of that.
Facebook is awesome.
I've been in a really strange mood the past two days and I'm not entirely sure why.
Thank God for Ella Fitzgerald.
