10:44 am - g'morning!
|
|
I spent my valentines day waiting on people while they had their valentines days and so I smiled and brought them lots of wine and a four-course meal, and they gave me lots of money! So, all in all, it was great and I did manage to eat, like, ten thousand chocolate truffles. When I got home, I called my Valentine to say goodnight, and then I took a late-night bath while drinking a beer and reading newsweek. oh-so-fabulous a combination. well, that's all for now. ps- yay walt!

7:02 pm - i'm back!
|
after what livejournal has informed me was an 89 week absence, I am posting on good ol' lj. livejournal seems so quaint, don't you think, compared to facebook and myspace? but also charming. simple. well, it still has it's uses, i think. i still read it every other day or so to see what jen, scott, anton, walt and a couple others have to say. oh, and robyn! i love reading robyn's updates--what exciting changes! i also love reading about the crazy kids that mari and jen preside over. i love scott's short bursts of entries, always passionate. well, i'll try to be better about writing here.
here's a few sentence-long life update: i've finally graduated with a BA in film studies. i live in berkeley with laurel and stacy in what i think is a kick-ass apartment, and enjoy weekend conjugal visits from my partner, Nicholas. i think everyone who i reading this already knows all these things, but it seems right to do this kind of update when returning from a long absence (again, 89 weeks). i'm a waitress at a restaurant, and lately i've been saying waitress rather than server because i think it's sexier. i like my life right now, but am feeling the pull of the future...i need to make use of my education and passions and get a film job, i suppose. i hate writing cover letters for jobs, but i won't complain about that here. i'm turning 23 in about 2 weeks.

1:16 pm - fun facts for the day! (courtesy of susan davis, 1988)
|
-Until the mid-nineteenth century, the U.S. government had no systematic legal position on birth control or abortion.
-The Catholic Church did not prohibit abortion before "quickening" -- fetal movement beginning around the forth month of gestation -- until 1869.
Life at conception is a timeless, universal phenomemom? What? NOT!

"And don't forget, tonight at 6pm, Darth Cheney and Senator John Skywalker will go toe-to-toe with their rhetoric sabers-while sitting down, at a table, because a prancing Skywalker might appear too young and vital in contrast to a hunched Dark Lord, and because Darth Cheney can't stand for more than 60 minutes without to lying down in his coffin and drawing strength from the soil of his home planet."

who should i vote for? when you cast a vote, is it more important for this vote to say "I believe what you stand for is right," or is it "I want you to be president." why is the vote sacred...is it because it's a vote for ideas, or people?

i fuckin hate how they broadcast the gymnastics results all over the damn news before it's even aired on tv because fuckin nbc wants to wait to air it during primetime, even though everyone who cares probably couldnt avoid the persistent headlines that such and such a country won gold, silver etc., and therefore cannot watch with any feeling of suspense. last night, i got to lord my superior knowledge over nicholas and walter when they were watching the mens finals, but a fat lot of satisfaction that gave me...NOT! i just want to be ignorant and silly and caught up in the excitement of it all and fuckin nbc is stealing that joy from me!
