lachesis should be on her way over, so i don't know how much i'll get to write.
caffeine does some funky stuff to me now that i've stopped drinking it coffee form regularly.
i had 2 cups of coffee around noon, and hot chocolate a couple of hours ago and my heart is all racy, preventing me from feling up to being a good girl and doing laundry.
i'm hoping to be able to force myself to do that, soon, though.
while sorting through laundry, i realized that there's some articles of clothing that make me really happy i bought them. like my genie velvet pants - i haven't worn them with the right top yet, but they're really comfy, they make my tummy look smaller & they look funky (which is different from good, but i don't care). and my velvet catsuit, which i wore for most of the weekend. i only wish it was not too much to wear it as is and/or to have more things i could wear with it. sadly, my holy jeans are seeing their last days. one more rip last night, that i think is already affecting my perception of them. they've been a staple in my wardrobe since i was 16, and i hate seeing them die on so many levels. and, now i have to figure out whether to attempt to replace them, and of so, how. hrmph : / i wore my newest (third) bodystocking out this weekend, and it helped solidify the fact that my clothing style is changing. it feels really odd, because the things i like to wear aren't necessarily things that i think are aesthetically what i like (kinda related to the looking funky/good comment above and why i'm on this tangent in the first place).
but yeah, good weekend : )
friday day had a really low point. i was feeling so crappy while at work that i didn't think i could muster upwhat it would take to go to the movies.
luckily, by the end of the day, i started feeling better and in the end,sol3 and i popped into MR.
and it was the first time i had a good time at a hell in a while.quinclub mentioned the pretension aspect, but i really like it when strangers stay out of my personal space and don't attempt to interact with me - why they're doing so isn't something i notice. and it was good to see the people that i saw there, even if i don't feel like i got any time with any of the specific people. and amusingly enough, ximon has really persistent lipstick - standing in front of a mirror without the catsuit on for the first time since taking a shower, i realized there's still a mark on my neck *giggle*
saturday morning (afternoon), i woke up late, had a not-quite satisfying sub (something about asking for a toasted bun and not getting it) and spent an overall lazy day. watched the sum of all fears, which i've been wanting to see.
today, i woke up early (well, for me, for a weekend) to go for brunch, show and then coffee withdeirdre, ectropy, tafkar, ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-syndicated.gif)
quinnclub, dancer and bunicula. definately a good time, quite a few laughs at buffy's 10 year reunion and a good experience overall, especially as i would've really regretted missing it.
and now i am home, caffeinated, with some chores to do but no homework hanging over my shoulders. its almost surreal : )
and, as i have no homework to do over the next 3 weeks, i really want to get more out of my evenings and be social. who wants to be social with me?
oh, and is anyone nuts enough to go holiday shopping with me thursday night?

no homework is a wonderful thing!
Date: 2002-12-15 07:15 pm (UTC)and i'll definitely be out on friday! i'm boogy-ing for FF. you should come!
i can't have too much fun tomorrow, but friday is friday. and i'm always wild on fridays.
as for shopping, the mall on saturday was enough! eik!
Re: no homework is a wonderful thing!
Date: 2002-12-15 08:00 pm (UTC)as for friday - maybe...
as for most trips to MR, it depends on how many people i know are going. it'd be good to see you, though, now that i don't see you at the house at least once a week ; )
and yeah - i can definately understand wanting to stay away from shopping when its not necessary - i'm hoping to get away with one maul-trip and one to the christmas tree shop *crosses fingers*

Date: 2002-12-16 07:07 am (UTC)...i wish i'd had more of a chance to talk to you guys...
i was kinda frazzled & not focuss-y for the majority of the night.

Date: 2002-12-16 06:47 am (UTC)Gone up and introduced myself to two people out of the blue who I knew by sight from seeing around the club, but had never spoken to.
Had at least one person do the same. [1]
Struck up multiple conversations with people I had just been introduced to.
So, erm, yeah. I haven't really been experiencing any pretentiousness, and I don't *think* I've been furthering that vibe, myself. I could be wrong.
[1] Despite the fact that that particular night I was feeling like if auras were real and mine had a shape, it was probably black and dark burgundy and as spiky as a sea urchin. I suspect this was mostly a result of watching my ex get hit on ALL night. Not that I'm bitter or anything.

Date: 2002-12-16 07:10 am (UTC)i prefer to meet new people through people i already know, and am usually glad when strangers don't approach me... which might come off as pretensious, but has more to do with shyness & not feeling comfortable around people i just meet...

Date: 2002-12-16 07:45 am (UTC)i think the people that usually do that to me come off as being so cocky that the fact that they're going out on a limb doesn't penetrate past the uncomfortable-ness i'm feeling at the time.
its always neat to realize the aspects in which i have a hard time seeing past my own nose despite working on such issues for the past few years.
