the suspense has been killing you all, i'm sure. i sent the letter, and received one back that made it evident that my mother did not get the point. so, this year was about new traditions. i worked in the morning and was given 10 extra dollars, a huge hug, and a "happy thanksgiving" from a woman that looks like mrs. claus. then it was off to see rent for the second time (b/c midnight sneak previews just couldn't hold me over) with my life partner, which of course had me dancing on our way out. i was adopted this year by brownie and company, and think i've found my new family for all holidays when they are in town to celebrate them. it was absolutely perfect. i lied and said i baked a pie, which we all know isn't true b/c jesus christ i can't cook worth a damn. but i took the compliments. and i drank wine. i'd given it up since october 15th (drum roll.......drama night!), but thought since it was thanksgiving and it was such a wonderful night i'd have a glass. or four. afterwards, we headed to the best place on earth....zenos. and then i had a high school reunion at the phyrst. it was quite possibly the best thanksgiving ever.
i've been working a ton lately, which has been tiring, yet also very good. especially b/c i'm PLANNING TO TRAVEL AROUND THE WORLD!!! okay, so i'll probably chicken out b/c i'm fucking weak like that, BUT, if i don't, i'll be in japan, korea, malaysia, morocco, and france during the month of march. i've got a pet sitter, a substitute for work, and the funds to make it happen. so,.......it's very exciting.
i have this overall positive feeling going on and i'm not sure how to explain it. people just fall where they are meant to be, and i'm really fortunate to have them falling into my life and holding me when i need them most. don't get me wrong, things aren't absolutely fabulous for me right now, but it's just a new perspective i'm going for. and i like it.
in other news, i've decided to see a therapist. i hope it rules. the end.
katie nekked cut my hair. i don't think people get how seriously big my hair was. like, huge. and now, thank god, i don't have to wake up every day and look in the mirror and say, "huh?" YESSS!!!! just in time for a weekend of queerness.
and now, after nights of staying up WAY too late, only to get up WAY too early..........i'm headed to bed for a much needed rest.
