saw religulous last night. it wasn't as good as i wanted it to be. i felt like maher was too much on the attack. too condescending and agressive, and the movie would have been better had he let the interviewees themselves prove his point. it still had an impact on me, but i think there could have been more.
work is slowing down, which was to be expected. but i won't be getting a paycheck for 6 weeks because of a payroll snafu (my fault), which is making me a little bit nervous. basically, i won't see any money between now and january. then i'll see a whole bunch, but it's making me nervous now....
i'm sick again. it was 75 degrees last friday, and this tuesday it was 35. my poor body doesn't know how to keep up with that. so i spent a week and a half being sick, finally got healthy again, and now i'm back to square one. i think it's also because the heat in my apt. wasn't turning on until yesterday (it seems it was something as simple as the pilot light not being lit, but who knows. we weren't going to try to resolve it an accidentally burn the house down). so our house was 63 degrees all day every day. which is not good for the sleeping in.
i've lost some weight. it's a result of the not eating and the throwing up, but i'll take it. the one problem is, i'd just bought a bunch of new, pretty expensive jeans, and suddenly they didn't fit (can we say saggy ass?). so i've been taking them back one by one and exchanging them. i was in h&m yesterday trading a pair in, and i automatically went for the largest size, because i've always worn the largest size bottoms in h&m. then i realized they were bigger than the ones i was returning. i am, by several numbers, no longer the largest size in a major chain. this is significant for me guys, considering most of my life i've had to wander through stores like lane bryant and torrid and tall girl, just to find a pair of pants that fit my hips and thighs. to think i could just wander into h&m or lucky and find something that fits...well, that hasn't happened since i was in jr. high with an eating disorder.
not to say i'm model svelte, but it's something.
i've decided to get rid of quite a bit of the stuff i've got. erin and tina and mike are doing a decent job of trying to talk me into staying in dc (erin has said she wants to start wedding dress shopping in january), but if it comes down to my "lease renewal" and things are still broken between schmitty and i, and my plays aren't happening, then i think i'm just calling it a loss and getting out of dodge. i don't know if i'll go to boston or clarksville or beijing, but it'll be somewhere far away.
missing the prop 8 march because of work has me pissed. the fact that prop 8 passed has me pissed. what's up america? seriously?
