Kill the Sun So I Can Sleep
Blah, I can't wait till this divorce thign is settled, it is constantly wracking my nerves with fear and doubt. I'm afraid for my dad, concerned about my brother, and really upset with my mom right now. The last few days have been really hard wheneer I haven't been distracted. It's like it's been for the majority of the year. It's either up or down. I can't find a middle. One of my goals was to be able to find time alone meaningful - I still can't do that and in addition and plagued with concern and despair.
On an unrelated topic I had a WONDERFUL presentation today :D! I got 100%! The class and prof were both captivated and so many people kept coming up and complimenting me on it. It was the largest group I've ever done a presentation for (60 ppl about) and the fact I was doing it on the Collective Identity of the Queer Movement on looking back may have struck some people (I think the prof inparticular) as brave. Really it was just like my pre-out same sex marriage presentation in that sense but I'm used to address queer with a 'we' instead of 'they' pronoun. In either case it made me feel wonderful and reminded me of my ambition and hopes of becoming a sociology proffessor.
In other random news Robin and I in our brilliance had one profoundly dissapointing opinion with regard to Star Wars: Natalie Portman was not only a sissie but where the FUCK where her cool dresses?! I was sooooooo dissapointed! Aside from the bad char development and iffy plot the action was good and it was interesting to look at the movie from a sociological and philosophical viewpoint and ask what is being framed as the dark side and the other and why?
Also! Xandria = (L)! Oh Gothic Metal what would I do without you?!
