It's been a very long time.
My academic conference presentation went quite well. Dawn and my mother were the only individuals I knew well that showed up, but that's okay. I got a large round of applause and I was otherwise happy with my research.
I'm fat.
I've started working as a student assistant/volunteer in LGBT Affairs. It's fun, although it's a fair amount of work. Good think I'm passionate about what I'm doing. Negative, though, I feel extremely disconnected from the gay community. While that is, largely, by choice, it, nevertheless, arises at the worst times. Everytime LGBT Affairs works with the PSU or the GGSA, I fall silent, overcome with apprehension. I don't really want to associate with the LGBT community on a friendly level, so I shouldn't care, but...
Sat in on an LGBT panel for FRIENDS training. I walked in... to find the entire group was about 2/3 of the LGBTQ political activist group from Spring Break... i.e., they were, I'm assuming, all LGBTQ, meaning my role as a panel member was useless... not to mention I hate that feeling of sheer judgment I get everytime I'm placed on the spot with individuals of that community.
It didn't help that Lewis was there...
I missed Margaret Cho here at UF because someone doesn't think the phone is designed for real use. I shouldn't be angry but because I couldn't express it when I first got screwed over, it's just bubbling and gurgling inside right now. Damn it.
Facebook is a horrible invention, probably funded by the devil. Now we can say where we are at all times? Hooray for cyberstalking.
I didn't get the singing role in the Preview skit. Instead, I'm the STAGE MANAGER!!!!!
Oh, I'm also teaching the exploratory section of First Year Florida, which rocks. The guy that taught it last year is gorgeous, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
I'm taking a religion course at Harvard after Preview ends. Hooray!
Despite all the good, I'm still single. I don't see that changing anytime soon...
