So here's a quick wrap up since I have a lot of stuff to get done today.
My brother's wedding actually happened and it went well! The only drama related things were the girl's parents decided not to come because they didn't approve so she had to get her bff's husband to walk her down the aisle. I felt bad for her. Then during the ceremony, while we were all standing at the altar thingy, my dad took a phone call...very loudly. Everyone there was completely mortified and I'm sure it was the longest minute and a half ever.
The party started and oh lord did it start. Me mixed up with my mom's crazy side of family gets me into a lot of trouble.
I've never been too big on common sense so to anyone else who lacks this as well, drinking three big bottle of champagne all by yourself, followed by a few Coronas and some coke and rum meanwhile knowing that you have to get up at 4 in the morning for a 6 a.m. flight, is a very bad idea. When I got up I was, haha, not in a good place. Thankfully I never threw up but I kinda wished I did just to get the ick feeling out of my system. Luckily with aspirins and tons of water, I felt better before I had to board my flight. Good times.
So with that wedding done and out of the way, I can now focus on a good wedding # 1, Ann and Barry. I'm looking forward to attending that.
So anyway, I'm back in a funk where I feel like I need to escape my life, yet again. It didn't work out for Fango and it didn't work out when I was back home but I think/hope/when lord, whens it gonna be my time! that will happen when I go to L.A. in three weeks.
I have a problem where I think too much and I need to be occupied so I can focus on what I'm doing and not fuckin' think. That's been a bit of a problem lately so I just need to get away. I need space, I need air, I just need something.
I've recently been chit chatting with some Geekscape people (I met them last year and went to a movie night where I showed a movie with an inflatable vagina) They have expressed excitement for me to come and can't wait to see what movie I'm bringing next (Gingerdead man is my next choice) I was honestly surprised because when I joined them, there were a billion people there and I was so nervous and reserved, I didn't think they really liked me. Their enthusiasm has really brighten my spirits and it made me look forward to my trip even more!
As I mentioned endlessly every chance I got, I did not have a good time last year. My roomies were....well...freaks. Thankfully, Jerry is my roomie this year, I get my own bed so no sleeping on the floor, the guest list is great, I'm set. Plus I have a lot going on. Thursday we arrive, Thursday night we are going to hang out with the Geekscape people. Friday the convention kicks off then Friday night we are going to the L.A. premiere of Black Devil Doll. Saturday is always the most busiest day at the con followed by the after party. Sunday winds down, everything ends then we are back in Chicago Monday morning where I spent the day recovering.
If I can manage to stay in the "geek/girly giggly" zone the whole weekend, it's going to be the thing I need. I think the new-ish atmosphere and being around cool people is going to be good for me. I just need the time in between to hurry up and pass. I know it will soon I just need it to be now.
Till Next time.
