So...
I've decided that Tina Majorino is one of my new favorite actresses... Along with Thora Birch, Angelina Jolie, Clea Du Vall, Parker Posey and I'm sure there's someone else I'm forgetting... She was the beloved Deb in Napoleon Dynamite (one of my favorite movie characters of all time), and is a kickass hacker-brain girl on Veronica Mars (another awesome character) and I found out she was also in Corrina, Corrina, which is a fantastic movie.
(she looks so skinny here. she seemed curvier in Napoleon Dynamite, no?)
In other news... I've recently had the displeasure to realize that all my "friends" here are immature, catty elitists. I got to that point with them where I knew they were about to stop bothering to call me, since I'm not reliable enough (don't call, only return 1 in 3 phone calls, don't want to hang out very often), and I had a choice to either step it up and try to maintain my status in their group, or just give up and let the chips fall where they may. I chose option B, and now I'm just barely on the outskirts of the group (I still get invited to stuff once in a while). They still talk to me, but usually the conversation goes, "Hey! I haven't seen you in a while! What's up?" Anyway, I hung out with them last week, and all they wanted to do was put down everyone in our program that they don't hang out with, including the student who has Asperger's syndrome. Seriously, I've reminded them again and again about his Asperger's, but they still want to talk about how weird he is and how he has no social skills. And the girl we suspected was a lesbian, I guess they've taken to calling her a boy's name. I mean, when I hang out with them, I feel like I'm in middle school. And not in a good way. What is it about people that makes them feel compelled to organize themselves into cliques, and then get together to talk about how much everyone who is not in the clique sucks? I'm so over it. I was over it when I was 13, thank you very much.
So, it's back to my standard mode of not having any friends, and being much, much, much happier that way. Especially now that I have Zack. Nobody compares to him anyway... Though I would love love love to find just ONE female on the planet who really understands me. At least I have my sister...even though she's backstabbing and psychotic 50% of the time. No wonder I have trust issues...
Edit: there's a girl in my lab that seems really cool. She's the same age as me, and she's crazy about cats too. And soooo liberal.
