(no subject)
i just got home from a night at the movies with vanessa and friend justin. justin looks like someone i know only because he looks like half the kids i see at the shows i've gone to. definitely a cute kid though. i just swear i've met him before.
i'm not sure whether it was the movie, the chicken toquitos, or my free-floating anxiety that accompanies the nearing of change but i feel slightly on the sick side. we saw the sercret lives of dentist. the characters all had very high anxiety and it frustrated me a lot. they need to put warnings on movie that are meant to stir uneasy feelings. i've sat through so many ready to be sick because of the anxiety i get because the characters just frustrate me. i don't like it. they could be excellent films, i just can't stand that feeling.
but anyways. i finally returned invisible monsters to vanessa. i'm not sure i liked it so much. i think i'm slightly sick of palahniuk's style. well, no, not so much that. it aggravates me when i see exact phrases that were in the book i just read by him. i feel like he's trying to trick me, see if i'm paying attention. it translates to laziness and a lack of creativity or moreso diversity in my head. i also don't think he writes in a female voice very well. i would have mistaken the narrator for a male if it weren't for the constant references to her body. i'm onto lullaby now which is better. (i'm sorry allison that i've had it for so long and haven't read it. i've felt guilty for holding onto it for so long without reading it so i never really wanted to mention that i even had it until i was finished. you'll get it back though.)
on a better note, i got a couple things out of the way today. i got copies made of my SS card and driver's license so i can actually get paid for the work i've done, i purchased some not all of my textbooks for class, and i'm one day closer to not serving my jury duty. my mother called today before i had the opportunity to get in touch with the office and found out that i didn't have to go in tomorrow. if i have to go in tomorrow at i think i'll be able to give my shift to someone and i surely won't get picked to serve when my classes start in only a few days.
but i should sleep or lay down or smoke or do something other than this right now.
