here i go with one of my every so often long livejournal entries, which may reveal itself to be of either little or no consequence, depending on where this keyboard leads me in the next few minutes. well, 2006 hit the ground running saturday night, and i'm still scratching my head wondering how certain things happened, but naturally i don't regret anything, although it was a bit odd, those first early morning hours--no matter, the endless deluge of the confetti was lovely, as were the bottle of merlot, the champagne and the cigarettes.
i will go many fabulous places this year and be with a lot of (or a few, probably more like a few) fabulous people who i love, and hopefully, as ridiculous as this is, i'll find a boy to love, i really want to fall in love this year with someone this year. 2005, overall, went well, but this did not happen.
new year's day was enjoyable for the most part. i rode the 23 with steven down bardstown road after getting on it from broadway and then i got off to stop at my aunt ruth's house to look up the times for the bus to my house, but ended up of course getting caught up in conversation with her. after a few hours we went on a walk to the park with my cousins and all of the sudden her friend annie was there with her children and then these dysfunctional people burnadette and bill were there with their children, and there were children everywhere. and then this guy in a yalmulka with a small daughter and a dog called willie educated annie, her husband paul and myself about gregorian and hebrew calendars..he seemed pretty much all about the hebrew one, but as we parted i nevertheless wished him a happy new year. was i supposed to do that?
just looked at my ipod. exactly 00:00, 3 january 2006 already. let's just hope time keeps moving happily along like this. i'm going to northwestern ohio, land of my conception and personal idea of the middle of nowhere the weekend after the one coming up. it will be nice to go there and listen to music and catch up on my reading. clarissa? let's have a bottle of wine and some brie and cigarettes the friday night before i go, like we did every week for about a month some time around august/september. maybe we can visit elisha that night, too? i don't know if the latter is totally possible, but we should definitely do the former, i really would enjoy it.
ooh! brokeback mountain's coming out soon!!! looking forward to this one, although i'm afraid it will make me sad about my relationship situation and make me long to be a lovestruck/broken hearted gay cowboy. :(
dammit, i'm in the mood to dance right now, actually. i have to think about things to do--my dad gave me a little surprise new year's gift so i think i'm going to buy the ikea couch i've wanted with that. also need to purchase tickets to san francisco, definitely by february, but hopefully this month--clarissa, my fingers are definitely antzy once more to type miss debbie's numbers into delta.com
new year's resolutions? maybe i'll start drinking more champagne.
