so close and so far away
...APA, that is. Each day that passes brings me closer. I have it all mapped out in my head - unfortunately, not all on paper. Why is it so difficult to just sit down and finish? Why am I putting so much pressure on myself when in actuality, probably NO ONE WILL EVER READ THESE PAPERS? Unless they get published someday, which I suppose would be the ultimate goal - but that day is so far away, I really feel that it's silly to try to set my quality level there...today. Right?
Hmmm.
In the interim, I'm just trying to enjoy life. I saw Lady GaGa on Friday evening, which was the BEST show I've seen in my life. Better than anything I've seen onstage. Not the best concert, but close. (The award for best concert still goes to the first time I saw Ben Folds at Nokia.)
I stayed up all night that night dancing in gay clubs and drinking Red Bull/vodka. I'm still amazed that I wasn't sick, I couldn't see straight by the end of the night and didn't make it home until 4am.
Saturday I got a massage (I have a wonderful girl I've been to once before who not only relieved the stress, but also educated me on ways I can fix some of my bad habits - like wearing high heels and carrying my bags on the same shoulder.) That night, Kyle and his Dad and I went to the Rangers game and watched them lose to the Angels. Sadly, I can't say that I've ever been to a game where they have won - but it was still a great time. Sunday we saw Inception, which is basically a metaphysical heist movie. I loved it and want to see it again.
I feel like these next two weeks are the calm before the storm, so I think I'll continue to lay low for a while.
