i can't make you see things the way i see things
so this weekend, for some odd reason, i could not sleep in. it was quite frustrating. up at 8:40 on saturday morning, and a little after 9 on sunday. wtf.
and so today i am feeling it. i got up a little early to do some light stretching and exercise - this will build up to waking an hour early to stretch, exercise, and jog/walk. it's been a few weeks since i've done it, and it's high time to get back into it.
as for other things - there was excellent mexican food to be had on saturday night with folks, as well as strong margaritas. this place we went to was in the middle of nowhere in pomona, but soooooooooooo tasty. then we went back to our place to watch "Tristam Shandy: A Cock and Bull Story." which i had picked up for cuteboy as a present earlier that day. it was funny, and uncomfortable, and weird, and interesting, and thought-provoking. i enjoyed it, but then again, i like british/indie films. other things of note that night were chocolate cake and ice cream. hooray!
sunday ky and i went to pick up thesuperalice from the airport. and later we gave her a dresser and a dolly. errands were run, reading was done, and then i went out to see "Lady in the Water" with d. i had a good time. i really felt that paul giamatti totally made that movie. he was brilliant. really moving performance by him. i had some issues with the story itself, but i enjoyed it quite a bit.
after movie-ing (wow two in one weekend, amazing!) d and i went to alice's to help her build her bed - which was an amazing feat. we even managed to break a bolt! it was crazy. but now alice has a bed, and that's a good thing. :)
later that night there was more cake and ice cream for me, as well as finishing a book. i read "Howl's Moving Castle" for the first time, and enjoyed it immensely all the way up to the end. but i started to get tired and grumpy and want to just finish, and one of the characters in it gets really grumpy at the end too, and i just could not shake the grumpiness. i think i want to go back and read the last two chapters again, just to get a better taste for the ending.
so by the end of the this great weekend i had i just ended up being tired and grumpy and tearful and wanting nothing more than just to be be pissy at everyone. not pleasant. hooray for raging hormones! but thankfully cuteboy saved the day and held me while i cried and soothed me to sleep.
where i dreamed about intricate spiderwebs in an indoor tennis court. and other very odd things.
right now? i'm tired. wish i could go home and nap. will probably unpack more instead. :-/
