the winter makes you laugh a little slower

So apparently everyone else on the planet got a snow day today. I didn't - not even little flurries! nothing! - because Tennessee sucks. This means two things: (a) I had to work today while many of you didn't, and I am jealous, and (b) my flight to Chicago tonight has been delayed due to weather. Joy. (And also due to a Southwest plane crashing at Chicago Midway last night, injuring a bunch of people and killing a small boy. Guess what? I am flying on Southwest, into Midway. My mother is freaking the fuck out.)

The original purpose of this trip was to see the pretty gay cowboys, but Brokeback Mountain won't be showing in Chicago until next weekend, and I can't afford to fly up twice. It won't be in Nashville until January at the earliest (and quite frankly, I'd be surprised if the movie ever makes it here). So, it appears that I will be cowboy-less for a good stretch of the foreseeable future. Woe! Although ... the closest showing on the weekend of Dec. 16th is Atlanta. Hmm. If only I knew someone who lived there, who might let me visit for the weekend and drag her to the theater to go see gay cowboys with me even though she couldn't care less, in exchange for a BSG mini-marathon and the exquisite pleasure of my company.

Saw "One Angry Veronica" last night. WALLACE!! Wallace is back! YAAAAAY! ..... and um, that's really the only part I cared about. Everything else was meh. Oh - the scene of Logan watching and destroying the tapes was superb and not too heavy-handed, and he actually managed to wring some sympathy out of my cold dead shriveled heart. I enjoy his moments of vulnerability as long as there aren't too many of them; when he stops being the obligatory psychotic jackass and starts being a lovesick woobie, I get bored. And then of course Keith and Logan together are fantastic. KEITH!!! It was so great that Papa Mars got to do some detective work of his own this ep without being upstaged by Veronica. Overall? I hope next week's ep is much better.

I have been tired and stressed lately, and also hungry. I've been on WeightWatchers for the past two months, and though I haven't slimmed down much at all, at least I'm not gaining. I even dropped 2 pounds last week which is the best I've done yet. And then last night I got this intense craving for sweets, and I couldn't stop eating all evening, and I was pissed at myself. I kept wondering "Why am I irritable and craving chocolate?" And then I looked at the calendar and went "Oh. THAT'S why." Heh.

Any efforts to cheer me up by telling me jokes or funny stories or sending me links to porn entertaining things would not go unappreciated.
