► I went out shopping with Dad today and as usual it went fine, no problems or incidents. However, an couple of hours later I was hit with this overwhelming anxiety and desire not to go out for awhile. Dad wants me to go out on Thursday to visit my grandmother but I just feel incredibly unsettled and shaky. I was thinking I probably should stay here in the apartment for the rest of the week anyway, in case any of my parcels are delivered. It would suck if I missed the big package.
Adding to this is worry about an invitation my sister and I received tonight to go to my aunt and uncle's for dinner Christmas Day. Since we're supposed to go to Dad's place the next day for dinner, I was planning on fasting Christmas day so I'll have an empty stomach and feel less nauseous going out. I feel bad about the thought of declining the invitation, but I just don't feel well right now.
While I haven't been having any actual panic attacks or episodes, I've been having increasing trouble going out. I don't have sudden powerfully acute attacks now so much as just overwhelmingly oppressive worries.
I don't know, maybe I'll feel better in a few days.

68th Annual Golden Globe Awards Nominees - The big shockers are all the nominations for
The Tourist and
Burlesque. Two movies that have been savaged by critics and done poorly at the box office. Congratulations to the
Hollywood Foreign Press (who pick the nominees) in throwing their credibility out the window. Can we expect a
Lifetime Achievement Award for Pia Zadora?

Did I hear something about Jon Favreau not directing Iron Man 3?

Scarlett Johansson & Ryan Reynolds Split Up - That's the trouble with
Marvel and
DC crossovers. I'd be interested in knowing how much time, in their 2 year marriage, that they actually spent together in the same building.

Anchor Bay Spears 'Sharktopus' - You have my attention.
► Funny Or Die: Peace on Earth/Little Drummer Boy with Will Ferrell & John C. Reilly - Recreating
the famous 1977 clip of
David Bowie and
Bing Crosby. I actually find this recreation slightly disturbing.
