I just posted over on
princealia's journal about how I never post, which made me decide to post. Hm.
Thing is, there's not much to say. I feel like I don't do much. At this point, I see a bunch of musical theater, play video games, and help my parents around the house. I mean, I do work on Mechanical Turk in there as well, so I'm making money to cover all the shit I need and stuff, but I don't know, I don't feel like I have a life.
I guess I'll elaborate on what I've done. Theater-wise, I got to see a great production of one of my favorite shows, Company. It was done in Pittsburgh and man, so fantastic. I also saw "An Iliad" and I'm going to see "Candida" in May, plus "Singing in the Rain," "Evita," and "Spamalot" this summer. Hopefully some others too. I need to get up the guts to go to NYC and see Aladdin on Broadway, but I'm honestly afraid to go alone. Ridiculous, I know. But I've never been there and feel nervous and I clearly watch too many Law and Order reurns. Feh. Oh, and Mandy Patinkin did a concert here last week and I went and it just thrilled me. I love, love that man.
Um, so dem video games. We ended up selling my car (the car I learned how to drive in, mah baby DDD: ), because we needed the money (and she was SO expensive at this point). With my part of the money, I picked up a Wii U. I only really bought it for Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, because I've been a DKC fan for 20 years and you better damn believe I'm playing as Dixie Kong again. LOVED the game, in short. So I play my Wii U from time to time, now working through New Super Mario Bros U which came bundled with my console. Pretty fun. Oh, and I played Super Mario 3D World. Meow!
As far as TV this year, I've went through mini-obsessions with 30 Rock, Parks and Recreation, Archer, Arrested Development (again), and Bob's Burgers (my heart right now. Oh man.) It's been pretty good.
I also won a little money at a casino today. Enough to buy a couple random things, some new shoes, and maybe an N64 again, because I miss mine desperately? I dunno.
This is why I don't feel a need to talk. My life is so trivial. My parents are getting weaker and I have to do random stuff for them, and I really shouldn't dislike it but I do. I feel like I'm stuck in some weird vortex. I dream too often about being late for work and missing out on responsibilities. Plus, with my 10-year high school reunion looming (not that I'm going), I just feel kinda old and pathetic and like something needs to happen but I have no idea what at this point.
All I miss about FL is friends. I've also realized just how much even talking about my life back at Toy causes me to get super angry. Getting away from that = golden. Not having a single idea what to do now = fuck.
