"post-bourgeois" sounds better than "lazy"
one way to look at it is this: all great men and women of intrigue fall off the social radar now and again.
i'll let you do with that what you will.
things have been alright. i haven't been very productive lately, but i'm not beating myself up over it. i'm up early today, with nothing but big hopes for what i might accomplish before the day is through. my first planned activity following this post is trying out this new yoga DVD my mom gave me. i will also go to utrecht and buy supplies for various projects i've been thinking about.
the best news is that i've been feeling good emotionally lately. i stumbled upon this website last week http://www.quitpaxil.org if you have a chance, it's worth checking out. for me, it's proven invaluable in as far as comforting me and reassuring me that what i'm going through right now is "normal" for people trying to ween themselves from what i've realized is a very dangerous drug marketed by very selfish and very evil pharmeceutical companies. the short of it is i don't feel like i'm losing my mind anymore, nor do i have any doubt at this point that paxil is not something i want operating the switchboards of my mind anymore. navagating through the HMO bureaucracy is proving to be a bitch; i would really feel more comfortable if i were in regular therapy as i take my brain back, and it's a whole lot harder than one might expect to establish such care at Kaiser Permanente.
i'm feeling excited about going back to school. i'm trying not to think yet about the headache of having to find somewhere to live in santa cruz for the 10 weeks i'll be there. i'm trying not to let myself get too excited about grad school, financial aid as an independent student, moving out of my 'rents' place... we're thinking in the NOW, amanda. work on it.
things with me and charlie are wonderful, as usual. the album is all but finished, with mastering scheduled for sometime this week. they're playing spaceland in silverlake next month; a pretty hip place for an up-and-coming band, no? the record sounds amazing; i can't wait for it to come out. i'll post a date for the silverlake show as soon as i'm made aware of it; anyone and everyone should come. in addition to boosting the band, an added bonus of your attendance FOR ME (and doesn't it always come back around to what's best for me?) will be much-needed moral support; this will be my first introduction to angeles drake groupies... in my nightmares they are beautiful and stylish and they all want to sleep with my boyfriend. back off, evil hipstresses!
