Some Stuff
Another successful Death Guild conquered. It was fun - not a whole lot of people there because it's finals week, apparently. Sort of dead. But I feel less awkward when it's not packed. Kurt came with me, and if I hadn't promised to go with him tonight, I probably would have bailed and stayed home playing LotRO or watching a movie.
Between Kurt and lilibat prodding at me, I've been TRYING to go out more. I think maybe I need to get a little better at going out by myself (you know, shopping, to the beach, for a drive, that sort of thing) before I just throw myself out into the teeming masses. Going out at all feels really daunting when all this stuff is going on in my life - I am having to try REALLY hard to not become completely antisocial.
I haven't gotten back to the level where I have a sexy haircut, fabulous color, extensions, creative makeup, or incredible wardrobe. It's just me, my dyed-blonde hair, red lipstick, black mascara and silver eyeshadow. Classic? It's what I've gone back to time and again for 15 years. A cute skirt and shoes made me feel "going out" worthy. Kurt and I talked about how I would not be wearing strappy high heel sandals if we were in Minneapolis in December.
Duh. This is why I don't live in Minneapolis.
Still not making a whole lot of progress on that whole sleeping schedule thing - I mean, wtf, I was up at 8AM today, and I'm still up at 4AM and I'm not sleepy? I was falling over tired just a few hours ago, but I forced myself out to a nightclub! You'd think I'd be more tired NOW.
I put up my christmas tree last night:
That's pretty much what I have in terms of holiday decorations this year.
It's hard when you live in a small room all by yourself. I felt lonely and left out listening to everyone talk about their decorations or their trip home to see the family or whatever... So I have a decoration now, too. Oh, and that little card with the tree on it came from jola, who reads my other LJ.
