Sloth

Hey
I'm in Fairmont again with my friend Rebekah- tomorrow is her wedding shower at the church and she will be opening up a lot of presents- yay! We had a nice night out on the town with Rebekah, her fiance, and his mother- it was a lot of fun- and very relaxing conversation. I am slightly intoxicated and Rebekah is painting her nails (both hands and and feet).

I went to 13 Going on 30 and it was exactly what I thought it would be- a female version of Big- but yet different. So yeah I'm going to go- we were just having a deep conversation about violence in film and our and the public's reaction to it.

On the road again

Being home for roughly 23 hours is enough- I just wish that I had a computer or enough money to buy one- because it seems that lately that is my main reason for coming home. I should mention that every time I go on and check out my mail and other things I am always disappointed- I seem to be waiting for something, but I really don't know what. That is pretty much my state lately. It reminds me of my childhood routine of playing Barbies- I would comb and style their hair, pick out their outfits, plan what they were going to do, build their environment, and then when it came to playing with the Barbies I was usually done. It seems that my life is all preparation and no playing. I have make-up and some clothes, and various other 'essentials', I have so much in my life but it is all above the surface- I don't have any close friends anymore or any signs of a love life, the main person who I receive phone calls from is my mother- and I live with a cat!

Wow! Didn't think I would be so honest with myself- because face it that is the only person who reads this- me! I think I might make today a pity party- I'm already off to a good start.

Have a good week

Dos- cheap Mexican beer

I am in town for Larson Manufacturing's Anniversary- like it's 50th or something not quite sure which it is- anyway older than I am. I got done with work at 4 today- so I packed up and headed out to Brookings to enjoy the night with my niece and my parents. It was fun- Taylor had a blast at the Tonic Solfa concert. She was dancing and conga-ing her little seven year-old heart out. The fireworks were nice too.
I plan on going home to SF tomorrow afternoon- but it was nice coming up for a little bit on Friday.

I went to Harry Potter and it was excellent- probably the best movie so far. It was a complicated storyline but the director captured it perfectly. I also went to Kill Bill Vl.2 on Wednesday at the cheap theater. It gave me closure on the story line at least- and though I hate to admit it- I liked both of the Kill Bills. I do plan on going to 13 Going on 30 on Sunday- to the earliest matinee- I'll be the slightly disheveled woman with a rose in her lapel. Or not....

This night watching Tonic Solfa and the fireworks reminded me of my childhood- mainly because I remember doing the same thing about 15 years ago- shaking it to the crazy music and then laying in the grass and watching fireworks. I'm also feeling emotional because Taylor is getting so old- and before I know it she will be a teenager! Yikes!

News of a second beheading in the middle east is sickening- but then again all the news of the middle east is sickening. But I am tired and old- and ready for bed at 11:45- so I am going to go...

Azkaban, here I come!

Hey everyone (aka myself)
I am up this weekend after last week's peaceful weekend at home(in SF). I deceided I needed a little more chaos in my life so I came home- where I am always guaranteed to be treated like shit. Well it's not that bad- but I just love how my mother can make me feel so shitty with seemingly so little effort. I spent way to much time with her over this last week- she came up Thursday night and then I spent Friday with her- at least the morning and the night- I did have to work. We went rummaging- and I think that I need to stop buying things maybe some groceries- but I just have way too much shit in my apartment already. I remember when I first moved into my apartment in November and I had basically my tv, twin bed, dressers, and my aunt's old couch. I have since added about 10 other pieces of furniture and numerous books, movies, and just plain crap. I really want more visitors in Sioux Falls- I want to go to movies and go out to eat and basically I am too lazy to try to find dates. I want my friends.

I still have to start planning for my friend Rebekah's wedding and bacherolette party. I don't even know where to start for that. Luckily I still have some penis-top straws available from Kathy's last year. But I want to get some more stuff- I am going to have to check out Ernie November's they are advertising that they have some stuff for the party.

I am keeping up on the entertainment field- I watched Pieces of April and Wet Hot American Summer this last week- they were both pretty good. I am going to go to Harry Potter here at 4- with my sister. True geeks to the core I guess. I think it should be good- people say that this is the best book so far- but I don't know if I agree? Hopefully it will be the best movie so far.

I also plan on going to 13 Going on 30 either some time this week or next weekend.

This sucks that I am so superficial when I make entries on this- but I can never think of something deep when I am in front of the computer.
Oh yeah- Reagan died last week- which is sad- but wow- I didn't remember going to such lengths for other presidents that died- (except for Kennedy). Okay that is about all for me- peace, out!


Reading got hotter!
