1. first name or preferred nickname: Alex and Harlequin are generally the two names I go by. Alex, obviously, because it is my name, and Harlequin, because it is the name that my family has given me.

2. what's the story behind your username? Zylla was a name that I found in a Madeleine L'Engle Book, um the last one in the "Wrinkle In Time" series, that I can't remember the name of currently, and Noelle is my middle name. I liked the way they sounded together

3. age and sign of the zodiac (sun, rising, and moon if you know them): Leo with Libra Ascendant

4. location (state or country): Metro Atlanta, Georgia

5. where have you spent most of your life? Most of my life has been spent in Woodstock, GA, but I lived a year and a half-ish in Lawrence, Kansas

6. what were the best and worst parts of your childhood/adolescence? the best parts were relying on my imagination for play, I was the oldest child by several years, and spending time with my Grams. The worst was the abuse that I suffered at the hands of my step-father

7. if you currently have a partner/significant other, why are you with him? If not, what are your criteria for a life partner? I do have a wonderful partner... Chase is pretty much unlike any other guy I have ever dated. He has a really quirky sense of humor, and never fails to make me laugh. He also makes me feel so much more beautiful & loved than I ever have before.

8. what are you most passionate about? Children & their rights, music, art, COOKING

9. what is your primary goal/purpose in life? To live a happy & fulfilled life.

10. which of your qualities are you actively working to improve? Don't cop out and say all -- which ones are you focused on right now? Communication, and anger issues. I have gotten them under control in a big way over the past few years, but there is always room for improvement.

11. who inspires you? which people have qualities that you especially admire and what are those qualities in each person? My Grams inspires me the most. She is a strong independent woman, who takes responsibility for her actions, and forever aspires to learn more.

12. if you were a charm on a bracelet, what would you be? an owl, they are my totem, they represent being able to discover deception, and liberating female energy.

13. what do you obsess/get-ridiculously-excited over? right now, it is totally New Moon, lol... something about those werewolves totally do it for me.

14. what do you collect? or what would you collect if you could? Nutcrackers... it all goes back to Grams taking me to the ballet every Christmas to see it. I am sitting at around 35 currently, and I usually get a new one ever Christmas.

15. ignoring all difficulty factors and money, what is your dream occupation? personal chef

16. how do you identify spiritually (do you follow a religion, what do you think about soul/spirit, etc.) and in what ways do you exercise your beliefs? I'm a Pagan. I am also a witch. I am coming to terms with telling people that is what I do. I worship Goddess & God, as well as revere the Earth that they have created us to live in. I follow the tides of the moon, and celebrate the joy that every day brings.

17. how do you identify sexually? I am attracted to both men and women, I haven't been in a relationship with a woman in a very long time.

18. what's your relationship structure: monogamous, polyamorous, polyfidelitous? monogamous

19. how do you feel about nudity (do you like being nude / being around others who are nude)? I'm still not 100% comfortable with my body, although I am much happier now than I used to be.

20. how do you feel about 'little white lies'? Lies are lies, plain and simple. Usually they end up hurting both the person telling the lie, and the person it is being told to. That being said, I have told them in order to save face or feelings.

21. do you like to share yourself (thoughts, feelings) with others? yes, I'm doing this, aren't I?

22. what sort of creative things do you like to do? I paint, I sing, I do crafty things. Currently, my sister witch Emma and I are creating metaphysical items to put in our Etsy shop. Ulitmately, our dream is to open a physical shop.

23. do you often cuddle with friends (not just lovers)? yes, I love to cuddle

24. do you consider yourself a feminist? why/why not? I do believe in equality for everyone, but I admit to feeling that there are some things that men are just biologically more capable of doing. But total respect to any woman that tries, and succeeds.

25. what are your thoughts on porn? I enoy a good porn flick every once in a while. sure there is the objectification of women, but there is also the objectification of men and sex as well. I dont really feel that much of it should be taken as seriously as it is, though.

26. do you read for fun? if so, what's your favorite genre, favorite author and favorite book? I LOVE TO READ! There is nothing more in this world I love more than a good book. I like historical fiction, I like paranormal stuff, I love YA fiction, I enjoy reading everything I can get my hands on about Paganism and Witchcraft. I LOVE cookbooks.

27. favorite color (be specific -- not just green, mint or lime or emerald): Chartreuse Green.... the shade of a nice peridot, also my borth stone

28. favorite shape or symbol (heart, star, etc.) & favorite number: honestly, and contrived as it sounds, the pentacle, or 5 pointed star, because of what it represents to me due to my faith, and just the fact that OI really like stars. My favorite number is 9, its a nice round number.

29. favorite musical group(s) & genre(s): oh, where to begin.... its horrible, but I LOVE pop trash, its a lot of fun to sing along to... punk rock, because I identify with the culture, rock, classical, etc, and so on.

30. cat person or dog person? cat person.

31. favorite non-pet animal? Owls, naturally, lol.

32. favorite movie(s) / show(s)? I just started watching True Blood, which rocks, Scrubs, CSI, Glee (obsessed, really, lol), Food Network

One of these days, I am going to get better about writing. As it stands right now, I am sitting here at work, waiting for the next 21 minutes to pass so I can leave. I need BFF time.... I haven't seen Lesley, much less talked to her, in three weeks.
Also, I think I need to work on getting more sleep. Or at least make everyone leave BEOFRE 1:30 in the morning. It's just that I enjoy their company so much, and typically don't want to stop what we are doing. Ah well, the sacrifices one must make.

Last night was fun... Emma's really been feeling her wolf spirit (although I am sure that it has been helped along by reading Twilight, lol), and so we decided that last night we would call animals spirits and try to communicate with them. Well, we called them, but it started raining, and we just got distracted, but we had a good time. Anna even sort of got involved. I really need to start taking pictures of our altars, because they end up looking very pretty. Next big holiday is Yule, and we have a big feast and celebration planned for that. Chase and Caleb are going to act out the roles of the Oak & Holly Kings, and pretty much beat the hell out of each other.

I have effectively wasted 20 minutes between doing this and refunds.... I am going to Lesley's now.

Goodbye my lovelies...

Current Mood: contemplative

I woke up in a pretty good mood this morning. I got some good sleep last night, and, even though I slept in 30 minutes this morning, I still had plenty of time to get ready. While I was traveling back and forth between me bedroom, and my bathroom, which are on opposite sides of the house, going through the living room and kitchen, I noticed one of the cats' strings lying in the floor. Oddly enough, it was exactly in the shape of my zodiac sign, which is leo, for those that don't know. So, naturally, I decided to check my horoscope, based on this "sign", so to speak.

From Yahoo: "The stars have big plans today. So get out your fanciest duds and prepare to dazzle. You hit on something really big today -- so big that everyone around you has to take notice! Use that amazing energy to blow past whatever shreds of resistance to your charms still remain. "

That's good news, if I've ever heard any. :)

One of these days, I'm going to get better about updating htis thing. One of these days.

Lots of changes... mostly good.

Still like my job. Soon, rumor has it (and its a rumor from the boss) I won't be working anymore Saturdays, and I will get a raise. And a benefit package is coming soon, too, I hear. Benefits = awesome.  Chase found a new job, working with Danny, ironically enough, that pays really well. In fact, he will be making about as much, if not more than I am. All this means that we get to find our own place soon, and I am MORE than thrilled about that. I'm so ready to NOT live at my grandmother's anymore.

I've begun a religion change. Religion has kinda been a weird thing for me. I was raised Southern Baptist, which, naturally, I rejected as I got older and started having opinions of my own. For w while there, I was considering Judaism. All in all, I totally respect it, but I find that it can be just as constricting, if not more so, than Christianity. I'm far too open-minded, and believe in way too many things that a lot of people consider "out there", to be in a religion that wants to restrict and cause you to conform. I've always believed in a higher power, because everything is far too connected for it to all be random, and it's awfully concieted of me to think that there isn't. The world is far too remarkable a place to have the opinion that it wasn't created by some deity. Anyway, back to where I was going with this.... My friend Emma is a Pagan, a witch, so to speak. That's how she refers to herself. She worships a Goddess, she worships nature. She performs magick spells, and does stuff with herbs, and I think its all very cool. What she practices hearkens back to religions prior to Christ coming into the world. Specifically, Celtic in origin, although, because of the migrations of the pre-Celts, many older-than-Christ religions are very similar. Hearing her talk about it, caused me to want to learn more, and the more I have learned, the more it resounds in me that this fits me. Therefore, that's the path I have chosen. Oddly enough, Chase is Pagan, too, but he doesn't really practice. He claims being agnostic, but since I have been studying this, he has come out more and more. Now, don't think that because I have chosen to become pagan, that I will automatically shun anyone else's beliefs. I wasn't like that before I was a pagan, so why would I be like that now? Even though, most of the general practitioners of major religions would look down upon me, because they feel what I do is a form of devil worship, it wouldn't do any party any amount of good to retaliate. It just makes us Pagans look worse. All I want is to practice my religion in peace. I don't want to shove it down anyone's throat any more than I want theirs shoved down mine.

The next holiday is Mabon... (from www.llewellyn.com) "Mabon, September 21, Autumn Equinox. A day of balance. The time of the major harvest and the time to give thanks for abundance. Pagan Thanksgiving. This is the God’s last Sabbat. " This year it is on the 22nd. but generally, the equinox falls right around the 21st. After that is Samhain, which is pretty much Halloween. 
                                                                       
                                                                              ***************************************************

So, I thought I was pregnant this past cycle. I was two weeks late, and I had various other "symptoms", for lack of a better word, of pregnancy. I was scared, but I was also really really excited. I wanted this baby. Badly. I'm so ready to be a mom, it isn't even funny. And I want to be the mom to Chase's children. I know that I have always wanted children, but Chase is the first guy that I have ever been with that, I actually IMAGINE our children. If I had gotten pregnant by anyone else, I would have been freaking out. I would have had the child, but I wouldn't have been happy about it at first. But with Chase, I was really looking forward to it. I want a baby. I want a family, I'm ready to settle down.

Last night, Chase and I were sitting at the dining room table, eating. One of the cats, Checkers, the one that goes outside, started making that cat-throwing-up sound. I picked him up, because I was going to take him outside, so I wouldn't have to clean up the mess inside. I was wearing socks, and running through the kitchen, and all of a sudden, my feet flew out from under me. I landed right on my right knee, which of course, is the bad knee. Checkers went flying across the room, freaking out, of course. He ran from me the rest of the night after that. I just laid there on the floor and cried. Chase thought I was laughing, so he was laughing until he came over there to help me up. I have a HUGE knot/bruise on my knee, and on my right elbow. It still hurts.

I guess I should try to get some work done.

May. 26th, 2009 @ 05:28 pm musings and wanderings.... or wonderings
Current Location: 400 Galleria Pkwy Suite 1500, Atlanta
 I have been writing in Livejournal for AGES, but despite feeling the need to write about what is going on in my life, Sometimes I feel like I have outgrown this particular venue There is only a handful of people that follow me on here that I know in real life, and for some reason, I feel the need to sugarcoat for them. Well, not so much sugarcoat for them, but because I update there SO infrequently, I feel inundated with the fact that no one knows who so-and-so is, or whether they know about my new job, or whatever particular drama is going on in my life at the time, or what happened a month ago, that I am just now talking about. Yes, those things are important, but I may not want everyone in the freakin' universe to know about them.

Granted, I LOVE talking about myself, and that may come off as narcissistic and concieted, but you know what? I kinda am. I'm aware of this.

However, I am not narcissistic about my looks. Which brings me to the point of today's blog. Evidently, I am WAY more attractive than I think. A fact that Chase, my boyfriend, tries to tell me all the time. But me, being a typical girl with random self-esteem issues, don't really believe him. Apparently there are tons of guys out there that have a crush on me, or are interested in me, and honestly, I don't even notice half the time. Which is not to say tha I am so wrapped up in myself that I just ignore the fact that these guys are interested, but I don't get how they would be.... I think I'm cute... not beautiful or gorgeous, or what have you. Yes, I'm smart. Obviously, I am fun to be around, because people keep wanting to hang out with me. But more often than not, and I realize this from various observations, guys tend to notice the physical first. Example, I was at Anna and Caleb's one night last week, and one of the neighbor guys came over. He introduced himself to me, we made small talk, and that was it. I was goofing off with Anna for most of the night. A few days later, Chase had gone over there to do whatever, and he said to the guy, "Yeah, you met my girl the other night, Alex", and this guy was noticeably disappointed that he found out that I am Chase's girlfriend. I spoke, like, two sentences to this guy! How could he truly determine if he was attracted to me or not based on anything but physicality?

Long time, no update, but that generally seems to be the case with me. I usually just have 75 thousand other things that keep me occupied. Like a new job and a new boyfriend. Well, the boyfriend has been around for a couple of months, but that's neither her nor there at this point. The new job is really new, I have only been here a couple of weeks. I'm now working at at personal financing company, I do the billing, and customer service, and the like. It's actually enjoyable, and the hours are good. There was a teensy little bit of drama when I started working here, but now that has been all cleared up.

Chase is wonderful. Like seriously, the best boyfriend ever. He makes me feel so happy and secure, and we just have a good time all the time. Well, most of the time, but you know we can't all be happy all the time.

Um, I twitter... if you feel inclined, go check me out: singularhiccup. Did you know that Eddie Izzard tweets? Okay, I know practically EVERYONE tweets. BUT ITS EDDIE! Okay, maybe I am a little more excited than I should be, but I'm okay with that.

Danny and I are friends again. I missed him too much to not have him around. We hung out for the first time in several months on Sunday night. There were some awkward moments, but overall, we had a good time. I'm just glad that we were able to work through everything and be friends again.

There was some ridiculous drama last night. For the record, in case anyone one here even CARES, Chase isn't cheating on me, and the amount of flirting that he does isn't alarming. I'm almost as bad as he is, the only thing is that half the time, I don't even realize it. In fact, the fact that both of us are such flirts, is a frequent conversation between us, and we both think its kinda funny. So, when you put on some fake sympathy, because you're jealous, and tell Chase one thing, and towards me you act like whatever you said didn't even happen, that throws up some red flags. I am almost 25 years old, and I don't have time for high school drama bullshit. I don't have time, and I definitely DON'T have the energy.

I swear to God, its been, like, 75 years since I posted last. I keep meaning to write, and lose my concentration, or feel like my life is so trivial that no one really cares to hear about all the stuff that has been going on lately. Or I am afraid that since I hate my job, and talk about my so-called love life, that people will get the wrong impression of me, and think I'm crazy. Not that I'm "sane" by any stretch of the imagination, but really, who is?

I have come to the realization that I don't like being alone. But I don't necessarily like being with someone, either. I feel like I am constantly sitting at a red light, waiting for it to change, and being unsure of which direction I want to take. I'm unhappier than I have been in a long time, but at the same time, happier. A constant state of confusion is what I live my life in. I feel unmotivated and stagnant, and desperately want something to do with my life, but I can't pin down what exactly would be the best choice. I'm so afraid of failing, that sometimes I don't try.

On the upside, I have made some awesome new friends in the last several months. Its weird being the oldest one in the group, but it rocks that most of them, I could take into a bar. On the downside, I spend a hell of a lot more time in Waffle House than I ever imagined I would. I've also been given the chance to reconnect with some old friends. And hopefully, I haven't let other friendships fall by the way-side. Life gets in the way sometimes.

As far as my job goes, things have been getting better. The manager that hated me (and i felt equal disdain for) has left for another store, and was replaced by one that watches "Robot Chicken". I am also going to be starting a new job, soon, hopefully. My dad is starting his own business, and will need an office manager. It will mean a paycut, but it is also a guaranteed 40 hours a week, so it will break just over even in my favor. I will have to stay at Kroger for a while, because the extra money will be nice, but I also need insurance. 

I think I'm just at a low point in my life right now. I know I can make my way out of it, but sometimes its hard to see the metaphorical light at the end of the tunnel.

Oh, and for all you readers that are on my FL, suggest me something to read, please. I need some new material.

Happy December!

The last night was very interesting, to say the least. I definitely have a knack for meeting guys that are going away. At least the one I "met" last night (we actually met a few weeks ago, but we really started talking to each other last night) is coming back (to me) in 8 weeks. I don't know for how long, since he left to go to Navy basic training today. Last night was both the longest and shortest amount of time ever. I don't know, but I think this one could be a keeper.

Keep your fingers crossed.

  • I have been listening to the Beatles a lot, lately. It makes me happy.
  • I think I am getting sick again, which does NOT make me happy.
  • I met a guy, unfortunately, he lives IN Boston. And that definitely does not make me happy.
  • Thanksgiving is next week (WHERE HAS THIS YEAR GONE?!?!!?), and I will be with Lesley at her parents' house.
  • Coldplay was last week, and Chris Martin is way more of a spaz than I ever thought he would be. It was a really good show.
  • I need to buy the new Butch Walker album.
  • Does anyone know when season 2 of The Tudors will be out on dvd? Nevermind, I just checked Best Buy, and that will be January 6. I will make a note.
  • It is currently very cold in my house.
  • I am going to see Twilight tomorrow. John and I are a "Movie Couple", meaning we watch movies together once a week. It's cute. We saw Quantum of Solace last week, and I think I am in love with Daniel Craig as Bond. He's my favorite, and I am a die-hard Sean Connery fan.
Okay, I think that is all for now.

I'm disappointed, I was doing so well. Sometimes, laziness just wins out.

The past few days have been interesting to say the least. I went out Wednesday night, as usual. However, right before we left, John called. He and his girlfriend (finally, for the final time) broke up. In all my years of knowing him, I have never seen him upset, or heard as the case may be. The phone call was quite unsettling. He's really become one of my best friends, and even though  I didn't like his girlfriend, I knew he was happy, and that is what mattered most to me. It hurts me, when I witness a close friend going through something so terrible and heartwrenching. I have been keeping tabs on him, and being there to answer the phone whenever he calls, because I would want someone to do that for me, if I were in his position. I just feel so bad for him, that he is going through this.

Back to Wednesday night, I left early, because I didn't really want to be there, and I was worried about John. I left at like 10:30... I haven't left there that early in I don't know how long. Crazy.

Last night, Lesley and I were supposed to try out speed dating, but that got canceled, presumably because there were more women signed up than men. Instead, Lesley came up here, and we karaoke'd at a new bar. Wes, one of the guys that I know from The Place, Rodger, a guy I sort of dated (I guess you can call it that?), and the former Wednesday night DJ for The Place, Simon, were running it, and as I think Wes is super, we went up there to support them. Well, no one else came, so it quickly became the Alex & Lesley show. We sang a bunch of goofy songs, as well as my standards, "Ice Ice Baby" and "See You Again" by Miley Cyrus (because I have a best friend Lesley). It was quite amusing. If I can persuade other people in the area to come up there on Thursday nights, its fun! Or we could at least make it fun.

And then Kenny came in, and that was interesting. Kenny is one of THE hottest guys I have ever seen. Really, really, ridiculously good looking.  And he's nice, which is a weird combination. He's friends w/ Rodger and Wes, therefore I met him at The Place. We've said hello, and hugged each other almost every time we see each other, but last night, he decided to sit down next to me, and proceed to hit on me. Needless to say, I was a litle shocked. I don't want to read too much into, it though. So, we'll see if anything progresses from there.

As I am sure all of you fine people out there in the internets know by now, Barack Obama is our new President-elect. That means BUSH IS OUT OF THERE! We've made history, people! Not only have we elected a minority president, the fact that this man inspired us enough to actually get out there and vote in literally droves of people. The voter turnout for this election was phenomenal! I am so proud of everyone who excercised their right to vote, even if you voted for McCain. At least you got out there, and attempted to make your voice heard!

I got off work at 11, and went over to Justin's to watch the election coverage. Okay, there wasn't so much coverage, as there was a freakin' landslide of electoral votes in favor of Obama. he had already been announced President-elect, so when I got there, my small mug of champagne was imbibed slightly later than the others' who were there, but it doesn't matter. Naturally, this was worth celebrating.

McCain's concession speech was actually quite gracious, and I was really impessed by it. However, I think that with the response he got out the crowd when mentioning Palin's name, she might decide to run in the next election. Good for her, but I am still not a fan.

I'm so proud of my country right now!

I woke early this morning to vote, assuming there would be lines. I was at the polling place a grand total of 15 minutes, and that includes the amount of time it took me to actually vote. I could have slept in. Oh well.

I remember my first presidential election, four years ago. Josh and I were dating, and we spent all night on the phone with each other, and watching the polls. Tonight Justin is having an election party, and I will be going there after work. I have a good feeling about the way the things are going, based on the polls. Here's hoping that we will have a Democrat in the White House!

Last night I went to see the new Kevin Smith movie,  Zack and Miri Make a Porno, with my friend Britny. It was quite hilarious. I've never been let down by Kevin Smith, not even with Jersey Girl, which I actually really enjoyed. I feel like I should give more of a review, but honesltly, I don't think my brain is fully functional. It was funny, and if you enjoy Smith's movies, go see it, but if you want to wait until its out on dvd, that works too.

Exaggeration? Who me?

Sunday nights at The Place in Woodstock mean karaoke, and anyone of you that knows me fairly well, know that I am a dork for it. I don't get to participate nearly as often as I would like, because I usually work until 11. Last night I got off at 9, so as soon as I got changed out of my work attire, I high-tailed it over there. Mom joined me, like the good Mommy that she is, and we sat at the bar, chatted with Taryn, our lovely Sunday night bartender, and I threw in a few songs, and said hello to the friends that we have acquired while hanging out there. Central to me in this story today are Patrick and Wes, and a new character. Dum Dum Dum.

Background info: I guess you could say that Patrick and I have been seeing each other, if by seeing each other I mean in the most literal sense of the term, sleeping together. Not sex, just sleeping. Its weird. He doesn't want a girlfriend, and I don't really want to date him, but I like hanging out with him, he's nice. Wes is just a really sweet guy that I honestly wouldn't mind dating, but am more than content with just being friends. he looks out for at the bar, and I appreciate it very much.

Side note: we hang out at the Towne Lake location during the week, because its closer. That makes us regulars at two separate bars, although are they really separate if they have the same name, and are staffed by some of the same people, and owned by the same people? Am I making justifications for the fact that I spend a good amount of my free time in bars? Perhaps....

Back to where I was originally going with this... About half an hour after Mom and I sat down, she leaned over and asked who the blond was that kept staring at us. I had never seen him before, and as I am a regular, I have gotten to know the people that hang out there. We weren't sure if he was staring at her, or at me, or at us, because its apparent (well, we think so) that we are related, since we look so much alike. (Oddly enough, some people just don't realize, I don't get it.) This guy was chatting with Wes, and then came over, sat down next to me, and introduced himself. His name was Scott, and I honestly forgot his name the second I heard it. I had to get Mom to ask his name later so I could remember it. That's horrible, I know. He sat there and made conversation with me for a little while. I got up to sing a few times. He asked me to dance, so I did. And while all this was going on, Patrick kept coming over, and apologizing for neglecting me. (See how nice he is?) Earlier in the evening, Patrick had asked me for a ride home, like he usually does. He is new to the area, and doesn't have a car, and lives in the apartment complex that is practically next door. This is how the whole sleeping thing came about.

So Patrick was at least keeping his eye on me, and Scott was sitting next to me, being a chatty chatty boy. Mom left, since she had to work early, which actually happens pretty regularly. Normally, I don't like going to the bar by myself, but if I have friends there, I don't mind hanging out "by myself" if Mom decides to leave. And with Wes there, I knew i would be okay. Scott decided, once Mom left, that turning up the charm, so to speak, was the way to get to me. He came on a little strong, and apparently thought, that since I was talking to him, I was a) attracted and b) wanted to have sex. (WHERE DO GUYS GET THESE IDEAS?!) He tried to convince me to blow off Patrick, and hang out with him some more. And didn't really want to take no for an answer. He also said these things in earshot of Patrick, which just made Patrick mad. Patrick said something to Scott, and then pulled Wes aside, and I guess talked to him about it? Scott asked me if he was causing a problem, as I got up to use the restroom, and I said, "Yes, it would seem that you are." I guess he got the hint after that, because he decided to leave.

Wes came up to me, and asked me what was going on with "that guy", and I told him nothing, because honestly, nothing was. He then said that when they were chatting at the bar before, Scott was being aggressive about asking about me, and asking Wes if he could come over and talk to me. Basically seeing if there was any romantic connection between Wes and me. Of course, since there wasn't Wes told him as much, and when he was recounting this later, he apologized for giving Scott the go ahead.

So, after all this, I took Patrick home, we watched a movie, and fell asleep. As usual.

On this whole National Blog Posting Month thing, but what can you do? I didn't even get online yesterday until after midnight anyway. I think it's kind of a cool idea, especially since I never update this thing anymore. I feel like I have a lot of stuff going on, and tons to say, but I just don't have the energy to write about it. I promise I am going to try my hardest to do this thing right.

Okay, so Halloween was two days ago. I was a can can dancer, and, if I say so myself, my costume looked really really good. As soon as I get my pictures uploaded, I will definitely post them. Friday night we went to the bar, since they were having a costume contest, and well, that's typically where I am on a Friday night anyway. It was so packed, it wasn't even funny. We got there around 8:30, so we could attempt to get a table, and we ended up hijacking my mom's friend's, since there weren't any available. He didn't have a problem with it, which was pretty cool. Lesley came up to join us, and Steph, Santi and Mike planned to, but they didn't show up until 10:30, and couldn't get in, because the place was at capacity. They didn't feel like waiting around, so they just left. We had a lot of fun, but around 2, Lesley and I were just sitting at the table, practically falling asleep. All in all, we had a blast though. That's the important thing.

Speaking of Lesley, we are trying out Speed Dating on Thursday. Honestly, I am going along for moral support, but I'm not going to lie, I am a little interested as well. The guy front has been looking pretty grim, so I just figure that its at least a new way to meet people. Naturally, I am not looking for a relationship, but I would like to date someone, or lots of someones, as the case may be.

I am also seperating myself from Danny. Lesley made me read Its Called a Breakup, Because Its Broken, and it suggests a 60 day "He-Tox". And I know the name sounds kind of lame, but its a really good idea. The last time I talked to Danny, and the only time I have actually talked to him (minus when I went to get my stuff) since we broke up for good, it upset me for a couple of days. I wasn't really doing well with the situation anyway. I'm still not doing great, but I'm getting better, I guess. But distancing myself from him is the best idea. So, we're going to see how that goes. I'm proud of myself, though, he sent me a text message yesterday, and I didn't respond to him.

Last night I hung out with my friend John. He asked me to be his "Movie Girlfriend", meaning we go to the movies and/or stay in and watch them at his house together. That works for me, because it means I get to spend time with a really good friend, AND I get to see movies. Last night we watched Casino Royale, which was my personal favorite James Bond movie yet.

Well, I think that will be all the news for today. See you again tomorrow.

Danny and I are officially officially over. No more dating. Nothing.
Oddly enough, I feel worse about hurting him than the fact that what I thought was THE relationship of my life ending. And I think that bothers me most of all.

Oh, and go see Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist.

Okay, as a general rule, I can't stand Paris Hilton. However, this article from Harper's Bazaar made me laugh, and made me think that she might not be as stupid as she acts some times...
