Closed until further notice

I'm going to London until Sunday. Then I'll think about whether I'll want to open this back up. Am tending towards just letting it die, though.

Weekend Update

Hobbled to work on Friday where everybody laughed at my pizza story. Left work early (which had nothing to do with everybody laughing but I just thought it was worth a mention) and went to dinner with my parents and my brother and his intended. Mental Note: Greek restaurants make you really unpopular if you eat ALL the tsatsiki AND the onions available. Vegged out on the couch in a haze of garlic for the rest of the evening.

Saturday: Spent loads of money on food. Remembered today that I am leaving for England in three days and am not going to have time to eat it all. Then I watched Donnie Darko which I highly recommend - it's weird and good. Good because it's weird? Maybe. It features somebody hallucinating a scary rabbit named Frank (boy, was I afraid of Frank):



Has a really convoluted plot (the film, not the rabbit) and I'd appreciate it if somebody else would watch the movie so I could discuss it. In the evening, Ulisch came over and we made Cosmopolitans:



Then we went out and discussed things that two women discuss when they're on their own: Shoes (of course). Among other things. Which was fun. Left me a little bit under the weather, though, which is why this might be not as coherent as it could be.

Today: Why is it that when I go to watch a football match it always ends up being really terrible? Might have to do with the protagonists. I caught myself having the blasphemous thought that being a fan of the OTHER LOCAL team would at least lead to watching an enjoyable match once in a while. Nuff said. It was that bad. Now I am back on the couch feeling tired. Tomorrow I have to go to a presentation where I am supposed to look "sleek, smart and stylish" as my boss put it. I am feeling like neither. Sometimes I wish I was more sleek, smart and stylish. Well, this, too, shall pass.
