I just saw Harry Potter! It's pretty fantastic. The details are amazing. The whole thing starts off really darkly like the book - it's not strictly a feel good film or a Disney ride like some have felt to me. Even the credits are beautifully done. I always think Snape should be a little more of a powerful personality but that is a small complaint....

I just talked to an old friend. She is in town. She lives in Hawaii so I don't see her much but we are getting together and going to the Saturday market this weekend.
I just watched four episodes of South Park. I think I am feeling juiced enough to pay my credit card bills now.

I just got a few episodes of "the-show-that-shall-not-be-named" in the mail from netflix. I'm strangely excited.
You were right about ending the night. Those ladies were creepy.

The movie was great. I'm really glad I went.
I think it's people, the rose festival, the sun.. I don't know but my attitude has been grimmer than grim today.
Elliott Smith is actually cheering me up right now.

Sunday night I went to a wedding reception and drank far more than any reasonable person should ever do. It was a lot of fun and I had some great company. But I feel pretty poisoned and I am still trying to reconstruct the evening. The groom's father was basically pouring whiskey down our throats. Not that I resisted...

Anyway if anyone saw me...

I hesitate to say igrowth necessarily. I would more put it as:
Living alone is great but it always had a shelf life. Without Sis across the street and Devo out of the state it just seems silly to pay so much to live here.
I like living with people even though it feels like it's hard finding people I get along with. I need the compromise. I need the cooking for other people. I need the occasional drama. I need reasons to leave my room. I need reasons to clean up after myself.
I'm only really worried about the volume I generate and the amount of space I require.

You also have to apply for groups. Lots and lots of groups. Don't make me come out there.

Sadly I am back from Taiwan. It's been a couple of days since I got off the plane but I haven't been able to get a good night's sleep yet. I had a wonderful time. I went for a friend's wedding and several of the guests from the US went on a four day tour of the Northern part of the country. We were in...

Talent is overrated. You really only need lots of volume.
Bonnie isn't being distant.. I've just gotten preoccupied.

Thanks, I'm going to need help finding a job. Where do you work now??
Sounds like you had a lot of fun in Taiwan.

I'm headed for Taiwan in the morning for a friend's wedding. This is the first time I've been off the continent in years. So I'm very excited. We are going to take a four day tour of the northern half of the island and have a couple of days to shop in Taipei. And best of all nobody from work can reach me. I got...

They have $2 pint happy hour AND $2 pita sandwhiches from 5-7! The pita sandwhiches are damn good too, full of chicken, lamb, veggies, whatever you choose. All other menu items are a buck off menu. No nachos, but I got that nice "I ate a real meal" feeling.. not bad for bar food.

I had my chicken for the week. The Devil made me do it!
So everyone around me seems to be getting married. I was in Atlantic City for a bachelor party last weekend and I will be out of the country next week for a wedding. I've got two more very close friends getting married this summer. At least those two are local weddings. I am spending way too much money on travel and presents and such. But...

Ann is a shark, it's true. I don't think she'd shoot you though. I hope you have lots of fun. You should take pictures of all the ugly parts of Taiwan. That way I'll know what they look like. I'm sure I'll see lots of the purty stuff.
"Fuck the sun, long live the fucking beast"
tsk, tsk, tsk..
