Railroad to Wellville

That's it, the reservations are made and next Saturday, I'm hopping a train to California. I'm going to visit the illustrious and glamorous Flipsycab and Stennie! Anyone want to join us?

This is JUST what I need right now. Good time away, good time with the girls, good time on the beach, good times period!

I'm even looking forward to the long train ride, I love train travel! (Though I WISH I had the extra $600 to spend on getting a sleeper cabin! Man, when I start making the big bucks, I'm totally going to do that!) And I think just having some peace time will be good.

I love planning, I'm already making a mental list of things to pack. Soon the ACTUAL list will begin. I think planning for a vacation is 1/3 of the fun of going! And jeez, it's only a week away! Yay!

Flipsy said that she has to remind herself that the reason I'm coming is because I've just had a breakup, because she's so excited. She said she was worried that she might accidentally be insensitive. My response: no, I love it! I love forgetting that I have the blues at all - that's the whole point of the visit!

Man, my friends are the best!

Note to Self

Writing in your journal is a good thing. It's a good to express yourself and order your thoughts and get it all out and record it all for posterity.

But if you have a lot to say - start earlier. You are very tired today because you wrote in your journal for 2 hours last night. Bad girl.

On the Other Hand
I DID watch "The In-Laws" yesterday. What a sucky movie!

Just kidding. I, of course, loved it. I love Alan Arkin (though, apparently not in the same way as Flipsycab...).
I remember the "Serpentine, Shel, serpentine." scene. And I'd forgotten about, but remembered vaguely when I saw him "Senior Pepe."

What a buncha loons! (Thanks Bet!)

Oh, And One Other Thing...

This sudden wealth of free time and dirth of companionship falls 2 weeks before my week-long vacation the first week of September. I've already explored airfare and no, I cannot afford to fly to LA-LA-land to visit a couple RAD ladies I happen to know and blog. Nor is my car trustworthy enough to drive there, although I could probably afford that kind of trip.

Any ideas?

Day One, All Over Again

Well, I have bad news, bloggy-buds. I have been pretty absent lately (and literally absent for the last day and a half) because things are not going well in the old love-life department. I'm sure you've gathered that by my very infrequent posts of late. Yesterday afternoon we sealed the deal, and Krizzer is single once more. Five years down the drain.

What a BUMMER! Apart from the hurt feelings and the frustration and anger and the what the hell is wrong with him and the what the hell is wrong with me.... I'm just so dissappointed!!! I feel like I just spent five years building a house, and then all of a sudden along comes a strong gust of wind, blows it over, and it smashes into a million pieces. Or more like - it sinks into a swamp (or even more like, it burned down, fell over, then sank into the swamp. No singing!) and I was stupid to have built it there in the first place. Damn it, it seemed like such a real good fixer-upper.

Blech. And, while I have some very good friends, my blog-buds included, I don't have the "family" of friends that I have had in past, to cushion the blow, to comfort me, to make me feel not alone. And I do, I feel the most alone I've felt in a long long time. I don't have a close circle of friends, I don't have a band, I don't have a cast and crew, I don't even have roommates anymore. (yah yah yah, I know, boo-hoo poor me) I don't have a "we." And I really like having a "we." (and I LOVE having a "wee-wee")

So I feel like I'm starting over again. I hate this part. Oh, I'm so let down. Sorry I'm such a bummer everyone!

Utter Failure

I did not watch "The In-Laws" this weekend, like I promised. (I mean that I promised I would watch it, not that I wouldn't.)

The blogging blues continue. I just can't get it up to be witty or entertaining or blithe or amusing or lighthearted when I just feel lousy. Depressed. Sorry folks.

Mike, now would be a good time for some funny blog suggestions. I could use the lift!

Monday Manners

That's right, folks. Time for our weekly lesson in polishing our presentation:

From the chapter, "At Table":

DON'T, as an invited guest, be late to dinner. This is wrong to your host, to other guests, and to the dinner.

Now, I'm sure you feel as I do, that there's nothing worse than insulting your dinner. I'd hate to have a plate of ham and broccoli pissed off at me.
