2003-03-02 03:35:00 Ok i hate the hicups

Crap. its 3:32 in the morning and i have the hicups. I hate this. but I also just got back from nation, big club in the city, and it was a blast. On of the bartenders gave us VIP passes and we used them a lot. hhehehe. Another friend who works there took like 6 of us and used us to drop balloons on the crowd. It was all nice but very tiring. I haven't been up this late in a very long time. I just wish i didn't have the hicups. sigh

2003-03-03 09:42:00 Erasure

Ahhh, so good. So last night a bunch of us ended up seeing Erasure and it was absolutely fagtastic. Andy Bell looks like he did years ago and his voice has never sounded better. The covered all the old goodies and a bunch of stuff from the new album so everyone was happy. The venue was the 9:30 club which I think holds abut 1000 people and it was packed. Good to see that there is still support for the band. The whole show was so much more toned down then the last time I saw them back on 1991 I think it was. This show was Vince at the keyboards and Andy and then two great backup singers. So of course I had to get all my albums out and have them on at work now. hehe. Back to it. the witch is back

Hmm, well today is Wednesday and I’m tired. Its been a long fucking week so far with talking to my boss about my performance appraisal and all that crap. That wasn't fun. And then we are trying to get this software patch out the door so people in places to do stuff that’s really important...to them. But that looks to be all done and now we are back on track to the other deadline to get the regular release out the door. But there has certainly been no time to relax at all here at the office. Dammit. I am still on the Erasure kick and listening to all that. Such cheesy good music full of memories. Mostly of Tracks. Erasure was one of the crowd pleasers that made everyone get out and dance. I miss tracks. I like nation but I loved Tracks. Play is going well. I had an off night last night where no matter how hard I tried I wasn't able to make the director happy with what I was doing. I'm kind of annoyed at that. Hopefully tonight will be different. But in bad news, well for me anyway, there was this guy who was in the show who seemed genuinely cool and funny and I found out last night that he left. The guy replacing him is cool and I have worked with him before but Brian was just a fun person to be around. He's in a show now in Gaithersburg somewhere and some of is were going to try and make it this Friday. But I already have plans for Friday and I don’t want to cancel and I can't go Saturday because I am photographing a friends mom's 60th b-day and Saturday is the last night. Need more time in the day....

Ok, Cameron Diaz is playing a nun in the next Charlie's Angel movie. Um, boing! I think the guy at Dark Horizons says it best: (Cameron Diaz as a nun? The sound of fanboy Calvin Klein underwear ripping from expansion is rather deafening right now). I love that site :)

,"Yes kids that's right, the newsletter for Velvet says that Madonnarama will be coming again on April 5th! Tell your friends and plan to be there!!

2003-03-13 10:20:00 When you know than you ever wanted to....

Hey, would anyone be looking to live in Bethesda anytime soon. A room may be opening in my house and I may need a roommate. Just curious.

2003-03-20 11:33:00 friendship

Yeah, so I am going to apologize in advance and postvance (new word!) to all the friends that are getting annoyed...no I think that’s the wrong word becoming disappointed with the lack of time that I have to spend with them. This is a surprisingly large number and it distresses me. Especially because my loyalty to the friendship is in question. This hurts. No I do not have the time to do all the things that I want but I'm doing things that make me happy or I'm stuck at work, can I express how this war is impacting my work - oh wait no I can't LOL, but just know that I think about you all and will have the time to hang out and chill or whatever. Cut me a little slack.

Happy Birthday to me

2003-03-28 10:56:00 I’m thinking of a number between 69 and ... no, wait that’s it

So I have a cute joke but I realize I don't know how to type it cause it's all based on how you listen to it. Did that make sense? This Atkins diet is freaking making me tired. Anyway: What do Saddam and Little Miss Muffet have in common? They both have Kurds in their Way (Whey). *insert forced laughter here*"

So like I eating this really awesome Atkins Advantage bar that my friend Kelley gave me and the thing is sooooooo gooooood. The fact that the thing is like a paste is a little disconcerting but I can get over that. This weekend was the MCTFA (or some odd arrangement of letters) which was some kind of theatre competition blah blah. Anyway, my friend Kelley was directing one of the shows and I had a part in it by freak circumstance of the original male lead being called off for other obligations. So about three weeks ago I stepped in and took over. I really hope it went as well as she hoped it would. I felt that it was a good show. Course that could be the kinda thing like when you finish a test and feel really good about it and when you get it back you totally screwed the pooch. But it was a fun experience. There were four other shows Saturday and two on Friday. I didn't see the Friday nights shows but the majority of the other ones on Saturday were pretty scary. One totally sucked. One bored me. One I had seen before. And the last was pretty good but the actors need more focus. ANYWAY...it's over. Why was there snow yesterday? I'm still baffled."
