Things on the home front are quiet. Nothing is going not that is a big deal aside from me cycling, but we have a new med dosage for that. I am looking forward to having D home for the long weekend. I feel like we haven't had
D just told me that I won't be able to get to Comic Con this year.:( Here is where I whine. I never want to go anywhere and the few places I want to go never work out and I am so sick of it. I get dragged to all these bullshit places I never want to go to and I hardly complain at all and then the 2 or 3 places I want to go don't work. Like TBS is in Anaheim on the 6/3 and I won't be able to go because of traffic. It fucking sucks. /end whinge, sorry for the tantrum.
I read two trashy romances this week. It's nice to read. I miss it. I have been picking romances because they don't
So I think I want to make some wishes and mayne anyone who reads this could combine their good thoughts and help make my wishes come true, I wish I could go to Comic Con for Thursday and see the New Moon Panel. I wish I could get BlizzCon tickets. I wish that Anya gets WotLK soon so she could hang out with us in Dal. I wish Mand gets a chance to do what he really wants to do. I wish T would come back because I need a break from being in charge. And I wish that I could do more things by myself so that Mand could raid and I could do more than sit and twiddle my thumbs.
Oh and this,,,
I have been caught in a trap and Voxing has been the last thing on my mind but I promised myself that today I was going to do it. A little too much questing and a little too little living in the real world. My life is really in the toilet.
I've been doing a real little of reading. I'm reading You Will Know Our Velocity! in 15 page segments. Jason is going to get the impression that I don't want to read it at all, which just isn't true. I just have this buggy personality and when I obsess it takes up all my energy. I haven't been able to concentrate at all. Of course I'm going to devour City of Glass when it comes out a week from tomorrow. Oh my god am I excited. And in my feed this morning was a Rachel Caine update about Fade Out the 7th Morganville Vampire book. The cover design to the left. So she has the next two books in the box. Oh Shane, I'm wishing happy things for you.
Class has been more interesting. I still think my prof is a tool but I really liked the video we watched in the last class. I liked the debate of Intelligent Design/Creationism and Evolution. Go Evolution go! I'm eager to see what happens in class tomorrow. I hope we actually start learning about something other than religion and politics though. D needs to know about psychology before he goes to grad school.
April is coming soon and we have Portland and Shanny and then Nielle will be coming to visit. Oh fun everyway around. Speaking of Shannon she took the pic to the left and I loved it so much that I snagged it for in here. She is so awesome. And Nielle... when she comes here we are going to do the RenFaire in Irwindale. I'm hoping we can do it on a day when Belle can come too. Note to self: remind D to buy plane tickets.
I haven't been watching hockey but I have been playing fantasy hockey and my team beat James for the first time all year last week. WOOT! D tells me that Chris Kunitz is playing well in Pittsburgh and Ovie is edging in on the 50 spot for goals this year. Go boy! Do DC proud. I can't wait until Thanksgiving this year when we will be in DC and I have high hopes that we can see a live caps game.
I woke up an hour ago singing the Canadian national anthem. I don't know why but it's stuck in my head. Maybe it is a little leftover from seeing the hockey game on Thursday night. The flames prevailed to win it with a 2-0 shutout. Belle enjoyed her first game. Paul and Amanda had a good time too I think. Ollie was over the moon because his team one. I think Mikey was just drunk. I was happy because I got to see a whole minute of Dion playing the way Dion played last year. I have to glean my Dion happiness wherever I can. I'm still a fan but man he is tanked this season. Only a week a way from watching the Sharks play. My Torrey jersey came. I swim in it but I am happy about it all the same. Go Torrey. I hope you might be back in time for Saturday's game.
So WoW is going well, although I think I have been a lvl32 forever. We did the Gnomeregen and that went well although a lot of heals. I have been thinking a lot about guilds and the last few days we have run a couple dungeons with his guildees and they haven't been asshats. I am just afraid to commit. I don't want to choose poorly. I have it in my mind that once I pick that's it for life. I know that isn't true but I still think that. I'm interested in where our next dungeon mission will be.
Speaking of guilds, I finally caught up on the Guild. The one before last I watched when I was falling asleep. I remember only bits and pieces clearly which is a shame when it is only 5 minutes long. There was a part with Clara and Tink selling Codex that was pretty horrifically funny. The last Guild was pretty good. I think Zaboo stole it for me and Vork and Bladezz talking to him about the duel was hilarious. Of course the entire show is a bunch more funny now that I'm playing WoW. The dynamic is better understood if you know from where they are coming from.
I'm still reading the Eggers book with Jason. It's going pretty well. I have a strange resistance for Will's thinking when we are submersed in his head. Jason's right, it is all very Kafka-esque and I'm not sure that I like that much of Kafka. I still like Hand though. Eggers has these phrases and these statements that I love. He was right. He was a titan. We were again golden. I just love the imagery it brings to mind for me. I won't get to the next park until tomorrow, as D and I are going to spend the day playing WoW.
It's been raining a lot lately. LA floods and it gets chilly. I kind of love it. Right now it's coming down and I have the blinds open so I can look out. Of course being who I am, I want to look at it but I don't want to be out in it.
There is a lot of hockey coming up. Thursday there will be a group of us going to see the Flames at the Kings. Mikey and Ollie will be meeting up with D, Belle and I and D said Paul and his girlfriend will be coming too. I am excited to see Chris because I haven't seen him since 2001/02 when he drove through Chico. I haven't seen Mikey since 2000. Then the weekend after next D and I will be driving up to SJ to see the Sharks play the Thrashers. I'll have my Torrey jersey then and we will fit in with all the Shark heads. I can't wait. Hockey in the day and WoW in a random hotel room with a jacuzzi at night. Heaven.
My sisters birthday was yesterday and she turned 13. A teenager. Now is the time where she starts to no longer make sense right? I hope that isn't the case. I do wish that I was home for her birthday. It's so hard being so far away. My mom said I got her too much for her birthday, but I feel I need to make up for not being there for her, Phone calls don't matter much in the end.
So it's been a while and it keeps slipping my mind to make mention of it but... I guess they offered Dakota Fanning the part of Jane in New Moon and I love the girl so all the more power to them getting her. I would like Taylor Lautner to grow a foot as well. Which one is more likely?
I'm almost done with City of Ashes at the gym. My theory of the week is that Simon lived through the sun coming up because he had Jace's blood in him and Jace is, as Valentine is the first to admit, altered. Only 53 more days until City of Glass. I can't wait. You can't begin to understand what a fiend I am for The Mortal Instruments. I love Jace to pieces. Oh I got too excited thinking about it. I want to jump up and down. If I could take only 3 books with me to the moon it would be these three. And I beat myself a bit because I bought the book, City of Bones, and didn't read it for two months. I could have fell in love that much sooner. Wasted time reading other books. When these are my soul mates. Speaking of soul mates. I realize that I owe Belle an apology. I finished The Vampire Academy and I didn't hate it. Once the school makes Rose cry I liked the book much more. And I do ship Rose and Dimitri even though I think I got spoiled for his fate and if it is so then I will go back to not liking the series much. I liked Christian and Mason right up to
So as I sit here, post finished, listening to Taking Back Sunday, I feel unable to close it out and have that be all. I've been feeling, and being more vocal, about this ever growing feeling of disenchantment with my life. I miss writing. It just feels like words are utilitarian now--they've lost their ability to mean deeper things. I'm feeling more detached. Distance seems to be growing between me and friends. The world is leached of real joy and in it's place is all these black and white things. Objects really, nothing personified. It makes me feel like hiding more behind things I can lose myself in, just so I can forget how little of life I live. And there is only one or two people that I can talk to because of these chasms that have leapt up where once I had faith in friends. They are just strangers who spend their lives in other worlds that don't even rub up against mine. I'm not even lonely really, I'm just utterly alone. No feelings but anger and fear, no dreams past reading books, nothing can make me happy. I don't see why people like me even exist. We find life support so we don't die but we don't have anything to live for. No future. It seems pathetic.
