koncupiscencecontrary to appearances, i've actually had a really good weekend, despite a mess of wonky emotions (thanks, period!). i really wish my body didn't react like this each month, the fuck-it-all feelings and overdramatics. it's such a fucking lame cliche, but it seems to be getting worse the older i get. JOY! but anyhow, i really did have a good weekend. ;)
+ friday i went out with my friend victor for tasty mexican and margaritas, and then we went back to his for cervezas and eddie izzard's 'dressed to kill', which HE HAD SOMEHOW NEVER SEEN. it was fantastic getting to hear him laugh his ass off for the first time from DO YOU HAVE A FLAG, CAKE OR DEATH, and SLUT BINWALLA to my personal favorite, BECAUSE THERE'S A FUCKING H IN IT. :DDD good times, good times.
+ i knew i was going to be out sunday, so i allowed myself saturday for total slothing. watched several hours of angel (shocker) and started knitting a scarf for my friend's birthday (which was a few weeks ago, whoops). it's coming along nicely, i'm excited.
i'm doing a seed stitch, which i've never done before. i really like the way it looks. and when you hold it up to the light, you can kind of see through it a bit, somewhat lacey-like. i thought it might be good for a light-weight southern california scarf.
+ sunday i met up with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
azewewish and company for a fantastic brunch in hollywood! it was a gorgeous day, a great time was had, and i ate THE MOST DELICIOUS GRILLED CHEESE IN THE WORLD. three types of cheese grilled between RAISIN BREAD. the sweet with the salty. *HANDS* omg. i can't stop thinking about it. nommmmm. we also discovered that it's a small little fandom world. callsigns, everybody says HI!! :D (unfortunately i fail bc i don't remember everybody's LJ name. /o\ brenda, halp!)
after brunch i spent the afternoon with my friend barbara, and her two little boys before and after their naptimes. it had been far too long since we'd seen each other. i always say i won't let so much time pass until the next time, but then time passes and i don't see her for months. ugh, must work on that. it's always so great seeing her.ruckiss, she says HI! ♥ unfortunately i forgot my camera so i didn't get pictures of the boys. :( they're fucking adorable, though. i got to play peak-a-boo with the little one, and the older one and i read a book together.
+ today was brunch again, this time with the parents. it wasn't bad, but it didn't even compare to yesterday's. SIGH. brunch has clearly been ruined for me from here on out. ;) then there was more knitting, more angel, and there should be some cleaning, but... instead there is interneting. WHADYA GONNA DO. (incidentally, i'm kind of bummed that i'm not enjoying angel as much as i thought i would. i think i'm just trying to hurry up and get to season five. connor was just taken into the hell dimension or whatever, so now i've got episode after episode of wesley being separated from the gang. and i hate it. angel and wesley apart, it's just not right. and knowing that next season is the jasmine/connor season. uuuuuuuugh, DNW. but there is illyria to look forward to. and then SPIKE in s5. :D maybe i'm just more of a buffy girl, afterall.)
it really is so good to get out and hang with friends. even the driving part, i love just getting to where i'm going, shoes off, singing my lungs out. i missed that part so much when i lived in nyc. i guess it's a trade-off. nyc had reading on the train. cali has singing loudly in the car.
my word, another post without a frank mention. i'll make up for that in a minute! DON'T YOU WORRY. :D
