16 February
Man, I am so ready for spring.
On Friday it was 65°, and Saturday it was 35°--yesterday it was cold but sunny and clear, and last night they threatened snow in the next couple of days on the 11 o'clock news!
Spring spring spring...I want warmth and sun and going out without a coat and lying in the park. I want flowering plants at the farmer's market at Union Square and street fairs and ice cream. I want to stop complaining about the cold and not yet start complaining about the heat.
Spriiiiiiiiing...
So my date last night with Nik fell through.
I got up at 7.30a so that I could get into work by 9a (I actually made it by 9.40a) so that I could leave early and have a nice long evening, but when he called at 4p, he broke the date.
I couldn't really get angry (well, I could) but he decided not to go out at all because he had started writing his paper that is due Wednesday, and had really gotten into a writing groove.
This is a good reason, and I did hear typing in the background, so I know he wasn't bullshitting me. Dates, no, education, yes! I'm not certain that I agree with this reasoning, but I already have my degree.
"You mean I got up at 7.30a for nothing? Why I have been putting up with you for nine months? Lack of options is the only reason I can come up with. Well, at least you'd better feel bad!"
He promised to not get as much work done as he would have otherwise, what with feeling so bad and everything.
A couple of leftover Valentines things--I got two Valentines in the mail, and I didn't troll for them or anything, one from Jan and one from VJ!
Thanks guys! I thought it was very sweet.
And I also got a package from my Mom with this really cute, tiny clear plastic purse with black and white daisies on it filled with mint candies. Fuck the candies, though, this purse is a mod dream.
Can't wait for it to be summer so that I can use it!
Also, I must bow down to Pamie for her Valentine entry. In fact, all must worship Pamie! Bow down, you dogs!
Bad news, Jay and Amy have gone the way of the passenger pigeon.
Amy just won what is basically the on-line Oscar, so of course she took down her site a couple of weeks later. Actually, that's the kind of thing that she does all the time--she does something brilliant, loathes it, tears it down in a fit of self-hatred, and then does something even more brilliant. I wonder what she'll come up with next?
And Jay just needs slapping.
Don't people know that once they make the commitment to entertaining me, they must continue until they drop dead? People don't spend nearly enough time thinking about my needs. The bastards.
In good news, though, Juan is back!
Today's horoscope:
Shared ideas contribute to getting things accomplished, but don't carry this focus to the extreme of petty gossip or mindless chatter.
