woooohooooo! banana margaritas!

the great thing about skipping town is the procession of family dinners that ensue once you give notice that you're leaving. everyone wants to get out and make merry with you. tonight was a margarita free for all with julie and mr. tony, tim and mary, and karen from the paper. we laughed so damn hard and had a faboo time. i'm going to miss all those dinners when i get to no friend's land. who else will understand the announcement that "I"M WALKING!" after i've had a few? geez, i guess i should get all my liquor in now. drinking alone means you're an alcoholic, right? speaking of scooby doo (as scott's little girl would say - and thanks for that wonderful interjection into our lexicon, by the way), there's one more big blowout this weekend with all the art fag theatre geeks. ought to be a rage. EEE!

things they are a-churning. tim and mary's pod goes away tomorrow, as well as tim. boo, hiss, sniffle. i suppose they are in their now-unfurnished duplex at this very moment being weepy and cute together. i'm over here looking at my to do list with a sigh of "oh well piss on that" and shuffling boxes around. there is good news, though. many more boxes and things left the house today, never to return! i made those people at the library very happy with donations and office supplies, not to mention actually paying all my late fees.

oh, and my candidate won the mayoral race. let's hope she doesn't fuck it up now.

pop culture alert! i saw midgets on SO NOTORIOUS! yes, i should probably be ashamed of myself for being fixated, but i swear it's in a really good way. or should i be more ashamed of my vh1 watching habits? either way, i'm starting to believe that the term guilty pleasure is for the birds. bring on the trashy magazines! but i'm still not going to watch american idol, no matter how much nick and megan tell me about it. i CAN be hoghbrow, too, ya know. i even have the eiffel tower kleenexes to prove it.

ahhhh, one more weekend of the show to go. a nice review using the word astonishing - wheeeeee! time to go relearn my lines so i don't look like a big jackass on thursday. wasn't i supposed to be packing?
