I will still go dressed up to the nines when I go to The Ritz.

I love getting dressed up it's fun, it just made me a little sad that people don't dress up for things much now.

At this very moment my head is kind of spinning. My school made my schedule for a full time load, not part time like I'd requested from the start! So I called them to talk about things and now they need to re-work my schedule + re-mail it. This is fucking awesome! It means that I will get out of Chemistry or Medical Terminology. Would prefer to put off Chem, but either way not having both helps tremendously.

Also, one of our cats knocked over a lamp and broke the base off it and the bulb! Had to do a paranoid sweep only clean up because my man is sleeping, just off a night shift.

Preparing for aerobics. Yet another Monday evening of leaping about like a loon to awful dance music , hitching knees to the ceiling and flinging arms about while trying not to let my boobs and gut do the charleston all by themselves.. Sadly no, this isn't Scottish dancing, this is flinging myself about in a roomfull of a mix of middle aged women , and women I wish wouldn't be in front of me because I envy their shapes and don't want to have them in my face for the next hour.

That all sounds so familiar, I wish they would have some decent music for the routines. At least the music might make up for the fact my chest is trying to wrestle out of the so called sports bras and I get confused and go the wrong direction and crash in to everyone else and they always look at you like your doing it on purpose.

My teacher has a habit of suddenly changing the routine without warning. I'm kind of used to it now though.I would actually do more clsses of some sort, but they are almost all on during the day when I'm at work :_(

Trying to find that episode of "Insomniac" where Dave Attell interrupts some vampire larping session.

Avoiding going to bed by working out my budget. That sounds like a responsible thing to do but basically I'm calculating how after Christmas gifts and groceries, how much do I have left over for manga and yoga.

Alot of it. My thoughts are wandering around and getting cloudy, and I feel great about it while having no idea why; however, thanks to my strict English teachers I've had in the past, it's not effecting my grammar and punctuation.

Vodka-cran sounds nice about now. Could kill some of the monotony of work.

Good, I've been a few times and I have never been disappointed. Sure it isn't cheap but you're paying for an experience and the experience lasts for a few hours (I think last time I went we were there for about three hours) and both the food and the tea is of quite exceptional quality so you do get your money's worth.

I'm the same way. About two years ago Jake and I went to the Virginia Opera (his parents gave us tickets for our anniversary) and well as I was getting ready I just kept thinking that I didn't really have anything appropriate for the event as I only had relatively simple (and inexpensive) dresses but when I got there I was appalled by how far above average my dress was, there were people there in jeans and polos, some people had even been turned away because they were wearing tattered pants and tank tops. It was the opera for goodness sake, you would think that people would have the sense to dress up a bit.


As for what I am doing now: I'm sitting around in my PJs drinking hot coco.

Ha, that made reading this thread worth it.

Terribly responsible.

I'm about to make a coffee and go back to preparing for my Latin test this morning.

Debating whether I want to go and get Jake's Christmas present now or if I want to dye my hair now and get his present later.

About to go home so I can draw out a 'caligari' themed backdrop for the film me and my friend David are making.
