Breaking My Silence

I have been meaning to update this for a very long time. The only thing is that my ideas have mostly been stupid - like the fact that I'm still quite chaste. Actually, not so - I just broke that! But more about that another time...

Anyway, the reason I'm breaking my silence is because Michael Jackson is dead. It's very sad. I'm now listening to You Are Not Alone. 5 bucks says either that or Gone Too Soon will become "Michael Jackson has died" anthems...

And now for a moment of silence (now that I've broken MY silence... lol)...

I'm Fucking Carrie

I just realized that I'm Carrie in the Sex and the City, Season 2, episode 4: They Shoot Single People, Don't They? That's the episode where Carrie parties and is then late to the photo shoot for "Single and Fabulous?" I was the offensive question mark today. Only I wasn't partying - I was sadly working...

I hate that I'm Carrie. I'd rather be Miranda faking orgasms with the cute eye doctor...

murphy's law morning

I had to teach a class today at 8:10am. I set 5 alarms: 6:15, 6:30, 6:45, 6:50, and 7am. I woke up to my friend texting me at 8:14am. My phone (3 of the alarms) was under my pillow.

Then the DVD player in the classroom refused to work.

Now I'm home, and I just realized that my sweater was inside out.

This day needs to get better.

Back in Philly, Back in Hell

I have no motivation right now. I'm so behind in my work, and I am feeling nothing. *sigh*

Not My Best San Fran Trip...

I have been to San Francisco several times and each time I have a blast. I think that because of how rushed my trip is this year, and how much other crap I have to do, this trip is just not the same...

I may need to join Facebook. That really upsets me. I need to keep in touch with people here in San Francisco more easily. I'm not sure I want to stay with the same friends as I did this time. They were a couple, but recently not. I wanted to hang out with one, but he has pretty much avoided us and that sucks. The other one has been awkwardly hitting on me (especially last night because he was basically drunk) and I have no sexual interest in him whatsoever.

Now, I'm sitting in a hipster coffee shop, working and waiting for a friend. I really don't like hipsters. I had to wait three minutes for service because the barista was outside having a smoke. I asked for a spinach empanada and I got a beef one. It was still good, so I didn't bother complain or send it back - thankfully I'm a meat-eater! Now I'm typing in my laptop like the rest of these pretentious people. And are they all students, or is this a product of the recession, with lots of unemployed people just sitting around their laptops in a coffeeshop??? I hope that I don't look like them. My clothes are way more trendy... Ick - I'm one of them... At least the decor is really nice....

Why I'm Not Out Partying

I am exhausted. I just can't. And dinner cost more than I anticipated.

Also, my friends' friend dissed my shoes. He is now dead to me. Don't diss my shoes. Don't mock the shoes.

Treating Myself Right

This past week, I was in San Diego for a conference and stayed at the Westin. The hotel was beautiful, but I've really decided that I hate how four-star hotels charge money for Wifi. It was 10 bucks a day! I so did not pay that.

So how am I pampering myself now? I'm in San Francisco and my friends have the BioBidet - i.e. the electric toilet seat! And I definitely tried the enema spray and the posterior spray. I kind of want to try the front spray (allegedly for women) and the dryer. I must admit, it is totally weird to have a heated toilet seat...
