Holy fuck I'm a self-indulgent dumbass. Hey

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

I'm so sorry I forgot to tell you earlier when I saw you at the movies!

Actually I've been so intent on staring up my own ass lately that I've pretty much forgotten all y'all who have had birthdays in November. So to

anzovin,

timarok,

bellarisa,

extrajoker,

rhipowered, and

birkwelch

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY!!!

*sigh* so yeah, I've been doing I suppose the backwards version of navel gazing this month I think... and it's kinda getting past the point where "wedding" is no longer a good excuse. Blargh. Really I just need to confront the fact that I'm fast becoming an antisocial old biddy. Seriously, the only reason the amoeba even sees me these days is because the Internets are over here in the form of

anzovin's laptop. If I had a computer I'd never leave the bolthole. Honestly there are days when that fact doesn't bother me, and that bothers me. :) Interesting conundrum, no?

Seriously though - I do need a new compy. Something capable of running WoW well enough so that I no longer have to strategically plan flightpaths and money around avoiding IF like the plague, cause the Commons has bluescreen-of-death'ed

anzovin's laptop enough times so that if I HAVE to go in there I use

morlock's machine.

Meh. In other news... tomorrow I have my lone honest-to-goodness day off this weekend. It's sort of amazing how knowing you have to work later on can really condemn a day to sheer pissiness. I know it doesn't have to, but I kinda woke up in a bad mood and it just sorta continued on into the rest of the day, just sort of this solipsistic cycle of feeling sorry for myself and moping about stuff, at one point badly enough to make me fall asleep and nearly miss the bus to get to work. Lucky for me, there was much about today to distract me from my own head:

I watched The Wiz this afternoon. *chuckle* Okay, I've seen it perhaps ten million times but it had been years since the last time. Long enough for me to notice things I hadn't before (like how did I miss that Michael Jackson's nose was made out of a Reeses Peanut Butter Cup wrapper? wait, isn't it still?), long enough to have forgotten how much Diana Ross got on my last gay nerve (as opposed to the straight ones) throughout it, and how much the little flute tune that accompanies the homeless peddler still scares the shit out of me even though I'm grown up. Also I don't think I've watched it since 9/11 - the bit in the "Emerald City" got me in the "Aw." spot. Good times... and "Don't Nobody Bring Me No Bad News" still makes me smile. A lot.
I now possess Fanfare Ciocărlia's "Asfalt Tango." Fabulousness. I need to do some belly dance to it. I also need to get the Borat soundtrack, because their cover of" Born to Be Wild" is high-larious. All classic rock should be covered by 12 piece Gypsy brass bands. In Romanian. Yes.
I saw htl_1126, drklord1922 and the other Jason at the theater while I was working. And drklord1922 said the reason my line was so long is because everyone wanted to be helped by the prettiest girl in concessions. Blush.
Ran into myburningviolin on break in the food court, where we had a war council/bitch session about the horrors of retail.
Brian G. gave me a lift home after closing. Actually I wasn't supposed to work until close tonight, but since the buses are on the let's screw Andee out of getting home at a reasonable hour schedule, I offered to stay until close in exchange for the ride. Which worked out because one of the people actually scheduled to close got to leave and thus did not miss his girlfriend performing in Rocky Horror tonight.
On said ride home, I was introduced to Disturbed's cover of Genesis' "Land of Confusion." OMG. I must have that song. I mean, okay, don't kill me but I really do like the original (yes, I willingly listen to Phil Collins, stfu) but Disturbed covering that song is made of so much awesome it's sick. *chuckle* see, that's another thing - if i had a 5G ipod, I would love to trade with Brian G for a couple of days. His taste in music seems to be exactly as messed up as mine is, with the exception that he runs more to metal where I run more to goth/industrial, but the rest of the stuff is pretty congruent.
I came home to find sundart waiting up for me. I am asquee with the lovins.

So yeah... I just have to remember that it really isn't all bad most of the time. I've just been in very negative headspace lately and it's hard to shake that. I need to though - lately I've even lost my will to write... and you know if I'm not constantly bitching into LJ, something's really wrong.

So sleepy. Off to toss my carcass into a bed.
